- Scribble 1.0d1
- by Chris Derossi and Darin Adler
- MacHack ’91
-
- Scribble is a system extenstion (okay, INIT) which lets you
- paint into your Finder windows under System 7.0. Things that
- you paint are persistent; if you close the window or restart, the
- picture will be in the window when you open it again.
-
- In version 1.0d1 we’ve included a pencil, eraser, paintbrush,
- and erase-all tool. (The erase-all tool will go away when
- Scribble has a palette and you can double-click the eraser.)
-
- To use Scribble, type Command-Plus to cycle through the
- painting tools. The cursor will change if it’s over the paintable
- area of a Finder window. Typing Command-Minus will turn
- off the painting tools. So you know that Scribble is listening,
- you get a beep each time you change tools.
-
- If you want to edit your window pictures in other paint
- programs, you can. Save the picture as a PICT
- resource in a file called FinderWindowBackground. The
- picture will be displayed in the window for the folder where
- you’ve saved the file.
-
-
- Known Bugs:
- There are some cosmetic bugs, but we haven’t found any
- crashing bugs (in 10 minutes of testing…).
- This version of Scribble is a little memory-hungry. You can
- reduce the amount of memory used by Scribble by
- putting your main screen into 1-bit mode while
- booting.
-
-
- Scribble is in progress. Future versions will support color,
- more tools, a floating palette, copy, cut, paste, clear, and even
- undo.
