LAMPWordsX - Important Notes ============================ NOTE: This is version "X" of LAMPWords ("ex", not 10), called LAMPWordsX in a few places. It has been designated as such because it is a special cleanup version. LAMPWords is a program for Palm-compatible handheld devices whose function is to anagram and look up words. (Hence the name: LAMP and PALM are anagrams.) It was created for use by Scrabble(r) players but it has other uses as well. The dictionary is updatable. LAMPWords should run on any handheld device using Palm OS 2.0 or greater, but Palm OS 3.0 or higher is recommended. Memory requirements depend on the dictionary size. The program itself is very small, so the memory consumed depends on how many words you want to store and how much of your handheld's memory you want to fill up. See the web site for details. NOTE: You MUST download a dictionary file from the LAMPWords web site! The program won't run without one! LAMPWords can be installed using the normal install facilities for your handheld device. For Palm devices on Windows, open the Palm Desktop's Install Tool, select "Add", then find and select both the "LAMPWordsX.PRC" file and the "LAMPWordsDB.PDB" (or other dictionary database) file. Then click Done, and do a HotSync to install the software. (It may take a few minutes for the database to be downloaded into your handheld.) This version of LAMPWords is distributed under the GNU General Public Licence. See the file "COPYING" for licence information. The source code for the program is available from the web site. It requires Palm OS SDK 4.0 and PRCTools 2.0 or higher to compile. ***** INSTRUCTIONS ***** NEW USERS: Full installation and usage instructions are contained in the file called "manual.txt". There is also some limited help available from within the program itself if you need a reminder. UPGRADING: Users of LAMPWords 1.1 or 1.0 do not need to download a new dictionary. Simply install the program file. For a list of changes, see the file called "HISTORY". WEB SITE: http://members.shaw.ca/lampwords/ -- End of file: README --
