The Designer V1.3
(C) Ian OConnor 1994
This program is copyright (C) Ian OConnor 1994. You may distribute the
demo version as freely as you like as long as you do not charge more than
a reasonable fee to do so. You may not, however, change any of the files
supplied , other than to compress them, and any distribution must include
them all in full.
You may not distribute the full registered version of the Designer at
all. The demo version has 'Demonstration Version' written in the about
window. This software is provided "AS IS", without warranty of any kind,
either expressed or implied. The author is not responsible for any damage
or loss of data due to use of this program, these are solely the users
concern.
Registered users can now upgrade their programs using the demo version
by clicking on an extra button in the main window which does not appear
on registered versions. See Designer.Guide - upgrading for more info.
The Designer can be run from the program disk itself or you can copy it
onto another disk, such as a hard disk. You need not copy all the files,
here is a description of them :
Readme : This file.
Designer : The program, you probably want this.
Designer.Guide : Help file, not necessary but helpful.
CProducer : Program required to produce C source.
PasProducer : Program required to produce Pascal
source.
Directories : AllKindsDemo : All gadgets supported demonstrated.
MenuDemo : Menu demonstration
ToggleDemo : Toggle buttons.
KeyDemo : Demo of keyboard shortcuts.
MultipleDemo : Demo using multiple copies of windows.
All the files must be in the same drawer as the Designer, except the
demos. To copy to a hard drive just drag the required files to the
destination directory, if you are upgrading a registered version
it can be done for you.
A preferences file will be stored on your boot disk if you Save
preferences, when run from this boot disk in future those preferences
will be loaded. You will probably want to do this to get rid of the
About Window on running.
The demo version is virtually identical to the registered version but
the Save option on the Designer itself is partly disabled. To obtain
the full version send 15 pounds sterling to this address :
I OConnor
3 Askerton Close
Nine Elms
Swindon
Wiltshire
SN5 9XB
UK
I will then send you a full version of the designer as soon as possible.
This will be approximately the same as the demo version with the save
fully enabled.
The money must be in a cheque or money order in sterling and drawable on
a UK bank, please allow some time for delivery.
Their is no time limit on the demo, you may use it as much as you like,
but you may not edit any of the files or re-distribute them in any form
other than the origonal distribution.
To produce the full demos source you cannot use the Generate option in
the Demo Designer because this saves the current data and will not save
it all .You must use the producers from the Shell or Workbench with the
filenames as parameters or selected respectively.
The help file is in AmigaGuide format, now that AmigaGuide is freely
available this should not cause any problems. I hope you enjoy using this
program and think it worthwhile
