- Preface
- -------
-
- The idea for this library came from Windows 3.0 and Mac System 7.0.
- These two operating systems have the capability to share data
- between two or more programs. I don't know how they implemented
- this feature, so I suspect my implementation will be quite different.
-
- With this library you can create an object and let other programs
- link to this object. For example, you could write an editor that
- has the capability to store text in a DinObject. A DTP program
- supporting the din.library can then show this text in a DTP
- specific way. When you change the text in the editor, the text
- will automatically be adjusted in the DTP program.
-
- You can also link graphical objects. For example, a brush in
- a drawing program can be an object used by the DTP program.
- When you change the brush, it will also change in the DTP program.
-
- din.library if FREEWARE. You can copy it freely as long as you
- don't ask any more money for it than a nominal fee for copying.
-
- The complete package contains following files:
-
- include (dir)
- proto (dir)
- din.h
- clib (dir)
- din_protos.h
- libraries (dir)
- din.h
- din.i
- din_lib.i
- doc (dir)
- Din.doc
- fd (dir)
- din_lib.fd
- libs (dir)
- din.library
- din.ReadMe
- DinDemo
- DinDemo.c
- latticeglue.asm
- dinSCglue.o
- dinLCglue.o
-
- All of these files (except DinDemo.c and DinDemo) must remain
- unmodified and are copyrighted by the author (me :-). None of
- these files may be distributed on its own, the entire package
- must be distributed as one whole.
- You can use DinDemo.c for everything you like, it's completely
- public domain.
-
- There is one exception to the above. If your program is freely
- distributable and uses din.library you have permission to
- include the library with your distribution.
-
- You must have permission from the author to include din.library
- with commercial distributions.
-
-
-
- If you have any suggestions or remarks you can write to (Bug reports
- are welcome too)
