- Fli.lib is a library of routines for creating and playing Autodesk Animator
- compatible .fli files. Fli.lib was developed with Turbo C and has also
- been tested with Microsoft C. It is a large model library. A detailed
- description of fli.lib is in flidoc.txt. flidoc.txt also includes byte-by-byte
- descriptions of most of the file formats used in the Autodesk Animator.

- Dancing Flame is a small company dedicated to animation software and
- graphic simulations. We keep odd hours and often go on unannounced
- vacations. There is no phone answering machine. You are likely to
- get answers to your questions as quickly by mail as by phone. However
- if you must call you are more likely to get an answer from 1:00 to 6:00
- in the afternoon, or on Fridays. If you have a BIX account, mail to
- jim_kent usually is answered in a day or two.
-
- The source to fli.lib is broken up into many small modules (58 in all)
- so that programs that do not use much of the fli.lib will not be burdened
- with excess code. Normally the linker will handle which modules to
- include for you, and you need not even look at the source. However if your
- programming environment is not compatible with Turbo C large model libraries
- or in other ways is unusual you may have to explore the sources. (You
- may be just curious for that matter.) To assist this there is a tags
- file included in the source archive which lists all C global symbols
- alphabetically, and what file they are in.

-
- Thank you very much. I hope the fli.lib is useful to you.
