Notice:
Version 2.01.00 and above of AmiGantt makes use of functions within the
ARP (AmigaDos Replacement Program) library.  This library must be installed
in the LIBS directory of your system disk before attempting to use
AmiGantt 4.03.00.  A copy of arp.library file is included on the disk and
should be copied to LIBS:, then re-boot your Amiga before using AmiGantt
4.03.00

(ARP library is used/distributed with permission of the ARP developers.)

Contents of the archive:

  AmiGantt     -- the main program, which can be run from CLI or Workbench
  AmiGantt.info-- an icon file (for Workbench access) which should be renamed
		  to AMIGANTT.info

  AMIGANTT.doc -- the full documentation set for AMIGANTT
  READ.ME      -- this file
  Gantt430.txt -- things that were specifically changed in version 4.03.00

  arp.library  -- library file for ARP functions used in AmiGantt which
	          should be copied to the LIBS:  directory


Known Anomolies:
 1.  The Pert Chart is generated by starting at the last task in the project
      (denoted by the latest starting date) and working backwards through the
      dependency network.  If you have tasks which are not connected in some
      way to the last task, then they will not show up on the Pert Chart.

  2.  Although the top line in a Pert Chart is normally the critical path, for
      ease of display, AmiGantt puts the path with the greatest number of tasks
      at the top of the Pert.  In most cases, this will also be the critical
      but not always.  The Sort on Critical Path and Identify Critical Path
      options work correctly, selecting the path which has the longest planned
      duration.

  3.  Sorry, but because of difficulties in adjusting the text for use in
      the Gantt chart, I've had to force the screen text font to topaz 8 for the
      time being.

Bug Reports: Encouraged and welcomed.  Please address any comments to the
      author at any of the addresses above.
