- As my first OS/2 Presentation Manager program, I extensively commented and
- then extended Charles Petzold's TIMELINE.C program from Volume 8 Number 6
- (March 28, 1989) of "PC Magazine." For acknowledgements, restrictions,
- and instructions on what this version of TIMELINE does, see the front of
- TIMELINE.C. I hope someone can find it as useful as I have.
-
- TIMELINE.C was compiled with Microsoft C 5.1 and the header files and tools
- from the Microsoft OS/2 SDK 1.06 (the equivalent of the IBM OS/2 SE 1.1
- files).
-
- Oddities:
-
- 1. The name of the make file is TIMELINE.MAK rather than the conventional
- TIMELINE.
-
- 2. I have compiled and linked TIMELINE as a large model and ready to be used
- with Codeview.
-
- 3. TIMELINE.MAK references a program not distributed with TIMELINE, TOUCH
- (which updates the creation time of a file to the current time), to make
- sure that the TIMELINE resource file isn't created more frequently than
- necessary. You can safely remove the TOUCH line from TIMELINE.MAK if
- if you do not have your own program similar to TOUCH.
