-
- This is BorayLetter 6.1 final beta 2
- ------------------------------------
-
- If you are new to this program, read the introduction below!
-
- Welcome to the final beta version of BorayLetter!
- The program is ready and as far as I know, BUG FREE!
-
- You can use this archive stand alone or as an update for
- comm/misc/BorayLetter60.lha. The only things that are missing
- in this archive is the demo letters, graphics, music and the
- amigaguide document. These things (and some more stuff like
- e-mail games) will be added in the final version. This will
- take some time because I have other things to do - like
- making music (http://listen.to/boray)
-
- The old support site (http://www.odyssey.on.ca/~dhamilton/borayletter.html)
- is down. A new one will be available on http://borayletter.fun.ms
-
- This new address (http://borayletter.fun.ms) is a redirect URL
- and right now it points to my amiga page. Here you can download
- BorayLetter, a bunch of .bl files and .bl email games. You will
- also find a BorayLetter message forum. You are welcome to post
- a message here. All this will later be moved to a new support site
- (with the same redirect address).
-
- If you have made a cool .bl file, you are welcome to send it to
- letter@boray.every1.net
-
- The best letters sent to this address will be included in the final
- version of BorayLetter. The rest will be put on BorayLetter's support
- site. Please note that I can choose to not put your .bl file on the
- support site if it contains copyrighted material or if I don't like it
- at all....
-
- If you have any questions or problems to report, post a message on the
- message board, or e-mail me at: borayletter@fun.ms
-
- Have fun with BorayLetter!
-
- Kind Regards,
- Anders Persson

- Introduction
- ------------
-
- Welcome to Boray Letter, the "king of letter programs". Maybe you
- don't know what a letter program is. Well, it was something that
- started on the C64. You could use the keyboard to write a message
- to your friend, and when he looked at it, it was displayed in the
- same way it was written.... BorayLetter is that, and much more.
- You can for example draw lines, wait for a key to be pressed before
- continuing or even make your own little cartoons and play music!!!
-
- When you for example draw a line in your letter, only the
- coordinates for the line are saved to the file. All graphics work
- in this way. This results in an extremely efficient file format.
- For example, the demo letter "Cecdic" contains four and a half
- minutes of cartoons, and it's only 24K in size.
-
- BL 6.1 - easier to use than ever! If you are using YAM, you
- will practically have BL integrated into your mailer in no time
- using BL's new install tool. (But other mailers are also supported).
- The new file format is portable and you don't have to bother
- one bit over what files to include or not before sending.
- Just press "Send Letter" and BL will do the job for you.
-
- Well, have fun!!! Next time you intend to send an email
- to someone, send a letter that lives! A BorayLetter!
