All right reserved.
Amiga Message Center was written as an extension of several other
programs I was currently working on. The directions are simple and thus:
1> Compose a text file containing whatever information you want to
scroll. This can be accomplished using any text processor, word
processor, editor or by using the built in editor features of whatever
console window you are currently working on.
2> All text must be composed using all UPPERCASE characters (Ascii
65-90) as well as additional characters from Ascii 32 (space) to Ascii
64 (@). All characters out of the bounds of Ascii to 32-90 will be
printed as Ascii 32 (Space).
3> Use the "Load Text" menu function to load the finished text file.
If your file is longer than the maximum 1000 bytes, it will be
trunctuated to the maximum.
4> The "Save File" menu function will then save your text file, along
with the player program into whatever file you specify. This file will
now run completely on it's own, without this program. It can be copied,
uploaded or perform just as any other DOS file.
5> If there is an error during any of the operations performed while
you are creating your message, AMC will "Beep" the screen and inform
you that there is a problem. If all went well, AMC will inform you
your request has been successfully performed.
If there is enough support and demand to justify additional work on
this program, there are several other features that could be added,
including 1: adding IFF pictures as a backdrop. 2: Inclusion of Sound. 3:
Full color scrolling as on the "ABOUT" menu feature. 4: Color Selection.
5: Additional Font Selection. etc... etc... etc...
If you'd like to make a donation, suggestion, or just a comment, I'd
like to here from you!
