- Ungeek 0.3
- ----------
-
- Ungeek decodes a geekcode block to readable text. For more information on
- the geekcode, send your browser to:
-
- http://www.geekcode.com
-
- this decoder has its home at:
-
- http://www.cybercomm.nl/~amiga/geekcode/
-
- "Ungeek" accepts a text file and finds the geekcode block inside. The [-s]
- flag makes Ungeek display the code blocks it reads above the
- interpretation. To test ungeek try having it ungeek the block in this doc
- file by simply typing "Ungeek Ungeek.doc". This version of Ungeek only
- knows how to handle version 3.1 of the geekcode. The latest version of the
- source code can be found on the website.

- Notes per operating system
- --------------------------
-
- Notes for Amiga
- Ungeek for Amiga was compiled using SAS/C 6.50. The Amiga C
- compiler is pickey. It wants functions to be declared as "unsigned
- int" rather than just "int". Furthermore the Amiga version needed
- to have extra stack space forced. So the program was extended with
- the commands "__STKNEED = 5000" and "__stack = 5000;". Works fine
- now.
-
- To invoke a file request, run the program like this:
-
- Ungeek `C:RequestFile`
-
- or use the "Ungeek WB" version (requires WB 3.0).
-
- BeOS
- Since the program is developed on BeOS, this is the standard and
- therefore always stable and up-to-date. Current version is BeOS
- pre-release 2 on Macintosh PPC hardware.
-
- NeXT Step
- Works fine. Currently the application is only available for NeXT
- Step on Intel hardware.
-
- MacOS
- I have no idea how to accept standard input. Therefore it only
- works by putting a text file called "geekcodeblock.txt" into the
- current folder. Ungeek will read and interpret this file and send
- the output to SOUIX (the Mac equivalent of stdout from Metrowerks).
-
- Sun
- Excellent compiler. Works well. Compiled on Sun Sparc 5 station.

- Wouldn't print correct name of processed file. Fixed, sort of.
