Readme for ThingIcn 1.10, (c) 1996-1998 Arno Welzel and Thomas Binder

Yes indeed, the new ThingIcn is ready! Although it took longer than I
|
|
would have liked, I hope it was worth the wait!
|
|
|
|
If you are still confused about the purpose of this program, ThingIcn is
|
|
the Icon Manager for Thing, the alternative desktop for all computers with
|
|
TOS-compatible operating systems. Those who do not use Thing, or know it,
|
|
won't be able to do much with ThingIcn. If you have never heard anything
|
|
about Thing, you should get hold of the THIN125E.LZH archive as soon as
|
|
you can -- it should be available from the same place as ThingIcn.
|
|
|
|
Installation of ThingIcn is very simple: THINGICN.APP and THINGICN.RSC
|
|
must be copied into the same directory that contains THING.APP -- and
|
|
that's it! One can then call up the Icon Manager from Thing via the
|
|
'Extra - Edit Icons...' menu entry.
|
|
|
|
Oh yes, OK, one should of course copy THINGICN.HYP and THINGICN.REF into
|
|
the hypertext folder (usually ST_GUIDE\GUIDES\) to savour the advantages
|
|
of on-line help; one can also read all the details about using the
|
|
program there. Naturally, ST_GUIDE.ACC (or .PRG) has to be active on your
|
|
system in order to make use of this.
|
|
|
|
I would like to express my thanks here to Dirk Klemmt, who has contributed
|
|
a great deal to completing the new ThingIcn -- in addition the 3D-look
|
|
naturally also comes from him!
|
|
|
|

|
|
hypertext, then you can ask me. My address:

Oh, I nearly forgot: Though ThingIcn was developed with great care and
|
|
tested extensively, the possibility of some bugs remaining cannot be
|
|
excluded. I therefore cannot guarantee that it is free from all errors,
|
|
and can accept no liability for any kind of damage that has arisen or may
|
|
arise from proper or improper use of ThingIcn. Use is at you own risk!
