D2B.DOC - 11/94
Have you ever done something really stupid in Doom that you wish you hadn't?
And then you saved your game? Yikes!
This is a cosmetic program I whipped up that you can use in any batch program
you want. I currently use it to occupy my eyes while ZIP backs up my Doom2
saved games (see d.bat). However, please don't restrict its use to running
Doom2. Use it in all of your favorite batch files.
It trounces a "Please wait..." message!
------------ * ------------
Usage: d2b [foreground] [background] [Text]
where [foreground] is one of sixteen text color names (see below). [background]
is one of eight background color names (see below). [Text] is up to 80
characters of text you want to display on the bottom, center of the screen.
Text longer than 80 characters will get snipped.
------------ * ------------
Examples: d2b green black I'm backing up your fraggin' game files!
D2B LIGHTGREEN BLUE PUNCH ANY DAMN KEY TO CONTINUE!
d2b x y Quit whinin'! Your flippin' floppy is formatting!

Please let me know if you use this program and what I should add or change.
I can send you the C++ source code, if you want.
