THE DCTV POST!
Volume 1.0 - [3/13/96]

-INTRODUCTION-
I am uploading the following text files to this area so that the
information contained within can be put to good use. If you are a
programmer who finds this information useful and you wish to create a
program based on the concepts discussed, PLEASE give me
credit within your software program. I would certainly enjoy receiving
a copy of any program you create using these concepts/ideas.
I did NOT include UUencoded files of the image(s) becuase I did NOT want
to upset anyone in this group by uploading large binary files. If you
would like to recieve the ALREADY CONVERTED froggie.dctv image discussed in
Chapter 1, e-mail me and I'll send you the file -or- call the local BBS
I use most often.. "ICON" (702) 646-3631 and download the DCTVpost.lha
archive. (once logged on, enter "F", then "FI" at the files prompt to enter
the search menu). I am not able to upload the images to an FTP site at the
moment, if you can obtain the images (from me or the BBS) and uplaod them
to an FTP site.. it may make it easier for everyone to get to them.
All text/documents and information contained within is (c) copyright
1996 Joey McDonald. You may distribute these documents FREELY via any means
possible as long as you do not charge a fee for the information/documents
and do not alter them in ANY way.
About the author:
I am not a programmer. I'm an "idea" man ;) In other words, most of the
time I don't know what the heck I'm talking about :) BUT, this time I
think I have discovered something of interest (at least to DCTV owners).
I discovered the methods discussed within this text via unorthodox methods
(to say the least). I am offering them as "food for thought" and
"speculation".. hoping that a clever programmer can indeed put these ideas
to use, correcting my mistakes and adding his/her own ideas along the way.
I will update this POST if any software development occurs, or any
new information concerning DCTV is offered.
If you do embark on a software project based on these ideas.. be sure
to e-mail me and I will add the information to these documents.
Enjoy! And please feel free to e-mail me your responses, additions and
corrections. Any technical data/info concerning DCTV would also
be welcome.
