              ------- GENERAL INFORMATION -------


--  This system was designed to significantly reduce the amount of time it 
    takes to produce high resolution graphics.

--  Requirements
    --  128k ram
    --  Color/Graphics Card
              
    NOTE  Generated BASIC programs do not require 128k.

--  Drawings are created interactively on the screen. using function keys.     
 
--  Helpful information is provided on the use of all of the function keys as
    well as the other facilities.

--  Functions are provided to easily add to, modify, and delete portions 
    of your drawings.

--  Drawings may be saved and worked on later.

--  A BASIC language version of a drawing may be generated.  This unusual 
    feature will allow you to actually generate a BASIC program which
    is immediately executable by the BASIC interpreter, and is compileable
    by the BASIC compiler.                                       

    NOTE  These generated programs may be merged with other drawings 
          and your own BASIC code to produce such things as
          slide shows, animation, games, educational programs...etc.

--  This program may be useful (as it was to its author) for introducing 
    youngsters to the computer.

--  Functions provided include:
    --  drawing straight lines
    --  drawing curves (arcs)
    --  drawing circles
    --  drawing individual dots
    --  painting (or filling)
    --  moving all lines (curves, circles, etc.) drawn to a particular point
        to a new point
    --  deleting existing lines, curves, etc.
    --  copying one drawing into another (or any part of a drawing):
        This includes -- shrinking and enlarging
                      -- reversing colors of the copied drawing
                      -- placement of the copy anywhere on the screen
                      -- option to erase background area where the
                         copy will be placed or superimpose lines
    --  aspect finder logic:
        This means circles will really look like circles on your monitor,
        not elipses. 
    --  aspect adjusting:
        This resolves the differences in monitors,
        so what looked like a circle on one monitor will also look like a
        circle to you on your monitor.     
 
             
what looked like a circle on one monitor will also look like a
        circle to y
