The window displays text from a text file on the disk. Usages: TextWin is a quick, convenient way for script writers to display help text on the screen, while their script is running. It can also be used as a general purpose file reader. The window iconifies to the WB screen for instant recall. Distribution: Freeware, copyright 1994 by BOTH Software. AmigaGuide documentation, demonstration scripts, and the source files are included. TextWin was written as an adjunct to MUInt, a program that defines, displays and controls a MUI GUI from a DOS Script. MUInt will be released in December 1994. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- LhA Evaluation V1.38 - Copyright (c) 1991,92 Stefan Boberg. All rights reserved.
