- Loading the software
- --------------------
-
- Place the Demo disc in the drive and click the select button
- on the floppy disc icon (:0). First, double click on the !Fonts
- directory which is supplied on the disc. This will load the
- fonts required for The Naughty Story into memory. Now, open
- the window which contains the application !Edwina. Move the
- pointer over this application and double click the select button.
-
- After a short delay the Elephant icon will appear on the icon
- bar. This demo is a cut down version of the Edwina story.

- Using the software
- ------------------
-
- The Naughty Stories have been designed to be very simple to use.
- Most activities are performed by a single click of the select
- button.
-
- The simplest way to start the demo is to click the select
- (left) button on the Elephant icon on the icon bar.
-
- The main window contains a few icons; left and right facing
- arrows (forward and backward through the book), an ear to
- listen to the story being read out and an eye to animate the
- picture. Clicking on any of the words in the story cause them
- to be read out. This demo can also be used in single task mode.
- This means that the software will run outside of the RISC OS
- Wimp environment so that children are not empted to play with
- the desktop. Press the Escape key to skip back to desktop mode.
-
- An options menu allows you to set whether single words or whole
- sentences (or both) are spoken. You can also set the volume and
- record a log file of the words.
