- I. Distribution
-
- As with version 1.0 (on Fish disk 229) and Version 2.0 (on Fish disk 315),
- this program is released into the public domain (FREEWARE), and is freely
- distributable as long as this document file, source code, header files and
- map files are included in their entirety. The source may be modified for
- personal use, but is NOT for commercial use. The program was developed
- with Aztec C v. 3.6a. The enhancements that lead to Version 2.24 were
- compiled with the SAS (Lattice) C compiler V5.10.

- II. Enhancements
-
- (1) New functions:
-
- (a) Save/SaveAs - The user may save the displayed map as IFF
- ILBM file. The "Save As" option uses either the ARP or the
- ASL filerequester (ASL Requester not tested !)
-
- (b) Print - Creates a printout of the screen
-
- (c) Draw Line - A little paint option to mark a place or sketch
- some areas.
-
- (d) About - Reads the file "drawmap.help" that should contain help
- information (but does not, yet. German short instructions are
- displayed instead, probably not SO useful for the English
- speaking people)
- Pressing the HELP key is also supported !
-
-
- (2) Modifications:
-
- (a) A completely new user interface is provided that uses standard
- Amiga menus with a nice 3D effect
-
- (b) The executable is nearly 8 KBytes shorter now
-
- (c) Edit functions may be used with different colors. The active
- color is chosen by the "color" item of the "edit" menu. Each
- of the 4 screen colors may be selected.
-
- (d) Draw Line / Flood Fill / Text functions may be canceled
-
- (e) A backdrop borderless window is used instead of a gimmezerozero
- window, making it possible to cycle trough screens with the
- gadgets in the upper right corner of the screen.
