1.	Requirements
=================================================
Jack runs on PalmOS 3.0 and higher.  Jack has been tested on a Palm 3 running
PalmOS 3.0 and a Palm V running PalmOS 3.1.1



2.	Installing Jack
=================================================
Unzip Jack using your favourite zip tool and install the .prc file onto your
Palm Pilot.  To do this use the Palm Install Tool - look in the Palm Desktop
folder.

Install the appropriate PRC file using your Palm Install Tool that you
can find near your Palm Desktop.



3.	What are alarm 'Attempts'?
=================================================
On the second page of the alarm setting wizard (the 'Setting the Alarm #2' 
page) you'll see an option marked 'How Many Attempts?'.

Unlike DateBook, Jack will try several times to alert you when its alarm goes
off.  Jack will ring the alarm twenty times.  If it hasn't been ackowledged 
by the end then it books another attempt in five minutes' time.  After trying
a certain number of these attempts Jack will give up.  You can specify the 
number of attempts Jack should make before giving up.



4.	Gradual Alarm
=================================================
There is a new option as of 1.2f, a Gradual Alarm.  This starts a bit more 
quietly than the regular alarm, ringing less often and beeping less often on 
each ring.  If you don't switch it off then on the next attempt the alarm is a 
bit more intrusive, and after that it goes back to normal.




5.	Change History
==================================================

1.2i	Feature:When setting the alarm time, you can now use the up and 
				down keys as well as dragging the alarm bell.

1.2h	Feature:Alarms can now be configured to only repeat on weekdays.
	
		Feature:The alarm can now be snoozed/cancelled with the hard down/up
				keys respectively.

		BugFix:	When pilot is reset, alarms are lost.  This version now resets
				the alarm to the right time.
				
		BugFix: If the user changed the alarm, but _didn't_ click 'done', the 
				new settings were lost.  This isn't the way Palm apps normally
				work.  Now the settings are applied as soon as the user changes
				them.
		
		
				

1.2g	BugFix:	When the alarm was in non-repeating mode.  After the alarm had
				fired and been acknowledged, the alarm icon on the Jack screen
				didn't change to show the alarm was no longer set.
