Data INterface V1.0

Preface
-------
The idea for this library came from Windows 3.0 and Mac System 7.0.
These two operating systems have the capability to share data
between two or more programs. I don't know how they implemented
this feature, so I suspect my implementation will be quite different.
With this library you can create an object and let other programs
link to this object. For example, you could write an editor that
has the capability to store text in a DinObject. A DTP program
supporting the din.library can then show this text in a DTP
specific way. When you change the text in the editor, the text
will automatically be adjusted in the DTP program.
You can also link graphical objects. For example, a brush in
a drawing program can be an object used by the DTP program.
When you change the brush, it will also change in the DTP program.
din.library if FREEWARE. You can copy it freely as long as you
don't ask any more money for it than a nominal fee for copying.
The complete package contains following files:
include (dir)
proto (dir)
din.h
clib (dir)
din_protos.h
libraries (dir)
din.h
din.i
din_lib.i
doc (dir)
Din.doc
fd (dir)
din_lib.fd
libs (dir)
din.library
din.ReadMe
DinDemo
DinDemo.c
latticeglue.asm
dinSCglue.o
dinLCglue.o
All of these files (except DinDemo.c and DinDemo) must remain
unmodified and are copyrighted by the author (me :-). None of
these files may be distributed on its own, the entire package
must be distributed as one whole.
You can use DinDemo.c for everything you like, it's completely
public domain.
There is one exception to the above. If your program is freely
distributable and uses din.library you have permission to
include the library with your distribution.
You must have permission from the author to include din.library
with commercial distributions.
If you have any suggestions or remarks you can write to (Bug reports
are welcome too)
