NAME

   DesktopMAGIC - Modular screensaver and system sound manager

VERSION

   in Germany

AUTHORS

   Satoko Watanabe

DESCRIPTION

   DesktopMAGIC saves your screen from phosphor burn-in by
   featuring 32 animated screen saver modules, accompanied by
   sampled sound and 8-track music. Plus, it puts sound into your
   system, Workbench, and even all your already installed
   applications by assigning sounds or voices to windows, keys,
   times, text and virtually all other system events. It gives
   your AMIGA that MAGIC feeling you will never want to miss
   again.

   Main Features:

   - Entertaining screen saver modules, such as "Flying
     Breakfast" or "Aquarium", professionally designed and animated.
   - Useful screens saver modules, such as a clock, a module to
     leave personal memos, or a module for password protection.
   - All modules can be customized by changing numerous parameters,
     and by selecting the accompanying sound and music.
   - Create personal screen saver modules to showcase your IFF graphics
     and ANIM files - your logo, your 3D-scenes, you name it!
   - With the Audio Manager you assign sampled sounds to...
     - any system event such as "Close Window" or "Inserted Disk"
     - any key (specific keys and groups of keys)
     - starting programs when launched from Workbench or CLI
     - any text string, such as "Please insert next disk!"
     - any time (specific times and 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, full hour)
	  Be prepared for a whole new AMIGA feeling - two disks worth
     of sounds and music are included!
   - Comes on 3 disks packed with screen saver modules, sounds,
     music, graphics and animations... diversity for months to come!
   
   DesktopMAGIC is a safe screensaver:

   - Professionally designed in strict accordance to AMIGA system
     and user interface guidelines.
   - Runs flawlessly on all present and future OS revisions, such as
     OS 1.3, OS 2.0 and OS 3.0.
   - Commercially developed and tested (enforcer proof code).
   - All AMIGA graphic cards are supported (Picasso, Piccolo, etc.)
   - Supports IFF sounds, IFF graphics and ANIM 5, 7 and 8 files.
   - Sounds can be kept on disk to save memory.
   - Already thousands of satisfied users in Germany.
   - Runs on Toaster systems.
   - Comprehensive 48-page manual with step-by-step instructions.
   - Easy installation through Commodore Installer
   - Free technical user support through phone, fax, mail or e-mail.

   Now 32 screen saver modules are available:

   - Aquarium (Watch happy fish... and see how they get angled)
   - BlackScreen (the lean screen saver - consumes less memory)
   - Blanctris (relax - and watch the AMIGA play the game)
   - Blanctris_ECS (this version makes full use of the ECS)
   - Checkered Race (a speedy chase to the horizon)
   - Clock (tic-toc-tic-toc... analog or digital, moving or steady) +
   - Cockroaches (La Cocaracha has taken over your Workbench)
   - CrazyWorms (Yummi-Yummi... Workbench tastes GOOD!)
   - Curtain (The creature draws the curtain... have a break!)
   - Eyes (Why are they blinking at you - out of the dark?) +
   - Fireworks (glittering, fading, colored, or all at the same time)
   - Flying Breakfast (a classic - need we say more?)
   - Fractal (OK, not Julia Roberts - but the Julia equations!)
   - FractalDOUB (twice as exact)
   - Life (the famous simulation game)
   - Lightning (we deliver the thunder, too!)
   - Lines (another classic - don't miss it)
   - Meltdown (Quickly! Switch on your workbench windshield wipers!)
   - Messages ("Out to lunch - file is in the drawer - See you!")
   - Mountain (For all you 3D fractal landscape fans out there) +
   - Mower (It was about time for THAT Workbench)
   - MyAnimation (This one's worth more than a million others) +
   - MyPicture (Your logo, your 3D-scene, your painting) +
   - Password (Protects your AMIGA when you're not there) +
   - Plasma (Psyhodelic - use only as directed)
   - Puzzle (Tiles of Workbench surface are shifted around) +
   - Rain (It's raining screen saver modules)
   - Spotlights (Your AMIGA life on stage) +
   - Stars (..to boldly go where no one's gone before...)
   - Stars_ECS (extra smooth on ECS machines)
