**************************** ** ** ** THE MONEY PROGRAM V1.5 ** ** ** **************************** INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREFERENCES ---------------------------- Version 1.5 has 6 options which can be changed to suit the users needs. 1) Colours 2) Automatic Loading 3) Sound 4) Keyboard / Mouse Input Response 5) Ctrl C to Break from Program 6) Automatic Clearing of Transaction Ticks ----------------------------- 1) Colours ---------- "The Money Program" uses 8 colours. To alter any of these colours click on the appropriate box and adjust the mixture of Red, Green and Blue of the colour. Users should note that drastic changes of colours may produce results which can make some screens unreadable. Colours such as red, blue, yellow, black and white are really integral parts of the program and shouldn't be changed much. 2) Automatic Loading -------------------- When this option is set to ON the program will, when started initially, miss out the title screen and confirmation of Todays Date, and then will launch into the option LOAD FROM DATA DISK. Using this option is only of any use to users with a battery backed up clock which will ensure the correct date is loaded. Also, having the data disk mounted will ensure that the program can immediately load the data on start-up. Single drive owners will find this option more useful if they save their data onto their Program Disk - Please make sure, however, that you use a copy of the original Program Disk. 3) Sound -------- Self-explanatory. Note that turning the sound off will also turn off the alarm sound. 4) Keyboard / Mouse Input Response ---------------------------------- Alters the speed at which the program reacts to keyboard presses and mouse buttons. Right mouse button to slow down this response and left mouse button to speed up the response. 5) Ctrl C to Break from Program ------------------------------- If set to ON, the user will be able to escape from the program at any stage instead of only from the Main Menu. A word of warning though, escaping using Control C will not allow the program to check if the users last command was a SAVE command. 6) Automatic Clearing of Transaction Ticks ------------------------------------------ Please see the main document file for a description of Transaction Ticks. ---------- End of File -------------
