NakedEye Version 1.0.2
A SuperVga GIF viewer
April 1992, Wollongong City, Australia
This distribution of the SuperVGA GIF viewer "NakedEye" comes with
the following files. There are some extra files but they are not
very important.
1 - Ne.exe The executable
2 - Svga256.bgi SuperVga Video Driver
3 - NakedEye.cfg Optional configuration file
4 - Gothic.chr Gothic font file
5 - Litt.chr Little font file
6 - Stories.rc File of funny messages
7 - NakedEye.hlp Help file (command summary)
8 - README This file itself
9 - NakedEye.TXT User guide in TEXT format
10 - Register.TXT Register form for NakedEye in TEXT format
11 - NakedEye.key Registered key (after registration)
12 - Note.txt Up-to-date notes of changes
13 - Rotate.exe Help NakedEye rotate small raster quickly
14 - Rsize.exe Help NakedEye resize small raster quickly
15 - Talker.exe A program speaks English, telling messages
16 - Sbtalker.exe Sound Blaster speech driver
17 - Remove.exe Unload the speech driver Sbtalker.exe
18 - NakedEye.SND Sample GIF <-> VOC (sound) association file
Some sample GIF files are included for your enjoyment. They are of
Australiana characters and I hope the overseas folks will like them.
This is NOT in the distribution on a network because GIF files are
too big! Some VOC files for music are also included but again, the
distribution on the network will not have them. NakedEye will now
play music at your command when you enjoy looking at the GIF files.
(A Sound Blaster card is assumed)
To get started simply copy all these files into a directory, edit
NakedEye.cfg if you wish, but this can be done later when you already
know a bit more about NakedEye. There is no need for configuring
NakedEye for your video card. If it does not work with your video
then this version does not work with your machine! Simple as that.
That's it! now run it the way you normally run DOS programs. I would
not recommend running NakedEye from a floppy disk! It is now an overlay
program (to save memory). It will be very slow when run from a
floppy disk.
Example: NE *.gif
You would normally need a mouse to use NakedEye properly. If you have
no mouse then please read the user guide now in NakedEye.TXT . If you
have a Sound Blaster card and would like to listen to music when looking
at the GIF files, you should look at editing a GIF <-> VOC association
file. Please look at the files NOTE.TXT and NakedEye.SND for more
details. It is essential that you read the file NOTE.TXT because it will
be the place all new information is stored. I have not written a new
manual for the software.
Hope you will enjoy NakedEye!

CONDITIONS
----------
You can use an unregistered copy software without any condition. In
this sense NakedEye is a HAPPY software. All you have to do is to
smile every time you use it!
If you simply a user (not a company) and you think that you can make
money out of it, please do! even if you do not want to share it with
me and you must distribute it ABSOLUTELY unmodified!!!
I suppose no one would want to register now because I have removed all
the restrictions on unregistered copies. I will update registered users
with the next version. This is perhaps the only incentive left for
users to register. The reason I remove all restriction from this version
because the next one will be very different, and people may like to
keep this version because it is very stable.
FREE OFFER
----------
If you support any environmental organisation for instance Green Peace.
You are welcome to have a free copy of this software (and all updates).
Simply send your registration form in with
- Some proof to show that you are what you claimed to be (such as
a photocopy of a donation receipt).
- A small amount of money to cover the postage and diskettes
say $5 US
A registered copy of this software will be forwarded to you and no
further question asked. Of course whatever document you send in will
be returned with the software.
