How to use:
First you have to open EditPat. If you do this, you can enter a name of a file, where your patterns should be stored to. If there is an old file whith this name that contents patterns, this will be opened. To force an action to the file, you could use the popup-menus or you have to mark the viewer.
To create a new pattern, it must be opened. A new pattern needs width and height. EditPat.New h w will open a patterns with width w and height. At the beginning the Draw-Mode is activ. A click to the grid with the left mousebutton (LMB) will set a pixel in the current color. EditPat.ChangeColor n changes the current color to color number n. The right mouse button (RMB) will set a pixel in backround color. Now you are able to draw your own patterns and to store them to disk with EditPat.Store . A ! in the titlebar shows, if there was a change since the last storeing.
