MATiC's guide to QWERTY's game in the Galaxy:
---------------------------------------------
1: Read this stupid text through.
2: Start QWERTY.EXE (figure out how for yourself).
2.5: QWERTY.EXE can be followed by the name of the textfile and your name.
3: Type in the filename of the file you wanna test typing. (text-file)
4: Type in your own name (ask your mom or dad if you are unsure).
5: Look at the ergonomic designed menu.
6: Decide what to do.
7: Press the number corresponding to the choice made some secs ago.
8: Have phun.
Notes:
------
1. The hiscore file is crypted. (HAHAHAHA)
2. Dont try to 'play' a 100k binary file... the results are classified.
3. DONT TAKE THIS (too) SERIOUSLY!
4. This isn't the final sales version.
5. When you submit the bugs/thanx, please write in Swedish/English (/C++/Pascal)
(Surprise: We live in 'Sverige')
6. ***** When an RETURN is expected, SPACE also works. *****
7. MATiC = Magnus And Tomas in Co-operation. :)
8. We do not like Windows.
9. The truth is out there.
10. OS/2 Warp.
11. We really don't like Windowz 95.
Todo:
-----
1. Able to select file via an file-requester.
2. Able to select user via an user-requester (nice word..).
3. Be able to scroll around and see the whole hiscore lists.
4. More configuration options.
5. More included texts.
6. More exact computer-player timing (see config-file for some info)
7. __________________________ (fill in yourself)
