- Application Creator v1.02
- =============================================================================
-
- Legal Copyright Notice
- ----------------------
-
- This program (written by Stuart Ford) and it's Help program (written by
- Loring) are purely Public Domain as long as no code or data is changed in
- any way.
-
- Introduction
- ------------
-
- If you're a programmer then you'll too probably find it a chore creating
- application directories with all their various files, even before you've
- started to write the program. So use this. Enter a leafname, choose your
- options, drag and ... Presto! A brand new gleaming application, ready
- to program - in seconds.
-
- Instructions
- ------------
-
- Load in the usual way by double clicking on the Filer icon. The main
- window will appear at once, there is no icon bar icon as you'll probably
- quit the program straight after you have used it.
-
- Enter your application name, please ensure that it has a '!' in front of
- it. If you're program has a fixed slot size, enter it and ensure that the
- option is selected. If you're program has a variable slot size, enter both
- the minimum and maximum values of your slot size
-
- The remaining four options decide whether you want !Boot, !Help, !Run or
- !Sprites files. The sprite file created is just a copy of this application's
- Filer icon, but is easily changed.
-
- Versions
- --------
-
- Version 1.00 works on RISC OS 2.
- Version 1.01 works on RISC OS 3 (and I presume on RISC OS 2)
- Version 1.02 provides min/max on slot size.
-
- *** VIRUS ALERT ***
- -------------------
-
- This program produces a maximum of two Obey files and a sprites file. This
- means that because this program is written in BASIC, it is not difficult
- to tamper with the program to spread viri to all new applications created
- by it. Therefore I urge you to scan your hard disc frequently with one of
- the many virus killers about. To protect this program, the files within
- the application directory should be the following lengths:
-
- !Boot : 61 bytes
- !Run : 81 bytes
- !RunImage : 6118 bytes
- !Sprites : 736 bytes
-
- If they are not these lengths, check them very carefully. Beware of course:
- there is nothing to stop a virus-pirate from changing this help file.
