- Hello Everybody!
-
- I am sorry, but this collection doesn´t contain a detailed English guide,
- yet. The reason for this is that there doesn´t seem to be a need for it,
- as there are only few reactions to my collection :-( I am sorry! However the
- next release could have such a big guide, it depends on you!
- Meanwhile you´ll have to read this LITTLE text/guide instead, with
- everything IMPORTANT to know in it! What you´re missing, are my comments on
- (almost) each of my icons... I think you will survive that ;-)
-
- But now to the important stuff:
-
- 1. Status
- ------
- This software is CARDWARE! This means you should send me a picture-
- postcard of your hometown, or AT LEAST an email (both is also
- acceptable ;-). There is *NO NEED* to send me any money, but if you
- like...
-
- 2. My address (to write or to contact me):
- ----------
- Mario Cattaneo
- Bruchwiesenanlage 4-701/2
- D-66125 Saarbrücken
- GERMANY
- E-mail: cattaneo@cscip.uni-sb.de
-
- 3. Garantee
- --------
- This software comes with NO garantee at all! If you use it you accept
- any risc that could come with it. The author can´t be blamed for any loss
- of data because of you using these icons. This Software doesn´t claim to
- be bug-free nor complete. It is as it is. The copryright belongs to the
- author!
-
- 4. Legal Stuff
- -----------
- The software must stay unchanged and in one part. It must NOT be partely
- distributed in other collections (without the authors permission)!
- If this collection is spread on a PD disc, the prise for it must not be
- over 5US$ and it has to contain at least 800KB of software. Distributing
- on CD IS allowd.

- 5. New Drawer (X-Stuff)
- --------------------
- This drawer contains a palette which helps you converting your dock-
- brushes, so that you can use them on a Un*x system, e.g. at your
- university. The palette was chosen to give those brushes a nice look
- using them with a monochrom (b/w-dithering) Monitor :-) Just load the
- palette into your paint programme, then load a brush and save it again
- with the new palette. You now only have to change the format of the brush
- into one which is compatible to a Un*x system (e.g. XBM). Don´t worry
- this sound much more complicated and uncomfortable than it really is...
- It even contains some entries, which will (if you are using FVWM) bring
- up the look of such buttons which a MUI-Application would have (The three
- dimensional look is based on SysiHack © by Christoph Feck). Just replace
- the old definitions by the new ones and in a flash you will have your
- familiar look back (of course you will then have to add functions to them
- afterwards). For those of you who want a qick test, they can just try
- mine, they are also included here (ButtonFunctions).
- ***WARNING*** If you don´t know exactely how to handle the .fvwmrc then
- please leave it unchanged, as it should be edited with the same caution
- as you would edit your startup-sequence on your AMIGA!!!
-
- NOTE: Let me know what you think about this AMIGA-X-feeling!
-
- 6. Credits
- -------
- At first I´d like to thank TREVOR MORRIS, as he was the first one who
- sent me a postcard (Look out for his Icon-Archives ´MWBStuff4.lha´
- and ´MWB_DOpus_7.lha´ to get more nice MWB-Icons...)!
-
- Special thanks to ROMAN PATZNER for his Postcard (I am honoured :)
- Well, I don´t have to tell you about his RomIcons, do I? :-)

- help creating both GUIDES :-)

- 7. History
- -------

- NOTE: I am sorry about all those small updates, but I always try to
- improve these icons. And if I am satisfied then there might be
- a major update (containing only new icons, NOT newicons ;). Till
- then I will keep releasing my bugfixes and use the opportunity to
