	*** Media Library Installation Instructions ***


Extraction
----------

  The distribution will create a 'dist' directory within
your destination: it's suggested you create a 'MediaLib' dir
and point there the unarchiver.

  The 'dist' directory contains:

	- COPYING     : disclaimer and copyright
	- usrdist.lha : user distribution
	- devdist.lha : developer distribution
	- srcdist.lha : source examples distribution
	- WhatsWhere  : directory roadmap
	- HowToInstall: this very file

These archives also should be extracted relative to your 'MediaLib'.

  I ask you to NOT SPREAD around the distribution, since it's incomplete
and is suited for IPISA '95: you should only have got it there.

  The IPISA '95 people has got my permission to distribute this
version of Media Library.


Hardware & software
-------------------

  All code was compiled for 68020 - this means at least an A1200 -
and uses some functions in Exec 2.0 - namely AllocVec(), FreeVec() -
so I'm sorry for unexpanded A500 and A2000 owners.

  It wasn't THOROUGHLY tested, but it doesn't crash, nor eat memory
nor wipe out disks! Of course, this DOESN'T mean the system can be
hammered hard: TRY IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT!

  The memory consumption is very low: around 12KB for media.library,
and less than 20KB for the sample classes.


And finally...
--------------

Add this to s:user-startup

;BEGIN Media Library
if exists "<somewhere>/MediaLib"
	assign MEDIALIB: "<somewhere>/MediaLib"
	assign add LIBS: medialib:libs
;END Media Library

To use guides, AmigaGuide needs:

if not exists ENV:AmigaGuide
	makedir ENV:AmigaGuide
	setenv AmigaGuide/path medialib:include
else
	setenv AmigaGuide/path "${AmigaGuide/path} medialib:include"
endif

Of course, to set it permanently, remember to set ENVARC:AmigaGuide/path also.
