 1. Introduction

 Captain   Memo   is   freeware,   this  means you may use it, you may copy it
 under the following conditions:
    Don't charge any money for it.
    Only distribute the complete package, without any files missing.
    Don't modify the files in any way.
    If  you  include  this program on a CD-ROM, please send me a free copy of
     that CD-ROM.
 If  you  want  to tell me how fantastic Captain Memo is ;-) or just have some
 comments send me e-mail:
                           M.Nosarzewski@bigfoot.com
 This is a special edition for Queen fans (I'm one of them). Most of card sets
 (MGS  files)  contain  Queen  pictures. There are also other sets, I can send
 them by e-mail if you wish.

 2. System requirements

    80286 or better processor
    MS DOS or compatible
    mouse
    VESA compatible SVGA graphic card with at least 512 kB memory
    2 MB free HD space
    310 kB free main memory
    Sound Blaster or compatible card (optional)

 Sound  won't  work  in  DOS  window  under  Windows 95/98/NT! You have to use
 "Previous DOS version" or "Command line only". Those options may have another
 names, because I've got Polish edition of Windows 95.
 If  the program hangs up or if you use it under Windows you should try to use
 parameter NOSOUND. This helps sometimes.
 I'm  sorry  but  I  don't  have enough time to completely finish this program.
 That's  why  sound  card  must use IRQ7 and DMA1. In other case sound must be
 disabled  (see  above). If I get many mails from people, who want to hear the
 sound, I will write a patch.

 3. Captain Memo package

 Captain Memo package consist of the following files:

    CAPTMEMO.EXE - executable file
    CAPTMEMO.DAT - data file
    README.TXT   - game description, which you're reading at the moment
    FILE_ID.DIZ  - short description

 and MGS files, without them Captain Memo is worthless.

 MGS files included in this version of Captain Memo:

    QUEEN.MGS    - photos of Queen, from http://queen-fip.com.
    QUEEN2.MGS   - other Queen photos
    RECORDS.MGS  - pictures of most of Queen records
    PORSCHE.MGS  - photos of Porsche 911 Carrera from Need For Speed
    DISCWLD.MGS  - pictures from Discworld

 Other sets (not included, but available via e-mail)

    PIGLET.MGS   - pictures of Piglet from "Winnie The Pooh"
    IMPRESSI.MGS - the most famous impressionistic paintings
    MOTO.MGS     - moto bikes (really hard one!)
    MODELS.MGS   - the most famous models and actress
    QUAKE.MGS    - screens from Quake and Quake II

 If you want to have a set with your pictures, please contact with me.

 4. Game rules

 The game is a computer version of "Memory" card game. The goal is to find all
 the  pairs  of  identical  pictures. You select one of the cards and then the
 second  one. If the pictures are identical, they are removed from the screen,
 in  the  other case after a while they are turned upside down again. The game
 ends when there are no unmatched pairs.

 5. Technical information

 I've written this game in Borland Pascal 7.0, source file contains about 1000
 lines. Most of the work was done in September 1998.

 If  you've  got  any comments, bug reports or want to have your own card set,
 you can contact me:

 I'm  sorry for all the mistakes in this text. My English is still not as good
 as  I  want.  It's  not  my mother tongue after all. But please, feel free to
 correct my mistakes. I'd like to learn some more.
