The Buddy System For Imagine 2.0

                             03-12-92 Release

(please read the "Getting Started" topic, from within the Buddy System for
more details on all the new functions.)

Here's some features of the new interface:

·    Draggable and Sizeable text and index windows
·    Button Gadgets for the Search and Move functions
·    Improved Searching - The text is now positioned at matching hypertext
     links and all matches are highlighted for visibility.
·    You can now activate the Search function (Spacebar) without a text
     window active
·    Keyboard equivalents for all functions
·    The Index is positioned at the closest match if an exact one is not
     found
·    A new Global Search function. This allows you to search all text
     files for a particular word or phrase. (CTRL & Spacebar)
·    You can print the current text by pressing the PrtSc key (the * key
     on the numeric pad of A500, A2x00s & A3x00s; or just press the 
     regular * key)

                              DEMONSTRATIONS

·    A requester appears before proceeding with a demonstration. 
     Additionally, a requester appears to ask if you want to perform the
     Initialization sequence before the actual demonstration.

     -You do not have to perform the initialization sequence if you are 
      in the correct editor for a particular demonstration (i.e. you are
      in the detail editor & have selected the Extrude demo), AND if the
      editor interface is in its default state. That is, the grid spacing
      is set to 20 units, Magnification = 1, all three views are centered
      at the origin (0,0,0), etc.

     Bypassing the initialization essentially lets you get directly to
     a demonstration, without delay.

     If a demonstration appears to be malfunctioning, abort it with the
     ESC and restart it - this time with an initialization sequence.

·    WARNING: DO NOT MODIFY The Imagine.config file in the Buddy System
              drawer. Certain settings are required for the demonstrations
              to run correctly.

·    WARNING: Certain Public Domain Screen Blankers & Mouse Accelerators
              may conflict with the Buddy System's demonstrations due to
              the nature of the playback process. Demonstrations are
              pre-recorded mouse & keyboard sequences that can be thrown
              off by programs that affect mouse movement. So, to make
              sure the demonstrations play correctly, disable any mouse
              acceleration. A3000 owners should not have the acceleration
              feature activated in their Input Preferences. Also, Make
              sure Mouse Speed = 1.
