Kurz:     Einsteller für Datatypes von A. Kleinert

  ( USE THIS README AS A DOC AND DOWNLOAD IT, TOO )

  This program doesn't have a documentation because it's nearly self-explaining
  and it would cost me much more work. It is one program which allows to
  configure all datatypes of Andreas R. Kleinert ( GIF, JFIF, LJPG, PNG, SVG ).
  This program was written in E (thanks Wouter) and uses the "bgui.library"
  (thanks to Manuel Lemos and all other bgui-developers)

  COPYRIGHTS
  ----------

    This software is stated in the PUBLIC DOMAIN so you can do with that
    package what you want. You are using this piece of software at your
    own risk, so the author can not be held responsible for any problem
    occuring with it.


  INSTALLATION
  ------------

    Installation is very simple. Simply copy your desired catalog to
    it's corresponding location on the SYS: partition. Copy the main
    program "akPrefs" to any location you want. On my system it is
    located on "SYS:Prefs/Datatypes/".


  HOW TO USE
  ----------

    If the window appears you can see a cycle-gadget at the top and a row
    of buttons at the bottom. The cycle-gadget contains the name of the
    current selected datatype (f.e. JFIF means configuration for akJFIF.datatype).
    You can switch between the datatypes while pressing this gadget or
    simply pressing the <SPACE>-key. If you have selected the "JFIF" page
    you can switch between general and special settings by pressing the
    "+"-key. If you want to use the settings for a datatype temporarily
    you have to switch to the page of this datatype and then press the
    middle button of the button-row below. If you want to save them for
    all time then press the left button of this row. If you want to exit
    this program you have to press the right button. Whenever you are
    pressing the left or the middle button only the configuration files
    of the current selected datatype are changed, so if you want to
    store the configurations of all datatypes, you have to select all
    pages and then press the middle or left button.


  FEEDBACK
  --------

    If you are using this program, you can send me a notice so I can
    think about to make it more completely (adding a real doc, tooltips
    etc. ). So feel free to contact me, especially when you have found
    a bug.

  BUGS
  ----

    1.4  : None known.
    1.2  : The message "Not enough memory available !" occured while
           saving the configuration. This error is a result of the
           new layout because the type of the gadget to switch between
           the datatypes has changed. Sorry, for this.
           Fixed in version 1.3 .
