*------------------------------------* | Digital Clock | | | | An Extend-O-Save Module for Warp 9 | | | | Version 1.3 | | | | ½ 1993 CodeHead Technologies | | by Charles F. Johnson | *------------------------------------* Digital Clock displays the time and date, floating around your screen and bouncing off the edges. It requires Warp 9 v3.80 or higher to function as a screensaver, but you can run it without Warp 9 in a special "demonstration mode" by renaming it to CLOCK.PRG and launching it just as you would any other program. If you use CodeHead's HotWire program launching utility, there's no need to rename it; you can run Digital Clock as a program simply by clicking the "Running Man" icon and selecting CLOCK.EXT. Digital Clock is completely resolution-independent, and will work in all screen modes on ST, TT, or Falcon computers. Demonstration Mode ------------------ When you run Digital Clock as a program (in other words, in demonstration mode) you can view it and play with its options for two minutes. When Digital Clock is loaded as a screensaver module by Warp 9, it normally saves configuration changes automatically when you exit by clicking the OK button. However, when run in demonstration mode Digital Clock does not save your changes. Configuration Options --------------------- TIME FONT: Digital Clock allows you to choose from among four different typefaces; Dutch (Times), Swiss (Helvetica), Charter, or Vag Rounded. These four buttons determine which font is used for the time. DATE FONT: These buttons determine which font is used for the date. SPEED: You get two flavors here -- SLOW or FAST. DATE STYLE: This setting determines whether the date is shown in "US" format (Month-Day-Year) or "European" format (Day-Month-Year). SHOW SECONDS: If this button is selected, Digital Clock shows the seconds ticking away (e.g. 12:15:27). Deselect the button to show only the hour and minutes fields (e.g. 12:15). SHOW DATE: If this button is selected, Digital Clock shows the date as well as the time. Deselect the button to show only the time. Please note that the configuration box also has a question mark button, located in the upper right corner. Click this button to see a page of information about the module. Version 1.1 ----------- This version fixes a small bug that prevented Digital Clock from saving its configuration. No other changes. Version 1.2 ----------- This version fixes a problem which prevented Digital Clock from working correctly on systems without a built-in clock chip. Version 1.3 ----------- Digital Clock 1.3 adds a bouncing date line, and fixes a bug that resulted in an incorrect display when used in two-color modes on a Falcon. Also, version 1.1 can now save its configuration even if the file is renamed to something other than CLOCK.EXT. If You Don't Have it Yet... --------------------------- ...then you need Warp 9, the feature-packed graphics acceleration utility that also contains a modular screensaver similar to After Dark (tm). The Warp 9 package comes on two disks, includes dozens of interesting and entertaining screensaver modules, and sells for only $44.95 retail. You can buy it at your favorite dealer (make sure to ask for version 3.80) or directly from CodeHead Technologies. A press release documenting the many new features in Warp 9 v3.80 has been distributed through the electronic media. Owners of previous versions of Warp 9 can upgrade to v3.80 by sending their original disk, $25 for the upgrade, plus $3 shipping (4$ Canada, $6 overseas) to: CodeHead Technologies Voice: (213) 386-5735 P.O.
