ATOMS.EXE (C) Copyright AK-SYS 1991 All Rights Reserved.
Atoms is computer generated art. It is generally useless software and
a great way to waste time. The program will generate random color changes
using basic pixel, rectangle, and ellipse graphic figures. It is created
as a "dual mode" DOS and Windows 3.0 program and will run in either environment.
The windows version is much slower due to the nature of windows itself and
the need to share the CPU with other applications.
Atoms is true shareware. No kidding. If you like it use it and pass it along
freely. There is no trial period, no nag ware and no bad karma like so much
other supposedly "shareware" software out there.
If you like Atoms and wish to register it, send whatever your contribution
may be to the address listed below. If you register AK-SYS will add your
name to our user database and keep you informed of updates and other gee-wiz
software that we make available. If your contribution covers the cost
(about $10 1991 prices) we will mail the latest iteration and enhancement
to you on the diskette size you specify.
DOS mode:
Type atoms at the DOS command prompt. To quit the program at any time
just hit the escape key.
Space bar - cycles through variations of one graphic form
Left and right arrows - changes the basic graphic figure
F1 and F2 - increase/decrease the "skew" factor whatever that is
F3 and F4 - increase/decrease the time between random color changes
Windows mode:
Standard windows controls and layouts.
The "delta" selection controls the skews and color rate changes, the
names of the individual types of graphic figures have no bearing
on anything so don't worry about it. If you minimize, the program
continues to paint in its icon, try it and amaze your friends.
