1 - Introduction
================
BeatIt is a netbeat clock for AmigaOS. It displays
the so called "beat" in a small window on the desktop.
One day consists of 1000 beats.
The beat was invented by Swatch®, a watchmaker located
in switzerland.
2 - Usage
=========
First make sure that you have the times.font installed in
your FONTS: directory.
Simply start BeatIt from Workbench. You can also start it
from CLI or WBStartup...
If you are not living in a country where GMT is valid,
you have to set the environment-variable ENV:TZ
It must start with the timezone as offset from GMT in the
±hhmm format. This is compatible to the "beet" program by
ELAL Kosher.
To set the variable type the following: setenv TZ +0100
This is the correct value for e.g. Germany.
To quit BeatIt klick the top-left of the window.
3 - Preferences
===============
This is a limited feature in this version :-)
The only thing you can do is to set the window-position.
To do so, just edit the file "BeatIt.prefs" with an editor
and write the X-coordinate into the first line and the Y-
coordinate into the second line. This file must be in the
same directory as BeatIt.
Maybe there will be more options in future.
4 - Bugs
========
Yes, of course :-)
There will be two Enforcer-hits when starting BeatIt. This
is a bug in ACE when opening a font :-(
