The "ak_gen0.library" is FREEWARE and therefore freely distributable.
The free distribution of the "ak_gen0.library" is allowed, if only a small
copy-fee is taken and no profit is made.
The "ak_gen0.library" is used in many of my programs and it consists of
many functions, which make programming much easier (e.g. the programming
of "Intuition").
This docfile has to be distributed with EVERY copy of the "ak_gen0.library"
to inform all user about the restrictions made here.
The "ak_gen0.library" may be used for own program projects, if those
are PUBLIC DOMAIN or FREEWARE.
Programmers of SHAREWARE, which charge a share-fee higher than 20,-DM
(or $15), or programmers of commercial programs have to get the explicite
permission of the author (me) to use the library. Contact me to get
informed about my conditions.
--- Docfileversion A-V35.106-0307-92 ---
=============================================================================
= INSTALLATION : =
=============================================================================
Copy the "ak_gen0.library" into your "LIBS:"-directory.
=============================================================================
= FUNCTIONS : =
=============================================================================
The "ak_gen0.library" consists of ...
- Functions for comfortable opening of Windows and Screens
- Functions for simple creation of Gadgets, Menus, Submenus,
Images, etc.
- Functions for simple print-out of Texts
- a easy to handle Filerequester, which is completely managed by the
Library.
Under OS >= V2.04 the Asl-Filerequester is used instead.
Both FileRequesters are nearly "function-compatible".
- a random-number generator
- Functions to wait for special events as "Left Mousebutton pressed"
or "Key ??? pressed"
- etc.
Read the file "AK_GEN0-Lib_Reference.doc", to get a full description of its
functions.

- Fixing of a fatal Error in the OS-V1.3-FileRequester
AK_GEN0-V35.98 :

AK_GEN0-V35.15 :
----------------

- improved the FileRequester, now V34.01

AK-V34.10 :
