#***********************************************************
#     Due to a bug in our formatting routines, the menu
#program is unable to Prepare a disk directly from files on
#the back side of your START disk.  In order to access these
#files, you must follow these special instructions:
# 1) Format a single-sided disk for backup.
# 2) Click on the "Backup START Disk" button.
# 3) Select the option to back up Side 2 of your START disk.
# 4) Click on Backup.
#     This will put the contents of Side 2 of your START
#disk onto one single-sided disk.  Next, use the "Prepare
#Disk" button and select the file you wish to use, for
#example, SpinWheel.  The program will prompt you to
#insert your Side 2 disk into Drive A.
#     Because of these special instructions the option to
#back up both sides of your disk onto one double-sided disk
#is not available this issue.

# Features on Side 1 of your START disk this month:
#
# CAD-3D VERSION 1.0                           by Tom Hudson
#  Computer Aided Design is used by architects and engineers
#  to quickly and easily build life-like drawings of their
#  products.  Dedicated systems sell for tens of thousands
#  of dollars, but here is a powerful package for the price
#  of your START Disk.  CAD3D.PRG runs in medium or high
#  resolution; CAD3D.RSC must be in the same folder.  Four
#  sample files are included: ANTIC.3D, BLOCK.3D, FAUCET.3D
#  and START.3D.  READ_ME.TXT explains how to view them to
#  best advantage.
#
# CAD-3D ANIMATOR                              by Tom Hudson
#  This companion to our feature program allows you to see
#  your 3D creations in motion!  ANIMATE.PRG runs in medium
#  and high resolution; ANIMATE.RSC must be in the same
#  folder.  A high and a medium example (SCENE.HI and
#  SCENE.LO respectively) are included.
#
# COLLEGE SPREADSHEETS                     by Christoph Herd
#  Use this LDW Power Spreadsheet template to calculate your
#  investment strategy to finance your children's education.
#  You need the LDW Power Spreadsheet program to use the
#  template, which is in the file COLLEGE.LDW.
#
# GFA BASIC WIPES & DISSOLVES               by Carlos Tirado
#  These GFA BASIC 2.0 routines will give your programs the
#  slick look of a professional effects package.  Just like
#  the movies, cut to the next scene by unrolling a frame,
#  or closing an iris, or sliding in a frame from the side.
#  The actual code for wipes and dissolves is in WIPES.LST.
#  We've included a demo and its code, SUSLSHOW.PRG and
#  SUSLSHOW.LST respectively.  The five picture files are
#  for use in the demo and must be in the same folder as
#  the demo.  Runs in all resolutions.
#
# MOUNTAIN SOLITAIRE                   by Michael C. Gilbert
#  We present a special game this month, by Cinko author
#  Michael C. Gilbert.  Mountain Solitaire is a devilishly
#  difficult card game; none of the START editors has scored
#  the maximum points, nor can consistently reach the top of
#  the mountain.  MOUNTAIN.PRG runs in medium resolution;
#  the files DECK1.PI2, DECK2.PI2 and MOUNTAIN.RSC must be
#  in the same folder as the program.
#
# SPINWHEEL                     by Ian Lepore and Pete Ewing
#  This program probably reminds you of a favorite childhood
#  game, which shall remain nameless.  Well, what can be
#  done on paper can be done better on the ST.  Play with
#  SPINWEEL.PRG and prove it for yourself.  Runs in any
#  resolution; requires that SPINWEEL.RSC be in the same
#  folder.

# On Side 2 of your START disk this month:
#
# CLIP-ART SAMPLER                        by various artists
#  Here are 10 pieces of clip art to illustrate the clip-art
#  review by Dan Fruchey.  These are usually incorporated
#  into a publication, but for those of you who don't have
#  the necessary desktop publishing packages, five have
#  been translated into DEGAS format (.PI3).  There are also
#  two bit-mapped files (.IMG) and three metafiles (.GEM).
#  READ_ME.TXT explains in more detail.
#
# MOUNTAIN SOLITAIRE SOURCE CODE       by Michael C. Gilbert
#  If you want a lesson on how to write your own slick card
#  game, or if you want to customize this one, then the
#  source to this month's game feature is what you need.
#  Written in Laser C version 1.0; files MOUNTAIN.C and
#  MOUNTAIN.H.
#
# MYSTIC REALM SOURCE CODE                     by John Lince
#  We sort of (blush) forgot the source code in January when
#  we published this game.  We produced January's issue in
#  the middle of October, so it's the earthquake's fault.
#  Mystic Realm was written in GFA BASIC 2.0.
#
# SOPWITH CAMEL DEMO                          by Dave Stuart
#  Anyone who regularly reads the "Peanuts" comic strip
#  knows this plane!  The airworthy (versus doghouse)
#  version of it is available on Antic Software's Vintage
#  Aircraft Design Disk.  This is a high rez demo of that
#  object.  It runs under ANIMATE3.PRG, which requires that
#  SCAMEL_H.DLT and the picture file SCAMEL_H.PI3 be in the
#  same folder.  READ_ME.TXT gives more details.
#
# SPINWHEEL SOURCE CODE         by Ian Lepore and Pete Ewing
#  The C language is infiltrating the Atari community.  Here
#  at START we're seeing more submissions written in this
#  powerful, high-level language, originally developed for
#  UNIX computers.  We recommend the source to SpinWheel
#  written in Sozobon C, which demonstrates some of the
#  best features of the language.  Seventeen files total:
#  five header files (.H), eight C source files (.C), one
#  assembler file (.S), and three compilation files
#  (SPINWEEL.LNK, SPINWEEL.MAK and SPINWEEL.RSD).
#
# X-10 CONTROLLER UPDATE                  by Howard MacOdrum
#  A high rez version of this household appliance control
#  software was run last month.  MacOdrum was kind enough
#  to write a medium rez version, which we offer here.  Not
#  all the necessary files are included; this GFA BASIC 3.0
#  program requires the run-only BASIC interpreter included
#  with the high rez version in the February 1990 issue.
#  All files (DARKROOM.DFN, DARKROOM.GFA and DARKROOM.RSC)
#  should be in the same directory.  READ_ME.TXT explains
#  in more detail.
