GAME, SET AND MATCH
BEFORE YOU START
================
Before using any of the programs, please make backup copies of your disks
and lock away your master disks. That way, if you ever damage your disk
you can always make a fresh working copy.
Computer Viruses
----------------
Sharing disks with friends has become the major cause for the rapid spread
of computer viruses. Some of these are fairly harmless but nevertheless
annoying. Others are very nasty and will show varying symptoms from
diskettes not loading unless not write protected, diskettes being
destroyed, programs not loading or crashing. Once you have a virus in
amongst your disks they are difficult to get rid of, not to say time
consuming. imagine spending hours creating a story only to lose it all.
Imagine collecting a years worth of data for a project and losing all that.
Don't risk it. Be extremely careful who you take disks from. And don't
give disks away. If you already have a virus in amongst your disks, your
friends will not thank you for corrupting their disks
NOTE:
----
If you have a 512K Amiga with an additional external disk drive, you may
have to disconnect that drive before you can load some of the enclosed
programs.
TERMINOLOGY
-----------
In this document, to click on something means to move the mouse pointer to
and item and then press the left mouse button. To double click is to press
the left mouse button twice rapidly.
Some of the programs take quite some time to load, please be patient and
NEVER take a disk out if the green disk light is on
REMEMBER, some of the programs take up to a minute to load and whilst
loading, the screen may not show any activity for a while. If the green
"drive" light is still on, your program is still loading.
Getting Going
-------------
Game Set and Match is very simple in concept. Simply turn your Amiga on,
put in the disk and when the program has loaded, it will ask you for your
name.
Type in your name and press "return".
Point the mouse and click at any of the green selection "buttons" on the
screen to choose the activity you want.
Once the individual activity is loaded, use the left mouse button or the
space bar to control the game. Follow the instructions on the screen for
each of the activities.
Note that all the selection "buttons" have a letter in the box eg <A>
instead of clicking with the mouse, you can select the activity by holding
down the control key on the keyboard and pressing this letter.
Choose activity <S> (options) to select different speeds and control
sounds.
