- Program to animate busy pointer.
- .description
- What is this Sleep stuff ??
-
- Well, have you ever work on WindowsNT and saw the animated busy
- pointers?
-
- "Gosh, my Amiga is better than a PeeCe and my Workbench only shows a
- little-tiny stopped busy pointer!"
-
- You may say: "use PointerX, or LacePointer"
-
- no way : PointerX only shows a ugly bysypointer in lowres !!!
-
- You can also say: "use PatchPointer to make the busypointer hires."
- Ok ... try it and you will see the busypointer becomes stopped!
- Damn ...
-
- LacePointer in other way only works in screenmodes of PAL/NTSC. If
- you have a brand new AGA amiga, that is in MULTISCAN or DBLPAL, or
- something else, no LacePointer.
-
- Those little problems, motivated me to program SleepingPointers.
- After some time, SleepingPointers has born!
-
- Now, animated busy pointers in hires is easy.
-
- If i receive enough feedback, i will do a Prefs Program so that you
- can load you favourite ANIMATION/ANIMBRUSH of a busy pointer and use
- it!
