╙╒┬╩┼├╘: ╥┼╒ ╦OALA ╙LIDESHOW
╞╔╠┼╙ ╬┼┼─┼─:  ╦OALA 40 BLOCK FILES

╘HIS IS A ╦OALAPAINT SLIDESHOW PROGRAM
THAT WILL STASH THE PICTURES INTO A
1764/1750 ╥┼╒ AS THE PICTURES ARE
LOADED. ╧N THE SECOND AND SUCCEEDING
DISPLAY CYCLES OF THE PICTURES, THEY
WILL BE LOADED FROM THE ╥┼╒ INSTEAD OF
THE DISK.
╧NCE YOU UN┴╥├ THE FILE YOU FIND TWO
VERSIONS OF ╥┼╒ ╙╠╔─┼╙╚╧╫ - ONE DOES A
NORMAL LOAD AND DISPLAY, AND THE OTHER
ONE DOES A NICE FADE IN AND FADE OUT
OF EACH PICTURE AS IT GOES THROUGH THE
LIST.
╘HIS IS GREAT FOR SETTING UP STAND
ALONE DISPLAYS OF PICTURES ON THE
COMPUTER THAT WON'T BE CONSTANTLY
WEARING OUT YOUR DISK OR DRIVE.
╘HE TIME THAT EACH PICTURE IS SHOW IS
USER SELECTABLE, AND THE PROGRAMS WILL
ACTUALLY WORK WHETHER YOU HAVE AN ╥┼╒
OR NOT -IF THERE IS NO ╥┼╒ PRESENT THE
PICTURES WILL CONTINUE TO LOAD FROM
DISK, JUST LIKE ANY OTHER GARDEN
VARIETY SLIDESHOW PROGRAM.
╘HERE IS A FASTBOOTER INCLUDED IN THE
SLIDESHOW, SO THAT THE INITIAL LOADING
OF THE PICTURES INTO THE ╥┼╒ WILL NOT
TAKE SO LONG. ╔F YOU ARE USING THIS
PROGRAM WITH A 1581 DRIVE, YOU WILL
PROBABLY WANT TO ╥┼═ OUT THE FEW LINES
AT THE BEGINNING WHICH LOAD THE
╞┴╙╘┬╧╧╘ PROGRAM AND INITIALIZE IT.┘OU
WILL ALSO HAVE TO TINKER WITH THE
DIRECTORY READ ROUTINE TOO -EVERYTHING
IS ╥┼═ED IN THE PROGRAM, SO YOU WILL
NOT HAVE TOO BAD A TIME FIGURING IT
OUT IF YOU NEED TO CHANGE IT.
╔ HACKED THIS TOGETHER IN A COUPLE OF
HOURS. ╫HY? ┬ECAUSE ╔ NEEDED THIS
PROGRAM, AND THERE WASN'T ONE ALREADY
ON ╤╠╔╬╦ TO DOWNLOAD!
