COPYCATS: - - - - - * "CopyCats" works in all ST and TT resolutions. "CopyCats" is really quite easy to use, so I won't go into the lurid details... * CopyCats runs as either an accessory OR a program, depending on where you put it and how you name it. * At the top of the panel is the copyright box. You can "grab" CopyCats by this box and drag it about the screen. * Below this are the boxes you will try to mimic. * You can click on the NAMES "Speed", "Repeat" and "Response" for a short description of the function... SPEED: How quickly the program selects boxes. REPEAT: How many boxes you will need to mimic to win. If you select 50, then you will need to repeat a sequence of 50 boxes. RESPONSE: How quickly the box redraws after you click on it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTE: Holding down the [CONTROL] key while clicking on a "repeat" arrow increases the speed of the scroll. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - * Clicking on START begins the game. Selecting an incorrect box ends the game. Clicking on QUIT exits the program. * Clicking on the "parent" box centers CopyCats on the screen, unless its a resident DA, in which case it returns to its previous QUIT position. * If a file named COPYCATS.CUR is present in the SAME directory as COPYCATS.PRG(ACC), CopyCats will load a User Defined mouse .CURsor. Users can create their OWN custom mice using UncleMouse V.1.0a or newer (available most everywhere) ! BTW: The CURsor file supplied is of the standard GEM arrow. If you change the last letter of the file to "X" you can disable it and see that it REALLY does work ! * That's It ! Have fun... CREDITS - - - - Thanks to Larry D. Duke for TT compatibility FormDoIt!
