- This program is called TCDRAW and was written in Borland's Turbo
- C 2.0 utilizing the Borland BGI Graphics Library. It was written
- by Peter Ibbotson who works for Borland UK's Technical Support
- Dept. He's not sure how the source code will me made available
- at this time, but can be reached at 76530,766
- =========================================================================
- TCDRAW V0.19
-
- The file manager has now been added. It is incomplete in that you can
- not at present enter new filenames or directories/paths (you can however
- move around the disk using the mouse). This will be fixed in the next
- release. The effect of this is that you should create a few files in
- your directory named pic1.tcd, pic2.tcd . . . to allow saving and loading
- of files.

- TCDRAW V0.14
-
- I think have fixed (most of the bugs) in floodfill.
-
- Note that flood fill is now done in a two pass style first by
- filling in the main area in a solid color on the second pass by
- using a pattern
-
- You can not fill an area in the same color as the pixel which the
- mouse is pointing too. This means that you cannot fill a white
- area with a white and black pattern for example. This is only a
- problem on monochrome systems where a two pass fill is
- recommended.
-
- There appears to be a bug when filling an area in the same
- pattern and color as before when the area does not have vertical
- but jagged edges. I have only seen this once so I may be wrong.
-
- If the fill seems to be taking too long simply press the keyboard
- and this should abort the fill. Do not rely on this feature in
- future versions it is only there to get you out of trouble.

- Compiling
- ---------
-
- All of the source code is contained in the file TCDRWSRC.ARC.
- unpack this into a subdirectory on it's own.
- READ the makefile you'll need to change some of the constants in there
- and compile down the C code to addrsp.exe and place this in your path
