ASwarm II V2.0 - Quick Install
ASwarm II V2.0 provides "Load Config", "Save Config"
features.
It's no longer necessary to edit the Parameters of ASwarm II
with the Tooltype Entries in the Icon with the "Information"
function of the workbench.
This features does only work, when you start ASwarm II from
the workbench.
REQUIREMENTS:
ASwarm II 2.0 needs at least Workbench 2.0. It is
recommended to use Version 2.1 or 3.0 of Workbench.
Also, ASwarm II 2.0 needs the MUI System with at least
Version 1.4. See MUI.readme and below.
QUICK-INSTALL:
If you don't have the Installer Tool, please follow the
description in this text.
The Installer Tool has been officially released by Commodore
and you can get it from various places, i.e. the AmiNet or
the Fred Fish AmigaLib Disks. It is free and was especially
designed for installing packages.
Copy "ASwarm" and "ASwarm.info" to the "SYS:WBStartup"
drawer. Or just click and move (drag) the "ASwarm" icon to
"SYS:WBStartup".
CLI: Copy ASwarm ASwarm.info TO SYS:WbStartup
QUICK-SETUP:
Now start ASwarm with a double-click on it's icon. If the
Config-Window doesn't show up, double-click the icon once
more, this should open the window. If it still doesn't:
have you been copying ASwarm, too, not just the Icon ?
Edit all desired Parameters, e.g. number of bees, speed and
Display Mode.
Now use the "Save Config" in the "Project Menu" (or press
"Right Amiga S").
The Configuration will be saved into the Icon. On next
start, this Configuration will be used.
Have fun with these new features.
For interest: We use the Icon.library to access to the Tool
Type Entries. This is only possible when ASwarm II is
started from the workbench. Existing Tool Types Entries
will be overwritten.
MUI SPECIFIC:
Please have in mind that the Edit Window of ASwarm can only
be opened when the MUI system is installed. Refer to the
file ReadMe.MUI.
ONLINE HELP:
To use the Online Help, there are three different ways:
You copy the file "<ASwarm>/English/ASwarm.guide" into the
directory where ASwarm will be started. (Not recommended)
Or you enhance the file ENV:AmigaGuide/Path (and
ENVARC:AmigaGuide/Path) with the entry "<ASwarm>/English".
(Recommended if you want to install Doc-Files in a seperate
directory)
The Installer Tool copies the Guide-Files to the directory
HELP:English; this is since WB 2.1 the default search path,
you can do also. (Recomended)
