WHAT'S NEW SINCE V1.0 ?
Completely new user-interface and it now creates smaller executables.
WHAT IS COLORCATCH ?
Have you ever needed to be able to change the colors of a screen
in no time ? - if you have, then you could use ColorCatch. ColorCatch
lets you grab the colors (all 32) from the frontmost screen and save
them to disk as an executable file, which, when it is run, puts these
colors back onto the frontmost screen.
HOW TO START COLORCATCH
From CLI : Type '
ColorCatch
' and press RETURN.
There is
NO
need to use
RUN
,
RUNBACK
,
ARUN
etc.
ColorCatch is auto-detaching when run from CLI (It
will not prevent you from closing the CLI-window).
From Workbench: Double-click on the '
ColorCatch
' icon.
NOTE: The executables created by ColorCatch can also be started from
both CLI and Workbench. Even if you don't use ColorCatch to create
an icon for the executable file, you can always give it an icon of
your own choice.
HOW TO END COLORCATCH
Click on the normal closewindow gadget.
HOW TO USE COLORCATCH
ColorCatch opens a window looking something like this:

COMPATABILITY !
ColorCatch has been tested under kickstart 1.2, 1.3 and 2.x on a
2.5 MB 68000 based Amiga 1000 (0.5 MB chip-ram). If any problems is
encountered with other configurations then let me know.
