WarpSNESLauncher 1.02 - Read Me
-------------------------------


1. What is WSL
--------------
WarpSNESLauncher (WSL for short) is a GUI for the fantastic Amiga version of
SNES9X: WarpSNES by Steffen Haeuser. No doubt the best SNES-emulator for AMIGA/
PPC. Instead of spending your time with shell, writing those terrible long
commandlines you can use this small utility.


2. How to use WSL
-----------------
WSL should be pretty self-explaining. For more info on the effect of the
various buttons please consult the readme of WarpSNES. Clicking the 'Save'
button will cause WSL to save your current settings in S:WSL.cfg. 'Run' will
start WarpSNES. A log file will be placed in T:WSLlog.txt.



3. History of WSL
-----------------

1.02 (31.Aug.98)
----
Frameskip can now be set to 0 (display all frames)
Got rid of the 'Load Snapshot' button; just enter a snapshot to load it
Added a 'HiColor' button to select Hicolor display (transparency)

1.01 (11.Aug.98)
----
First public version

1.00 (xx.Aug.98)
----
Internal version


4. The future of WSL
--------------------
Let's see what Steffen does...


5. Credits for WSL
------------------
WSL is coded in AMOSPro by Rune J. Keller (keller@vip.cybercity.dk). I have
used the great GUI extension by Pietro Ghizzoni (ghizzo@agonet.it). Thanks to
Steffen Haeuser (magicsn@birdland.es.bawue.de) for the great WarpSNES and his
kind help!
