Program to animate busy pointer.
.description
What is this Sleep stuff ??
Well, have you ever work on WindowsNT and saw the animated busy
pointers?
"Gosh, my Amiga is better than a PeeCe and my Workbench only shows a
little-tiny stopped busy pointer!"
You may say: "use PointerX, or LacePointer"
no way : PointerX only shows a ugly bysypointer in lowres !!!
You can also say: "use PatchPointer to make the busypointer hires."
Ok ... try it and you will see the busypointer becomes stopped!
Damn ...
LacePointer in other way only works in screenmodes of PAL/NTSC. If
you have a brand new AGA amiga, that is in MULTISCAN or DBLPAL, or
something else, no LacePointer.
Those little problems, motivated me to program SleepingPointers.
After some time, SleepingPointers has born!
Now, animated busy pointers in hires is easy.
If i receive enough feedback, i will do a Prefs Program so that you
can load you favourite ANIMATION/ANIMBRUSH of a busy pointer and use
it!
