-
- This file contains a brief description of ICAO Version 0.60b
- for NeXTSTEP, which has been released in January 1994.
- It is the NeXTSTEP Version of the well known ICAO for X11/Motif.
-
- ICAO is an interactive program running under NeXTSTEP. Its
- input is a so called "icaomap file", which is an ASCII file
- containing descriptions of objects such as airports, roads,
- towns, radio beacons and the like. ICAO will use either
- Lambert or Mercator projection to generate a map from this
- icaomap file.
-
- ICAO allows you to interactively work with the map on the
- screen, i.e. scroll it, use a rubber line to measure distances
- and tracks etc. Additional features are available for both
- motorized flights and soaring.
-
- Version 0.60b (the 'b' meaning beta) is the first version
- that is released. Though ICAO is copyrighted software,
- it may be copied and used free of charge. See the
- licencing information in the ICAO manual that is distributed
- with ICAO.

- FTP servers:

- ICAO.0.6b.N.bd.compressed:
- ICAO.0.6b.NI.bd.compressed:
- These are compressed executables for NSfIP(=I), black hardware(=N)
- and both(=NI). They contain a binary(=b) and some data(=d) for ICAO.
- This is an icaomapfile of Germany and a manual.
-
- * ICAO.0.6b.s.compressed:
- This is the source code Version of ICAO for NeXTSTEP. It contains
- everything you need to successfully compile and run ICAO. Feel free
- to use this Version and enhance the program.

- ANNOTATIONS
- ******************************************************
-
- There is a bug in the PrefController class as well as
- in the Preferences nib file.
-
- If you click the Set... button in the Preferences
- panel, ICAO.app will crash. You can avoid this by
- typing in a shell (Terminal.app New Shell):
-
- dwrite Icao "Default Mapfile" "/foo.imf"
-
- It doesn't matter if or if not /foo.imf exists.
- This is just a workaround. Now the steps described
- in the manual should work!
-
-
-
- If you want to compile ICAO.app, you need GNU's flex.
- The NeXT lex will not work with ICAO's scanner.l file.
