- PEEPSHOW
- --------
- PEEPSHOW is a picture viewer/slideshow for IBM compatibles with VESA
- compatible SVGA cards. GIF, PCX, TGA, TIF, and FLI picture file formats
- are supported. PEEPSHOW will use available DOS memory, EMS, and XMS memory.
- However, the program was designed for 386 computers and SVGA cards with at
- least 512K memory. Therefor, HIMEM.SYS, EMM386.SYS or QEMM386.SYS should
- be installed and 2 MEGS of EMS/XMS ram should be available, but one
- should work just fine.
-
- This program will work on most SVGA VESA compatible boards. Almost every
- SVGA board out there comes with a VESA compatible driver (i.e. SVGA.COM or
- SVGA.EXE on your SVGA driver disk), so if your's doesn't, you might want
- to get a new SVGA card.
-
- For those of you who have the newer versions of Paradise, Trident, and other
- cards (especially the newer windows accelerator cards) are recommended to
- use the VESA.COM or VESA.EXE files as some of these cards have changes that
- may have unpredictable results on your SVGA card. The VESA drivers usually
- take up less than 3k (which usually can be loaded high) so try and use it
- if you can.
-
- If you're having problems with your SVGA card, please drop us a line,
- and we will get back to you ASAP. Remember to try using your VESA driver
- before you write to us - this will usually solve the problem.

- INSTRUCTIONS
- ------------
- If you haven't figured out how to use PEEPSHOW yet, it's pretty simple.
- There are only 9-10 keys you will ever need to use.
-
- From the window/box you may view a picture at any time simply by pressing
- [ENTER]. You can move around to any directory by selecting it (a name with
- a <NAME> for example). To add the picture the cursor is currently on, press
- F9 and it will be added to the current list.
- Press F10 and you will be at the slideshow menu.
-
- From the slideshow menu you may select the current picture by pressing '1'.
- Then enter the line where you wish to place it. The picture on that line
- will be overwritten.
-
- Remove a picture by pressing '2', and entering it's line number.
- Entering '3' will start the show.
- Enter '4' to change the delay rate.
- Enter '5' to clear the current list.
- Enter '6' to toggle the fade option.
- Enter '7' to load a new set of files.
- Enter '8' to save the current list of files.
-
- F1 - Toggle graphics mode to 300x200x256.
- F7/F8 - Change current SVGA mode.
- F9/F10 - Brighten/Darken picture.
-
- As you can see the program is very simplistic and hopefully you will grow
- fond of it and register.
