Actually... That was Paintbrush in Win 3.1 (and WFW3.11). I don't
remember when they changed the name to just Paint, but it was probably
Windows 95.


Actually, it was MS Paint in Win 1.0.

.... and referred to as such thereafter, if not officially named. A rose
by any other name ...



According to an article on Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ms_Paint

"The first version of Paint was introduced with the first version of
Windows, Windows 1.0. It was later renamed to Paintbrush in Windows 3.0,
but the name was changed back to Paint in Windows 95 and later."

Basically what I said ... but Wiki trumps all practical knowledge, eh?
