- Alweer een KIDPRG (#14 and #15!) in GFA Basic
- door D.A. Brumleve
-
-
- Kidshapes, een grafisch ontwerp programma afgeleid van m`n zoons
- magnetische prikbord,bestaat in 2 versies.
- De versie voor jonge kinderen omvat grote doelen voor de muis en beperkte
- keuses.
- Terwijl de versie voor de oudere kinderen en( volwassenen..!!!)een groter
- aantal keuses bevat,met de mogelijkheid ingewikkeldere plaatjes te maken,
- bovendien bevat ze de "FLITS" optie:gekozen blokjes op het ontwerpblad kunnen
- aan of uit gezet worden waardoor een groot aantal effecten mogelijk
- worden.
- De Help files op de disc helpen je op weg om plaatjes en ontwerpen
- te maken met KIDSHAPES.
- (In Kidshapes Plus, zijn verschillende Help files beschikbaar voor
- de ontwerp en flits modes,lees ze derhalve beide.
-
- Let op! Maak aan elke gebruiker van de disc duidelijk dat de disc
- ten alle tijde tijdens het programma in de drive moet blijven.
- You should be
- aware also that the pictures provided will be overwritten (and,
- thus, lost) if you choose to save your own pictures to disk.
- For this reason, I would recommend that you make a back-up copy
- of the original disk. I would also suggest that you provide each
- member of the family who will use the program with a personal copy.
- It is also a good idea to provide for autobooting if young children
- will use the program. I have therefore provided AUTOSHPS.PRG
- (for Kidshapes) and AUTOSHPP.PRG, which, when inserted in an auto
- folder on your Kidshapes disk, will load the program automatically
- when the disk is inserted in Drive A and the reset button on the
- back of your computer is pressed. To take advantage of this option,
- place your Kidshapes disk in Drive A and click the Drive A icon on
- your Desktop. Then click "New Folder" in the File menu and type
- "AUTO" (no quotation marks). Click "OK". An AUTO folder will be
- created on your disk. Now copy the appropriate AUTOSHP*.PRG into
- the AUTO folder.
-
- Please note that this program, while freely distributed, is
- not quite public domain. It is offered to you as CAREWARE. If
- you enjoy using this program and would like to share the joy of
- computing with others, please send your tax-deductible donation
- ($10 suggested) to:
-
- LEAL SCHOOL ST FUND
- C/O 607 WEST ILLINOIS STREET
- URBANA, IL 61801
- U.S.A.
-
- Please make your check payable to "Leal School". (This is a
- public elementary school in my neighborhood.) Your generosity
- will be most appreciated. Thank you, and enjoy Kidshapes!
