NEWDESK ICON EDITOR CPX v2.13 -> v2.15 Patch Program
Copyright (c)1992 Software Development Systems
Written by Scott Sanders
==============================================================================
USAGE
>>>>>
The files enclosed in this archive are used to update the file ICONEDIT.CPX
from version 2.13 to 2.15. It will not update the following files:
ICONEDIT.CPX versions less than 2.13
Most Review Copies
Non-USA versions of ICONEDIT.CPX
Any other files.
The version number of the CPX can be found by clicking once one the CPX's
entry in the control panel list and then selecting 'CPX Info...' from the
'Options' popup.
Only the CPX itself needed to be updated. If you have a version of the CPX
lower than 2.15 you must either first obtain the patch program which will
update you to 2.13 and then use this update package or contact SDS as
outlined below.
To complete the update run PATCH215.PRG. Make sure that PATCH215.DAT and
PATCH215.RSC are in the same directory as PATCH215.PRG or it won't run
properly.
A dialog will appear warning you to use this update process only on a
backup of your original file. DO NOT UPDATE YOUR ONLY COPY! Select
'Update' to proceed with the update process.
Use the file selector to select the version of ICONEDIT.CPX you wish to
update. Select OK and the file will be updated if all is well. If an
error occurred contact SDS as mentioned below to update your copy.
The old CPX will be renamed ICON213.CPZ.
REQUIREMENTS
>>>>>>>>>>>>
You will require about 250k of free memory to run the update program and
space on disk for both the old and new versions of the editor (about 160k).
WHAT'S DIFFERENT?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Version 2.15 corrects two serious bugs that could lead to mysterious crashes.
In addition, NIC has been made 'SAM aware' (see below).
SAM AWARE
>>>>>>>>>
'SAM' stands for System Audio Manager, an SDS product developed for Atari
which allows you to attach sampled sounds to common system events like
windows opening and closing, key clicks, and system beeps. In addition,
SAM has the ability to allow applications to register itself with it
by installing a .SAM file. After doing so, common application events like
Find, Copy, Paste, Save, Exit, etc... can be assigned sounds.
'SAM' was developed for Atari and as such, is their product, therefore its
availability is unknown at this time, however, a SAM file has been included
with this archive (ICONEDIT.SAM) which when installed will allow you to assign
sampled sounds to several internal functions inside the icon editor using SAM.
Detailed instructions for doing so will be included with SAM.
