EarthQuake 1.0
by Marco Carra

Description
Straight from the San Francisco Bay Area, EarthQuake is a Control Panel that shakes your mac's desktop and windows while it plays an earthquake sound. You can turn EarthQuake on and off from the keyboard at any moment using a quick key combination of your choice.
The control panel lets you set the delay between earthquakes and the quick on/off key combination. 
The duration of the earthquake is random.

Requirements and Installation
EarthQuake will work properly on the Macintosh SE/30®, Macintosh II® family and above.
To install it, move EarthQuake to your System folder, choose to put it into the Control Panels folder and restart.

Setting the Time Delay
Open the EarthQuake control panel and with the up and down arrows set the number of minutes between quakes. EarthQuake does not follow your setting strictly. There is always a certain degree of randomness. This version allows time settings between 1 and 60 minutes. The default setting is 30 minutes. Changes will take effect immediately.

Setting the Keys for On/Off Switch
The key combination to turn EarthQuake on or off from the keyboard can be customized. The default setting is Option Command Return. To change it, open the EarthQuake control panel, and click on the Set Keys button. A dialog box will appear. Press the key combination you desire and it will be displayed in the dialog box. When you have chosen one, click the OK button, or press return. The new key settings will be shown in the control panel. Changes will take effect immediately.

Turning EarthQuake!! On/Off from the Keyboard
To turn EarthQuake on or off from the keyboard use the key combination that you have set. The on/off keys act as a toggle switch. When you push these keys, EarthQuake lets you know that it has responded by playing two different sounds. The "oh oh" to let you know that EarthQuake!! is ON, and the "wew" to let you know that it is OFF. Using the keyboard to turn on or off EarthQuake, does not affect the On/Off status of the control panel after a restart.
