~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Special Thanx to:
»Brian C. McDonald for the hex addresses and intro art.
»My brain for not blowing up while creating 6 programs at the same time.

This editor is freeware, distribute it to whomever you like as long as you
keep the zip file intact with the three files and do it for free!
It is meant to run on the registered version of Descent ][ only, I can only
say it *might* work on the shareware, but hey if you have the shareware ver,
then go out and buy the registered ver its much better!
However I will not be held responsible for any stupidity you might do when
using this proggy, like turning off the computer in the middle of saving the
savegame, which would probably trash your savegame. If it formats your HD,
burns your 17" UVGA monitor, its your fault, use at your own risk.

│ How do I use D2R??? │
└───────--─-─--───────┘
Using this editor is fairly simple, not to mention the keys are on the
bottom of the screen in case you forget what they are.
When you execute the D2R.EXE file if you have a VGA 256 colour or better
then you will see the cool art by Brian McDonald. Then just press a key and
you'll be in the editor, Page Up and Page Down buttons get you through the
two editing pages, arrows move the highlighting bar around, enter key selects,
anything else is on the bottom line of the screen, and I just can't remember
right now! (its 00:40)
The Alt-M function allows you to maximize the currently highlited option,
while Alt-T maximizes all the options in the _current page_, so to max out
completely everything then press Alt-T in the first page, press Page Down,
then Alt-T, press letter "q" to quit, when prompted to save the file answer
with the letter "y", and you're in business!

Brian and I met thanx to Descent so here we are offering to the whole net,
the awaited Descent ][ cheat.
You can see what else we have made at our web pages, Brian has a pretty
stable address, I'm moving around all the time (cos I'm a hacker and when the
admins find out what account I am nested in, they kill the account, so I keep
on moving through various addresses, so your best bet is to check out Brian's
page for my current address).
Anyway here are our current web addresses:
Brian's page: http://www2.gsu.edu/~gs01bcm
Jeremy's page: http://www.ucr.ac.cr/~macamach
Well thats it, have fun!
