QUANTIK

QUANTIK is a game of interconnecting blocks. One by one, block pieces appear
anywhere on the playing grid. The player picks them up with a mouse click (or
a keyboard key stroke). Others mouse clicks (or key strokes) allow the user to
turn pieces and move them. When a horizontal line is completed, it
disappears, freeing playing space up. Left over squares from broken pieces
can be picked up as normal pieces.

PC hardware/software requirements:
	- VGA screen,
	- 80286 processor (or faster),
	- 512Ko memory (minimum),
	- MS-DOS 3.0 (or later),
	- mouse.

QUANTIQ consists of:
 1) QUANTIK.EXE with help file (.hyp) and options file (.cfg)
 2) the printable documentation: quantik.doc
 3) the registration letter: register.txt
 4) the menu picture: quantik.mdl
 5) files of pieces: pieces1.pce, pieces2.pce, etc...
 6) files of colors: animat.pal and quantik.pal
 7) a font file: trip.chr
 8) the file of sounds: example.son
 9) files of scores: pieces1.sco and pieces2.sco
 10) this file: read_me.txt
 11) distributors' texts and picture: vendors.txt, file_id.diz, quantik.tif


All above files must be in the same directory; this directory must be the
current directory.

You do not have to copy the software onto your hard disk. However, if you
run from a CD-ROM, error messages will appear as it is impossible to write
to a CD-ROM. Please answer appropriately (i.e. 'Return' or 'A' for Abort)
to each message.

If you register:
  - you can change the shape and the color of pieces;
  - the message about registration at the end disappears.

If you want to give Quantik to your friends to try it out, I would be
delighted, but only give them the unregistered version (shareware concept).
