NOTICE

NewCon is Copyright (C) 1988 by Bob Crow - All Rights Reserved, except
as outlined below!

NewCon is being released into the public domain as SHAREWARE and may be
distributed freely, by any means, as long as it has not been modified
and this notice accompanies it.

NewCon provides two useful functions.  First it monitors the information
from the keyboard and creates an audible click (actually a "beep") as
certain keys are pressed.  Second, it monitors the InputDevice to
determine the time interval between input events (inactivity).  If this
inactivity exceeds the value specified by the user, the Amiga's screen
is blanked.  The screen is restored to normal by the first input
received from the keyboard or mouse.

The resident routines (those that remain in memory after execution and
provide the features), occupy only 632 bytes of memory.

The volume of the key click and the duration of inactivity are
adjustable with the utility NewConAdj (see below).

  NOTE: NewCon MUST BE IN THE "c" OR "System" Directories FOR NewConAdj
	TO PATCH IT!.

NewCon requires no parameters on its command line:

NewCon(RETURN)

Will invoke NewCon and create a key click and screen blanking functions.
NewCon may be added to the "s" directory startup-sequence to provide for
automatic execution at startup.  Put NewCon in your "c" directory and
add this line to the startup-sequence file:

c/NewCon

When NewCon executes, it displays a message informing you of the status
of that execution.

Default Values for NewCon are:

Key click volume = -12 dB (this is only a relative value from Table 5-8 in
		   the AMIGA (TM) Hardware Reference Manual, Page 160).

Screen blanking interval - 5 minutes.

When used with NewConAdj:

The volume is adjustable throughout the range of the above referenced
Table.

Screen blanking intervals:

INF - Never blanks
1   - Minute
3   - Minutes
5   - Minutes
7   - Minutes
10  - Minutes
15  - Minutes
20  - Minutes


The following keys will not create a click when they are pressed:

****************************** Amigans *********************************
Apparently, the NewConAdj program mentioned above is only given to
registered users.  At least, I was unable to obtain a copy of that
program from the boards.  If you like (or are used to) audible feedback
from your keyboard, this program will give you that, without sacrificing
a lot of memory.

Enjoy!
