Short: Powerful AmigaGuide creator. WB2+
Author: Edd Dumbill -- edd@heddley.com -- http://www.heddley.com/edd/
Uploader: Richard Lane - richard@amiga.prestel.co.uk
Type: text/hyper
Requires: GUIFront library (dev/gui/gfront12.lha)
============= Heddley V1.20ß. Copyright © 1994-5 Ed Dumbill. =============
Over the past few years many Amiga software authors including myself have
used Heddley to create AmigaGuide files. When I registered Heddley way back
in July 1995 Edd sent me the latest version (V1.20ß) that he had completed.
Though there are a few minor imperfections in the program, considering that
it was a beta release it has proved extremely stable in everyday use. This
version also includes new features such as error checking.
Many years have now elapsed since its last release on Aminet. Having been
delighted with Heddley I wondered what had become of the program and its
author. I knew that the details in the documentation were completely out of
date, but after a few minutes searching with Alta-Vista I found his current
web site which included a current email address.
I wrote to him to find out what the current situation with Heddley was.
Sadly it is no longer being developed as Edd has moved onto other things
(see his web site for details). However, he did generously agree that I
could upload this newer version to Aminet that has a number of new features
that make it worthy of inclusion.
There are some important points to note about this distribution.
All the address's mentioned in the documentation are now out of date. His
current email and web site address's are at the top of this readme.
The GUIFront library (V38.1), and GUIFront preferences Editor by Michael
Berg are also required. These can be found on Aminet dev/gui/gfront12.lha.
I have not taken over the development of Heddley, I am merely acting as a
go-between to get this new version on to Aminet. Unfortunately, I do not
have the necessary programming ability either.
Any further details that become available can be found on my web site at
http://www.homeusers.prestel.co.uk/amiga
The copyright status of Heddley has not changed and the shareware fee is
still the same as mentioned in the documentation. Though I doubt there will
ever be a new version of Heddley, in my opinion it is well worth this small
amount. Please contact Edd directly by email should you want to send him a
shareware payment.
========================================================================
Installation. Simplicity itself, Make sure you install GUIFront which comes
with its own installer script, then just drag the entire Heddley drawer to
your hard drive.
