Stardate Version 0.3
---------------------
Author: Andreas Kroschel
eMail: kro@jmb.berlinet.de
This program is freeware. You are allowed to make as many copies of it as you
wish. The program is distributed 'as is' and comes without any warranty.
'Stardate' shows a clock on the OS/2 Desktop providing the current stardate.
So if you don't watch Star Trek, it might be completely useless for you. But if
you do, you may consider it as a long-missed application, don't you?
The used stardate formula is based on version 1 of the Stardates in
Star Trek FAQ by Andrew Main, which can be found on:
http://www.ing.unico.it/~emas/startrek/stardates.html
Because in Merlin the border of dialog windows looks very nice, it will be used
for the window, if there is a major version number > 3 for the operating system
detected. You can override this by passing the command-line parameters
-3 for the old standard frame, or
-4 for the Merlin look
to the program.
Live long and prosper!

History
-------
0.1 - Very first internal release, just showing the stardate in a big,
ugly standard window
0.2 - Virst release, showing the stardate in a seized window,
able to save and restore window position
0.2a - Bugfix: corrected the window from being moved down one pixel every
time the program was started, only sent to bug reporters
0.2b - Internal release, the window is now displayed after its seizing
0.3 - The window now uses the output text and dialog background system
settings for its color. New look for OS/2 Warp 4 (Merlin), using a dialog border
for the window.
