Short: Fast system-friendly "pointereyes" Author: Gerri@studbox.uni-stuttgart.de (Gerald Schnabel) Uploader: Gerri studbox uni-stuttgart de (Gerald Schnabel) Type: game/gag Version: 1.1 Requires: OS 2.04+, Fastmem, util/libs/ScreenNotify10.library Architecture: m68k-amigaos 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!
