- Introduction
- ------------
-
- I've written this program as I got a CD with many colour fonts and IFF Fonts
- on it and thought one some so calles "Intros" which are mostly written in
- Assembler and not very system friendly.
-
- This program uses only system functions (for scrolling, blitting and remapping.)
- In the current form, remapping is only done under OS3.x and higher.
- The program should also work on OS2.x but I could not test this.
-
- One example font is included and also an example usage with topaz/11. This
- only works, if you have installed the Font Datatype (can be found on aminet).
-
- I cannot make clear statements on the speed of the program. On my A4000/040
- it is quite a smooth scrolling. At least it should not flicker somehow.
- Also the speed much depends on the size of the font. While topaz/11 is so fast
- that you cannot read it, with the font14 color font it is acceptable.
