This is Leo Schwab's entry for the Badge Killer Demo Contest, as sent
to me by contest coordinator Tomas Rokicki. Below is Leo's original
README file. The information about running Marketroid therein applies
only to running from a CLI, as Tomas has set things up such that
Marketroid can be run from the workbench using Xicon.

======================================================================
'Marketroid' uses custom fonts. Therefore, for the program to
operate correctly, you must reassign the FONTS: directory. Execute the
following command at the 1> prompt to do this:
assign fonts: Marketroid:fonts
An alternative would be to copy the needed custom fonts into your
current FONTS: directory. This may be done with the command:
copy Marketroid:fonts fonts: all
This done, you may now run 'Marketroid'. Note that, if you
reassigned FONTS:, the FONTS: directory will continue to point to a
different place, and programs run after 'Marketroid' may not be able to
find the fonts they need.
'Marketroid' takes a single option, '-o'. This is the "obscene"
option. By default, 'Marketroid' uses tame language in all places,
suitable even for small children. By supplying the -o option, one of the
printed messages changes to something that might offend some people. Hence,
the option. The author thinks the message in question is more effective
if the -o option is supplied. You decide. -- Schwab
