- Typing Arcade:
-
- ========================================================================
- This program is (C) Copyright 1992 Jim Patterson.
- German version (C) Copyright 1994 by Stephan Wacker.
-
- This version contains a German interface as well as the English original.
- They are selected according to your Language Preferences.
-
- The German interface is adapted to an old black German keyboard with
- a slight modifiction: The key next to the backspace key should return
- single quotes instead of accents.
-
- If your keyboard is diferent you should look into the Arcade.nib and
- Localizable.strings file in the appropriate .lproj folder.
-
- Most (I dare not say `all' :) changes in the code are marked with my
- initials `SW'.
-
- Distributed with kind permission of the author (see below).
- Send all bug reports to me and don't bother Jim Patterson or
- Laurent Amon.

- ========================================================================
- THE ORIGINAL README:
-
- Arcade is a small typing tutor in the form of an arcade game. Letters are
- falling, and you can destroy them before they hit the bottom by typing the
- correct key. You can choose the set of keys you want to play with (home
- keys, letters only, whole keyboard,...).
-
- Since I have received a good number of requests for it on the Usenet,
- here it is. Though I am not the author, I have the author's permission
- to distribute it.
-
- I'm distributing this for Jim Patterson, who wrote it as a class project.
- Jim is only infrequently on the net, so this program is delivered 'as is',
- without any guarantees (insert legalese).
-
- This program is (C) Copyright 1992 Jim Patterson. It can be distributed
- freely as long as the source and all files are included in this distribution.
- You can modify and transform this program as long as you distribute freely
- the modified code, under the same conditions and that the name of the author
- remains on all files present in the original distribution. This code is not
- to be used for commercial applications without the author's express consent.
- (Insert more legalese, that's not my forte).
-
- Finally, nobody's maintaining this program, so if you want to do it, you're
- welcome.

- Now let's hear a few words from Jim:
-
- It's late, and I'm tired, and instructions are online (under
- INFO...INSTRUCTIONS from the main menu), so try it out and I hope you like it.
-
- By the way, loading the program and starting a new game take some time, so be
- patient.
