- ADVENT. V1.01
-
- Thank you for looking at the Advent system.
- Remember Advent is Shareware. If you continue to use Advent
- you should register it, as described at the beginning of the
- user manual, ADVMAN.DOC.
-
-
- NOTE:
-
- Registration entitles you to assistance (by EMail or
- post only), update information, and the right to distribute
- games created with Advent.
- A printed copy of the manual will be supplied on registration
- ONLY IF IT IS REQUESTED. Save trees!
-
-
- As this is an early release version of Advent, I feel
- I must apologise in advance for any problems or bugs that you
- come across.
-
- A program can never be tested thoroughly enough, and although
- I must have found most of the major bugs, there may well be a
- few more that haven't yet come to light.
-
- If you think you have found a bug, or even if you would like to
- comment on any other aspect of Advent, please E-Mail or write
- to me.
-
- Only if I get feedback from people like you will I be able to
- improve the next version of Advent.
-
- I already have a number of very exciting ideas for Advent V2.
- The system will use a new interpreter engine, and be very
- powerful in language and object handling. The system will retain
- compatibility with version 1.0 of Advent, and add countless
- new functions.
-
- What language extensions or other features would you like to
- see?

-
- NOTES:
-
- You can run Advent in a DOS window under Microsoft Windows 3.1.
- (Not tested under version 3.0, but I imagine it will work.)
- You may need to use the /q command line switch to put Advent
- into quiet mode, as sound handling seems a little odd under
- Windows.
