Short: Swedish version! Kul program p svenska! Author: di3andpe@ida.his.se (Anders Persson) Uploader: di3andpe@ida.his.se (Anders Persson) Version: 5.3 SV Type: comm/misc English note: This program is also available in english: Aminet: comm/misc/BorayLetter53.lha * * * Systemkrav: BorayLetter behöver minst AmigaDos1.3+ och ca: 600K minne. * * * Introduktion: Välkommen till Boray Letter, "Kungen bland letter-program". Du kanske inte vet vad ett letterprogram är. Jo, "Letter" är engelska och betyder "brev". Letterprogram var något som först startade på 64'an. Man kunde använda tangentbordet till att skriva ett meddelande till en kompis, och sedan när han tittade på det, så spelades det upp likadant som det var skrivet.... BorayLetter är detta plus mycket mycket mer... Man kan till exempel rita linjer eller vänta på att en tangent skall tryckas ned. Man kan till och med göra animationer och egna tecknade filmer!!! När man t.ex ritar en linje i sitt brev, så är det endast koordinaterna till linjen som sparas till filen. All grafiken fungerar på detta sätt och leder till ett extremt utrymmes- snålt filformat. Ta till exempel demo-brevet "Cecdic". Det innehåller 4:30 minuters tecknad film och tar endast upp 32 kilobytes (okomprimerat). Om man sedan packar den med SHRINK, blir den 21K stor, eller 24K med LHA. * * * Använd det: Ha riktigt kul nu!!! Nästa gång du tänker skicka ett brev (eller e-mail) till någon amigaägare, så skicka ett levande brev! Ett BorayLetter-brev! * * * Rättigheter: BorayLetter är Shareware, men du kan själv bestämma hur mycket du tycker att det är värt. För mer detaljer så trycker du på "Help"-tangenten medan du läser eller gör ett brev. * * * Historia/Nyheter: (engelska) Version 5.3 (January 1998) * Bugfix: The error handling was disabled in the last version. * The disk cache was highly optimized. (It's much faster now) * The program was translated to swedish. (Aminet: comm/misc/BorayLetter53SV.lha) * * * Version 5.2 (November 1997) * BorayLetter can now run under AmigaDos 1.3!!! So, now you can make letters to people with old Amiga500's (Like my brothers children :-) If you are using AmigaDos1.3, the ARP filerequester will be used instead of the ASL filerequester. arp.library is included in this archive. But the program "BLC" still needs AmigaDos2.0+ * New internal disk cache for the graphics brushes/copies. This speeds up the animations. Especially animations that uses brushes on floppy disks. So, this is great for systems without a hard drive! To reset the cache, just go to the main menu. * Big Bug fixed: Animations wasn't recorded if you didn't move it around while putting copies. * More graphics copies in the letters/g directory. * * * Version 5.1 (August 1997) The only thing that is new since 5.0, is that BorayLetter no longer needs a 68020 to run. First I only made a 68000 version of 5.0. But when I discovered that this version was in fact a little bit faster than the 020 version on my 030, I changed my mind... And released the 000 version as 5.1 (But the program is not really tested on a 68000, but I think it will work. If it won't: Send me an email!) * * * Version 5.0: (June-July 1997) This is the greatest update ever!!! (No wonder, I had to catch up with 5 ears of no development at all :) Well, For this version I have added: * Intuition Menus * Undo * Insert * Mouse operated menus on the Main Screen * MedRes screenmode * ASL Filerequester * Mouse operated Y/N requesters * New Palette requester * New memory management * Now possible to draw with brushes and lines * The interface between you and the graphics functions was reworked. (You can now see what you are doing) * New space saving file format (Takes only about 30% of the space the old format required!!!) * Can load and convert old letters * The program is much faster!!! * New speed requester * Now possible to insert a delay of X vblanks without changing the playback speed. This way, you can use speed 0 for turbo drawing, and then insert some delays where you want - Useful for animations. * Security aspects are taken care of A letter can now only write temporary files to the ram disk. Before, someone could for example make a letter that destroyed your system files... But not any longer!!! * Temporary files are removed when the letter that created them has ended. * The program is more system friendly and multitaskig friendly!!! * The program has in other words become more usable!!!!! * * * Version 4.06 (921228) * * * Version 3.0 (920223) * * * Version 2.x (??????) * * * Version 1.1 (910312) New stuff in... Main menu: Continue Making, Kill files Making Letter: Save graphics copy, Load graphics copy, wait for any key, Circle, Palette, Reset Colors, Auto Foreground/back- ground-colors Reading Letter: Save graphics Copy, Set Speed, Print Screen * * * Version 1.0 (910223) First version. Main menu: Make, Read, Save, Load, Quit, Change Memory Storage, Read Directory, Change Directory Make Letter Features: Change color, Get graphics copy, put graphics copy, Line, Lines, Box, Filled Box, Fill, Clear Screen. Read Letter Features: Pause. The speed is prompted before reading. * * * -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- * Also Try * Aminet: util/misc/selector60.lha Highly configurable launching tool for almost any purpose. But it is not yet another program like toolsdeamon or launchingpad. Selector serves as a complement to these types of programs. It's more like a script language. Selector is a powerful tool to use within shell scripts or to make a little GUI for your CLI type program. I have for example made a GUI for GMPlay (mus/midi/GMPlayGUI15.lha on Aminet) using selector. It is really easy to produce a button panel, info window, popup menu or a little requester with selector. Last minute update: SELECTOR 7.0 will be released really soon! That will be, Aminet: util/misc/selector70.lha -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- * Also Try * Aminet: mods/boray My DigiBooster and Protracker music modules.
