WarpSNESLauncher 1.01 - Read Me
-------------------------------


1. What is WSL
--------------
WarpSNESLauncher (WSL for short) is a GUI for the fantastic Amiga version of
SNES9X: WarpSNES by Steffen Haeuser. No doubt the best SNES-emulator for AMIGA/
PPC. Instead of spending your time with shell, writing those terrible long
commandlines you can use this small utility.


2. How to use WSL
-----------------
WSL should be pretty self-explaining. For more info on the effect of the
various buttons please consult the readme of WarpSNES. Clicking the 'Save'
button will cause WSL to save your current settings in S:WSL.cfg. 'Run' will
start WarpSNES. A log file will be placed in T:WSLlog.txt.


3. The future of WSL
--------------------
If everything works fine there should not be a reason for a new version. That
is unless Steffen creates a new version of WarpSNES and still doesn't want to
do a GUI...


4. Credits for WSL
------------------
WSL is coded in AMOSPro by Rune J. Keller (keller@vip.cybercity.dk). I have
used the great GUI extension by Pietro Ghizzoni (ghizzo@agonet.it). Thanks to
Steffen Haeuser (magicsn@birdland.es.bawue.de) for the great WarpSNES and his
kind help!
