Readme for Animouse (tm) demo.
First of all...
Sentience Software takes NO RESPONSIBILITY for anything good/bad/otherwise
that might befall your computer as a result of using this program.
Use of this software constitutes agreement to the above.
That out of the way -- Welcome to Animouse!
Animouse is a simple program to animate your OS/2 mouse pointers.
The animouse demo offers you a chance to check out the software and
make sure it works correctly on your machine (see below) before you
buy it. The demo offers all the functionality of the full version
with the following restrictions:
- Only 2 sample animations are included
- Creation, editing, and deletion of animations is disabled.
- 1/2 hour time limit
-- INSTALLATION --
We hope you enjoy the demo. In order to minimize download time,
we did not include a graphical installation program with it (although
there is one in the full product). Instead, after unzipping the
package, you will find a file named 'install.cmd'. This file will:
a) Create a Folder on your desktop
b) Place an Animouse Demo program object in the folder
c) Place a shadow of the program object in your startup folder
If you are not using the Workplace Shell, then you may execute
Animouse directly from the command line, or from your shell of
choice.
-- REMOVAL --
1) Run remove.cmd OR manually
a) Delete Animouse demo program object
b) Delete Startup folder shadow
c) Delete folder
2) Delete the program files.
3) You are done!
-- FLICKERING AND BLINKING --
It has been reported that Animouse blinks uncontrollably on some
video cards, most notably the Tseng ET4000 based cards and some
Trident cards. In addition, this blink varies from card to card.
Some cards exhibit extreme blink with 2 color animations. Others,
which have hardware acceleration, will be ROCK SOLID with these
animations. Most current cards will exhibit a small amount of
flicker with color animations, but not enough to really be bothersome.
For this reason, you should try out both of the animations included
with the demo. The 'Hand' animation is 2 color only while the
'Winwag' animation is 16 color.
