Documentation for TubeFinder 2.0
--------------------------------
Based on public domain tube database and search algorithm of Russ Heath.
Not *guaranteed* to find the quickest route, but it *will* get you there!
This version released into the public domain. v2.0 is v1.0 plus some extra
work done by Jan Willem Ruys, who seems quite keen to carry on and develop
it further. Mail him on jr@dnmail.gen.getronics.nl
Installation:
==============
Put the TUBE.OPA file in any \APP directory and install using Psion-I.
Make a TUBE subdirectory from the same \APP directory (i.e. \APP\TUBE)
and put the TUBE.DAT file in there, i.e. \APP\TUBE\TUBE.DAT
Put the TUBE.DBF and TUBE.PIC files into an \OPD\ directory on the same drive.
Jan Ruys and Steve Litchfield, Christmas 1993
-------------------------
From Jan:
I found your 'TubeFinder' on our local Psion BBS, and this is the sort of
application which shows the strength of the Psion computer in the field.
Using 'RevTran' I de-compiled it and brushed up the user-interface a bit
to look more like other Psion programs. I also included an option to set
default departure and arrival stations, by modifying the .dbf file which
is located in M:\OPD (the fields speak for themselves). If this database
is not found, defaulting is skipped.
Also, on my 1993 London Underground map, the colors of the lines are a
bit different (Jubilee & Picadilly). I changed this.
