Thankyou for previewing StrucGen version 1.3!

StrucGen is an Intuition structure generator for the Amiga computer.  It
allows the user to create and arrange various objects inside a user-
definable window.  Once they are arranged as desired, StrucGen will
produce C output which can be incorporated into any program.  (Note that
this demonstration version does not produce any C output.)

Why?  To save you a great deal of time and trouble.  Consider what
StrucGen can do for you: no more bitmapping(!), no more guessing (StrucGen
uses a WYSIWYG approach whenever possible), and no more extensive manual
lookups.  You control object names and attributes.  StrucGen supports the 
following Intuition structures: Gadget, Image, Text, PropInfo, StringInfo, 
and NewWindow.  (Plans are already being made to support additional 
structures.)

StrucGen's output is VERY optimized.  Before writing its output files,
StrucGen first analyzes the structures.  Redundant image structures
are detected and deleted.  Identical bitmapping data is rejected.
Furthermore, StrucGen analyzes the bitmapping data to take full advantage 
of the PlanePick and PlaneOnOff variables.

For a somewhat sophisticated, practical example of what StrucGen can do,
download requester.zoo from GEnie or your local bulletin board.
Requester.zoo includes the C source code for the file requester which
StrucGen generated as well as the StrucGen readable files which were used to
create it.

The current retail price of StrucGen 1.3 (as of August 6, 1988) is $29.95(!).
This is a limited introductory offer for the first 50 customers only.  
(Customers thereafter will be able to purchase StrucGen for $49.95 and
receive full packaging, and printed documentation, etc.)
Dealers' inquiries are invited.


Some hints on using this demo: (Sorry I don't have time to write some
minidocs.)
You can click on any object (or the little box associated with a text
object) and hold the mouse button down to drag it around the window.  When
a gadget is selected, the outline is white, but an image or text outline is 
black.  When you click on part of a linked list of objects, the rest of the 
chain is outlined in red.  You must make an image and then use "Make Gadget" 
on the image menu to turn it into a gadget.  When resizing an image or 
gadget, StrucGen puts a little window around the object-- resize the window 
to the desired size of the object.  StrucGen reads and writes binary files 
with a ".StrucGen" extension.  There should be one or two samples in this
archive.

If you have any comments, please contact Rick at the above address.  We'd be
happy to make any reasonable improvements which you suggest.
