-
- INTRODUCTION
- ============
-
- Biorhythms allow you to predict how you (or anyone else!) will be
- feeling on any particular date. To make a prediction for somebody, all
- you need to know is their birthday. Predictions can be made for any
- date in the past, present or future. This program will even interpret
- the charts for you, to tell you what they mean in real terms.
-
- Also includes a comparison feature, allowing you to compare how two
- people will be feeling on any particular date to see how similar they
- are.
-
-
- INSTALLATION
- ============
-
- This program is fully compatible with all EPOC machines, including
- Psion S5/5mx, Revo, S7, Oregon Scientific Osaris, etc. Charts are shown
- in full colour on machines with colour screens.
-
- Installation uses approx 36K of disk space.
-
- Simply select BIORHYTHMS.SIS to install it on your Psion, and everything
- should be installed for you automatically.
-
- Biorhythms uses the following additional modules, which are supplied
- with the program as SIS files:
-
- AGENDA2.SIS (Agenda2.opx V5.0, by Symbian Ltd)
- SYSRAM1.SIS (Sysram1.opx V1.0, by Symbian Ltd)
-
- If you haven't installed these on your system yet, or if you are using
- earlier versions of these modules, then you will need to install them
- before you can use Biorhythms. Again all you need to do is select their
- SIS files and they will be installed automatically.

- VERSION HISTORY
- ===============
-
- (Most recent changes first...)
-
- V2.1 (24.06.00)
-
- - The birthday database is now used in the New Chart screen,
- instead of only being available as a separate function.
- This means that the birthday database can now be used with
- comparison charts, as well as biorhythm charts.
-
- - New prefs option: A today marker can now be displayed on
- the charts.
-
- - The ages are now shown on comparison charts, as well as
- biorhythm charts.
-
- - New prefs option: Your age can now be displayed as number
- of days, number of weeks, or number of years since birth.
- (The old option for Years/Months has been removed).
-
- - Added some horizontal guidelines to the comparison charts,
- to accurately show the 100% and 50% positions.
-
- - Changed the buttons on the toolbar.
-
- - Bug fix: The chart date was sometimes shown in slightly the
- wrong position on the charts. Now fixed.
-
- - Bug fix: In the birthday database, creating a new entry and
- then exiting the dialog without entering any details would
- crash the program. Now fixed.
-
- V2.0 (29.01.00)
-
- - Major rewrite of the source code.
-
- - New function: Critical days can now be exported into an Agenda
- file. (Select "Export to Agenda" in the File menu).
-
- - New function: Added a "View/Today" menu function, which jumps
- instantly to a chart for todays date. (Shortcut key=Space)
-
- - New function: Added a "View/Show toolbar" menu function, which
- allows you to toggle the toolbar on/off.
-
- - In the birthday database, the names are now sorted into
- alphabetical order.
-
- - Bug fix: The Birthday database was not Y2K compatible. Fixed.
-
- - Bug fix: On colour machines, the chart axis would sometimes be
- drawn in blue instead of black after changing chart types.
-
- V1.5 (05.11.99)
-
- - Charts are now displayed in full colour on machines with colour
- screens.
-
- - Rewrote the routines which draw the charts, so that they now
- resize correctly to *any* screen size.
-
- - New prefs option: Week separators can now be displayed on the
- charts.
-
- - Changed the short-cut keys for scrolling the charts. Pressing
- Ctrl-Arrow now scrolls a week at a time, and Func-Arrow scrolls
- a month at a time.
-
- - Minor changes to the interpretation dialogs, for compatibility
- with the Psion Revo.
-
- V1.4 (04.09.99)
-

- Oops! This is now fixed.
-
- - The "Registration code" menu function is now removed from the menu
- after you have registered.
-
- - The old "compatibility charts" have been renamed as comparison
- charts. Strictly speaking, comparison is an entirely different
- thing to compatibility, and it was a little bit misleading for
- me to call the comparison charts compatibility charts!
-
- - Bug fix: There were a couple of minor bugs in the event loop.
- Fixed.
-
- V1.2b (01.09.98)
-
- - Bug fix: The menus couldn't be activated using the pen. Now fixed.

-
- - Bug fix: Due to a bug in one of the system OPX's, entering certain
- dates (eg. 15/12/1996) as either the birthday or plot date would
- make the program crash with an Out Of Range error. Now fixed.
-
- V1.2 (15.08.98)
-
- - Now supports compatibility charts, allowing you to see how
- compatible two people are.
-
- - Changed the menu layout again, to make it conform more closely to
- the standard EPOC32 guidelines.
-
- - Tidied up the button-labels in the dialog requesters.

- for changing the display between the two types of chart.

-
- - Designed some icons for the toolbar buttons.

- standard EPOC32 guidelines.

- as well as the actual dates themselves.

- the chart. In particular, the weekday name is now shown - useful if
- you want to know which day of the week someone was born on!
-
- - Added "OK" buttons to all the message dialogs.
-
