Watchme is another so-called "pointereyes" program, i.e. two eyes
in a window that always look at your mouse pointer.
The reason I wrote Watchme was that I couldn't find any good program
of this type on Aminet. They either looked bad or were awfully slow
or both.
Features:
---------
-No dirty hack, 100% system compatible, uses system routines only
-100% multitasking friendly
-simple, but looks nice
-fast(!)
-Versions for several types of CPUs:
Watchme_000: For AMIGAs with a 68000 / 68010
Watchme_020: For AMIGAs with a 68020 / 68030
Watchme_020FPU: For AMIGAs with a 68020+FPU / 68030+FPU
Watchme_040FPU: For AMIGAs with a 68040+FPU
Watchme_060FPU: For AMIGAs with a 68060+FPU
-configurable via many options: size, lens size, pubscreen,...
-uses screennotify.library copyright (C) 1995 Stefan Becker, so no
problems when changing the screen mode (WB)
-Adapts to the screen mode: no elliptical eyes when switching e.g.
from Highres interlace to Highres or vice versa
-Works fine with CGFX (I was told so)
History:
--------
v1.0 (9.6.99)
-------------
-first version, released to Aminet
v1.1 (13.6.99)
--------------
-fixed reading from an uninitialized variable which caused an
Enforcer hit. Many thanks to Luca 'Hexaae' Longone for his
SegTracker trace listing!
-some tooltype abbreviations did not work. Fixed.
-some changes in the eyes' drawing routine
-decreased minimum size of window and minimum size of lens if running
on an 1:1 aspect ratio screen. Looks better now.
-new tooltype: NT=NOTITLE/S to switch off the window title
-added NewIcon by Luca 'Hexaae' Longone. Thanks!
