-- You're missing a few files! -----------------------------------------------
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
That's because this is the _update_ version of Sound Lab 1.11. In order to use
this update, you _must_ have a copy of Sound Lab 1.1, along with all the
documentation, support files, and so on. If you don't have this, you should
download the COMPLETE Sound Lab 1.11 archive.
The only documentation provided with this update is this file and READTHIS.1ST,
which contains my current address and a revision list.
-- Using the DMJPATCH program ------------------------------------------------
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
This program will patch your SOUNDLAB.TOS or SOUNDLAB.PRG to update it to 1.11.
It will patch both registered and unregistered versions. If you are patching a
_registered_ version, you will need to unpack it first--Mega Depack works well
for this. (If you forget, the patch program won't patch--it will tell you have
the wrong program.) Whatever you do, DO NOT try to update the program on your
registered disks--if you want those updated, send them back to me.
To run the patch program, double-click on DMJPATCH.PRG from any resolution.
Click to get rid of the annoying alert box that pops up. A fileseletor will
appear; use this to select SOUNDLBU.DPF or SOUNDLBR.DPF (the last letter
corresponds to Unregistered or Registered, whichever you want to patch). This
is the patch file that wille be used to update your copy of Sound Lab. Next,
another fileselector will appear, from which you should select the copy of
Sound Lab you want modified. Once that is selected, the patch will begin. If
anything goes wrong, you'll be told what happened. Whether the patch succeeds
or fails, the patch program will exit.
You should perform the patch on a backup copy of the program; this will insure
that if anything goes wrong during the patching process (not likely, but still
possible) that you will still have a working program.
If you are interested in using this patch program for your own programs, please
let me know. I'm curious how much demand there is for a program like this.
