And you thought I was running out of ideas. Welcome to my latest
endeavor, "Viacom".
Viacom is the name of a cable TV service local to the San Francisco
Bay Area. This program is more or less a political statement regarding
their service.
MANUFACTURE
This is written for the Manx compiler. It *should* work under all
versions (tested with 3.4b, which will be available RSN). To make the
program, you say:
1> make
Easy, isn't it?
USEAGE
Type 'viacom' at a CLI prompt. It takes no arguments. When done,
click on the close gadget in Viacom's window. I highly recommend that you
run it without first trying to determine what it does. It's more fun that
way.
CAVEATS
This program has been designed to work with stuff like 'morerows',
'DropShadow', etc. However, if you use Viacom with 'DropShadow', it is
vital that you remember to exit them in the *REVERSE* order in which you
invoked them. Otherwise, you'll lose your screen. The recommended way of
doing things is to start 'DropShadow', then start Viacom. When done, exit
Viacom first, followed by 'DropShadow'. This is necessary because of the
way both programs muck about with the WorkBench display.
Hope you like it. Oh, and if you work for Viacom, and are insulted
by this program, I refer you to The First Amendment....
