Parallel Port Notes:
--------------------

It is recommended that you set your parallel port to either AT-mode
or EPP-mode for uni-directional or bi-directional modes, respectively.
Bi-directional mode will give at least double the throughput compared
to uni-directional mode. The parallel port is usually set up using the
BIOS setup on your machine at boot time.


Colour and your Desktop:
------------------------

Owing to the many problems in creating a 256-colour picture from a
16Million one, there is a restriction for 256-colour desktops. The
main problem is the time to analyse and process the picture. So for
now there is a restriction that 256-colour desktops will present a
picture using a greyscale.


Ordering and Registration:
--------------------------

Please see 'Register' on the Help menu or read the file order.txt

Problems:

Please send mail to qv2@elad.compulink.co.uk to report any problems
or suggestions for improvements. User suggestions have already lead
to new features being added. If you have an idea for a new variation
of the screen-saver (desktop lockup), let me know.


Thanks.
