- AmiClock v1.0b - By Gareth Murfin aka Gaz
- -----------------------------------------
-
- This is a nice little Clock which I coded in Blitz, it has the date on it and
- should adapt to your workbench colours nicely so it can sit in the corner and
- inform you of the time all day long. This is why I have made it a BootUp
- utility because it can be started on every boot and still not look out of
- place. It has some extra features because I tried to get the most out of
- using BlitzBasic, they are :-
-
- o Needs NO installation, drag into your WBstartup drawer and its done!
- o Says an automated message on innitiation and closure (cool words :)
- o Uses Blitz Say and not Commodore, this SHOULD be more realistic :)
- o Can be ran simply by double clicking
- o Makes rebooting more interesting!
- o Works on ALL versions of Workbench and Setpatch *
- o Works on ALL Amiga's *
- o No Special requirements *²
-
- * This is TRUE in theory although it has only been tested on :-
- Workbench 3.1 + Amiga International® SetPatch 97 running on my
- A1200Tg 040/25/25/MMU + 18Meg RAM + 2xCD,520HD,
-
-
- *² Well actually there are very basic requirements, these are :-
- A battery backed up clock (Most Accelerators have these)
- The Translator.lib (included, simply copy to LIBS:)
-
-
- Right then, install this and then let me know what you think via email
- (gazy@globalnet.co.uk) Also look out on AmiNet for my other creations
- which are :-
-
- Dwarfx24.lha - The Ultimate AmIRC enhancement package
- Theme040.lha - An 040 patch for ThemePark
- ZombieFest.lha - A small Zombie Music and Gfx demo
- Dwarfdemo.lha - A small Music and Gfx demo with nice scrolling text
-
- Other Cool Utilities Ive made in Blitz Include :-
-
- AmiClock10a.lha - A nice Blitz Clock with date
- AmiGreet10a.lha - Greets you on BootUp
- AmiBlank10a.lha - Funky ScreenSaver!
- AmiTip10a.lha - Gives you a Tip every day of the year!
-
- At the moment I have coded in BlitzBasic, Arexx, Dos and Reality, I hope to learn
- C++ in the future but right now Im working on a game in BlitzBasic, let me know if
- you want to help or you just want details...
