SpotChef V2.2 by Ian Forest @ 2:250/188.100
(c)1995, All rights reserved
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
""""""""""""
SpotChef 2.2 will translate a message into a strange dialect that only
other Chefs/Jive Speakers/ValSpeakers (?) and Germans vill understand yah?
Bork Bork Bork!
It will modify the text of the original writer then ask if you would like to
replace the current message with the newly modified version or post another
message into the echo. You then have the option of editing the message.
The subject line will be modified to show the evidence of SpotChef's work.
I think you'll find, a more supremely useful program has yet to surface on
the Amiga. ;-) (Alongside the MailManager version!)
Requirements or dare I say...necessities?
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
An excellent Amiga bearing the C= trademark
A registered SPOT by Mr. Nico Francois...
Usage
"""""
Shove the language files into the C: directory on your hard disk. You can have
them elsewhere but you'll have to edit the script, shouldn't be too hard for
you.
Copy SpotChef22.spot to wherever you keep all your Spot scripts, just add
SpotChef to your Arexx pull down menus then either hit the hotkey or use the
mouse to do the converting.
Credits
"""""""
Mat Bettinson for the original script.
David Lascelles for the Jive/Kraut/ValSpeak language files.
Nico Francois for Spot...the best point software on the Amiga today, and
yesterday and the day before and the FUTURE!
Version History
"""""""""""""""
1.0 06/06/95 Initial release, quick 5 minute knock-up.
1.1 09/06/95 Final release, 1 fix. Decided that if you want to
convert the current message, and it isn't from you, then
SpotChef would write the converted msg in your name, now
it doesn't, it writes it in the original writers name.
2.0 10/06/95 Added support for the Jive/ValSpeak/Kraut language files.
Thanks David!
2.1 11/06/95 Now asks if you want to replace the current message or
write a new one into the echo. Also asks if you wish
to edit the message.
2.2 12/08/95 Minor bug fix, slight spelling mistook! :)
The End Bit
"""""""""""
This script is more of a gimmick than a tool really. I saw the MailManager
version and wanted a Spot version for myself. So, if you like it, use it, if
not, don't, I won't come around and stab you!!
Bugs PAH!
"""""""""
This version is now pretty much bug free. Anything else I add to it now is more
of an enhancement really. Maybe if I get more language files i'll update it
again.
If in the meantime, you add to the script, or if you want anything adding to it,
then please contact me like this:
