Facade(tm) ------------------- developers' pcx splashscreen display for DOS applications Facade(tm) is a simple loader program that allows DOS executable applications to display a developer-designed VGA .pcx file as a sign-on image. Upon normal execution of the main application, Facade(tm) releases itself from memory, thus adding no overhead to the executable sequence. The splashscreen displays for four seconds, then calls the main executable just as it would have been executed from the system prompt. Facade(tm) may be used with most traditional MS-DOS language executables, including those created with CA-Clipper, Borland Turbo Pascal, QuickBASIC, PowerBasic, Visual Basic(tm) for DOS, dBase, Clarion, C, etc. Unlike other programs of this type, Facade(tm) may actually work well in professional development environments. Facade(tm) image displays will run under both DOS and Windows. The utility is particularly effective for software developers preparing copyright or other splashscreens of their products, in that they can easily capture usable materials with programs like Hijaak(tm) for Windows and modify or create them in editing programs such as Windows(tm) Paintbrush. Sample files and on-disk documentation are included. The full registration fee is only $14.95 (single-user system). Program Requirements --------------------- The requirements for running Facade(tm) include a DOS-compatible PC with 512k memory, VGA graphics capability, and a hard drive. DOS 3.1 (or later) or Windows 3.x (or later) should be utilized. Developed by: RCCO Research 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� � RCCO Research Associates � � Technical Publishers, Est. 1965 � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴�
