"Fantastic. 25 years after it was first written for the Mac, Apple has chosen donate the source code of MacPaint and QuickDraw to the Computer History Museum, making one of the earliest and most efficient pieces of art software ever available to public scrutiny for the first time ever."

This program was released in 1984, and now if you want to see what's behind the screen, you can. The Computer History Museum has a page set up with interesting background information on MacPaint and QuickDraw, as well as the source code.
