- 3 TOOLS
-
- 3.1 INTRODUCTION
-
- When you are programming you need a lot of utilities and extra
- programs like image converter, sound editors, disk viewers,
- etc, etc, etc... Almost everything you need can be found in the
- public domain / share ware libraries. I have therefore only
- included three small but very handy utilities.
-
- 1. The Pointer To Sprite (P2S) utility will simply print the
- mouse pointer's image in C code. You can design the sprite
- image with help of Preference and then convert it into C
- with help of this program.
-
-
- 2. With the new Workbench V2.X the default colours were
- changed. Old icons with the new Workbench colours, as well
- as new icons with the old Workbench colours, will look very
- strange.
-
- The second utility, SwapCols, will swap colour 1 and 2 of
- any icon. This utility can therefore be used to convert old
- icons to fit the new Workbench colours and vice versa. All
- icons in this manual are designed for the new Workbench
- colours, but can easily be converted to fit the old system
- with help of this program.
-
- SwapCols was written by Paul Hammant, copyright Wheelbarrow
- Software Ltd, 1991. He has given me the right to include it
- with this manual. Many thanks!
-
-
- 3. The last utility, Pager, will print any text file on both
- sides of the paper. It has specially been designed to print
- the document files in this manual. It will automatically
- put the page numbers and the chapter title at the top of the
- page.
-
- Pager was written by Dick Taylor, who has given me the right
- to include it with this manual. Many thanks!
