BASE APPLICATION Version 1.0                                September 15, 1991
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a simple, basic TV application that contains several very helpful
routines common to most TV apps I write.  They will likely be helpful to you,
as well.

This is SHAREWARE folks.  For a whopping $10 you'll be entitled to future
versions and other utilities as/if they are written, plus you'll be legally
allowed to use the code!  Gimme a break and send a check if you use it, eh?

The base application contains a hi-res video mode toggle, working help
context skeletons for menubar/statusline, app initialization code that puts
up message boxes if your app-specific requirements are not met, proper
handling of window numbers, tileable/cascadable windows, et al.  See the
source code for more comments.

Special thanks to TeamB member Neil J. Rubenking's book, Turbo Pascal 6.0
Techniques and Utilities, for VERY useful routines and inspiration.

Constructive criticism and suggestions always welcome.
