-
- THAT'S ALL!
-
- You'll need about 8.3 MB of hard disk space for the installation!
-
- After installation, the current version of France.Guide (and all of
- its accompanying files), will occupy about 5.7 MB on your hard disk.
-
- UTILISATION
- -------------
-
- For optimum viewing, your screen should be set at least to 640 x 512,
- 8 colo(u)rs.
-
- The maps have been designed for the MagicWB palette [translator note: :-( ]
-
- The specially handcrafted font (Helvetica in 9 points size), supplied with
- France.Guide is ideal for a 17" screen or bigger.
-
- If you choose to install this font, to be able to use it within France.Guide,
- you'll have to remove the '@REMARK ' in front of '@Font helvetica.font 9',
- at the beginning of France.Guide itself.

- a function that is not compatible with AmigaGuide as supplied with WB 2.x:
-
- ie:
-
- Replace:
- @{" CARTE - Alsace " LINK "Cartes/Cartes_Alsace/Carte_Rég_Alsace.iff/Main"}
