Ready for some Mine sweeper with an attitude? This is not your mothers
Minesweeper! So read the documentation (SWEEPER.DOC) or look through the
on-line help before starting to play.
I wrote this program to learn how to do OS/2 PM programing. Somewhere along
the way I gave it an attitude. You will find the following features:
1) There are rocks in the minefield
2) There is an Unexploded bomb in the mine field that needs to be
defused.
3) There is a pesky gopher in the mine field that likes to push
the mines around and steal your markers.
4) You can cheat!!!
5) Clear around works by MB1 clicking an open square. Not by chording.
6) The silly smiley face button is gone.
Other than that it is your basic mine sweeper game.
This game is distributed as shareware. But the author retains the copyright
and all other rights. You are encouraged to redistribute the game. You must
include all the original files including this readme and the documentation.
INSTALLATION
Since you are reading this I will assume that you have already unzipped the
files into their own directory (probably GAMES\MINESWP). Having done that
you only have to create a program object in your games folder or on the desktop
that will start up Minesweeper. Be sure that you set the working directory
field on page 1 of the settings notebook to the directory where the files
have been unzipped.
You will find the following files:
Readme.doc This file.
Sweeper.exe The executable game file.
Sweeper.hlp The on-line help file.
Sweeper.doc More documentation and instructions to play.
Sweeper.ini This will be created after you run the game for the 1st time.
There will be no files created or modified in any other directories.
Contacting The author:
If you have questions you can contact me at either...
Greeder@Delphi.Com -or- Greed39@IDT.com
I would give you my snail mail address and ask for money but I know that
no one registers games. So if you use the game just send me a note by
email and I'll consider you a registered user.
A few last words:
Yes, my spelling is awful. What's your point?
And I'm not an artist so my bitmaps my leave a little to be desired.
If you want to design a new set of bitmaps for me send me a note at one of the
above email addresses and I'll send you a list and specification for the
bitmaps.
If you are bilingual and want to help do a foreign language version.
Again, send me a note at one of the above e-mail addresses and I'll send you
a copy of the documentation and resource files to be translated.
Thanks and have fun playing!
