I thought Grafx2 was the Deluxe Paint clone? And don't forget VGAPaint/386!

BTW, I came across another suite for DOS (w/ TP7 units, no srcs yet, Romanian docs, but quite good font selection):

Graph256
= The pascal graphic library (pascal source code) - Supports all functions available in the standard Borland Pascal graphic library (graph.tpu). In addition it provides mouse support. It has some nice functions for font manipulations (write in an angle, etc.). Unfortunately some of the algorithms (like fill for example) are poorly optimized.
= Super Picture - a painting tool (a little bit more advanced than MS Paint)
= A bit map font editor

P.S. The author seems interested in feedback (esp. before deciding whether to make any updates).
