[VERSION]

  MONO.SCR          2.01.000

[INTRODUCTION]

This is a screensaver for Windows 95/98/NT 4.0+.  It's a recreation of the
first (and only) m0n0 intro that came out on the Amiga in April '96.

[CONTENTS]

The archive should contain these files:

  MONO.SCR
  README.TXT (this file)
  M0N0\DESOTO.211
  M0N0\DHARMA-TSHIRT.211
  M0N0\FNDR.211
  M0N0\RAMONE.211
  M0N0\RELIEF-BLOK.211
  M0N0\RELIEF-EYE.211
  M0N0\RELIEF.211
  M0N0\SUBI.211
  M0N0\SUMALETH.211
  
[INSTALLATION]

Unpack the archive to your WINDOWS directory (whatever it's name is) RESTORING
PATHNAMES.  Next, bring up the Display Propeties/Screen Saver box (do I really
need to explain this?) (yes, you do) (oh all RIGHT) and select "mono" from the
list of screensavers.

The screensaver also requires that DirectX 6 is installed.  Well, I USED
version 6, but it's probably work with any version from 3.  NT 4.0 and
up includes DirectX 3, so all should be fine in the state of 211 there...

[INSTRUCTIONS]

Clicking on the Settings button in the Display Propeties/Screen Saver box will
bring up the Configuration dialog.

  Graphics Path     Here you can enter the path of the graphics (the .211
                    files).  It defaults to [WINDIR]\m0n0, which is where
                    they'll be if you followed the installation instructions.
                    There is now also a browse button by popular request...

  Show logos        Toggles the showing of the logos.  If you have a VERY
                    slow system this will considerably speed up the word
                    fading.  (!)

  Show Second Word  Toggles the showing of a second word (it'll make sense
                    when you've seen the screensaver in action) and you can
                    also set the frequency of its appearances.

  Blur              This will cause the words to be faded out with a blur,
                    rather than just vanishing slowly.  The value is the
                    distance the blur will reach before disappearing.

If you don't like a particular logo then just remove its .211 file from the
graphics directory.  Likewise, you will be able to add more logos by placing
them in that directory.  I MAY get around to releasing the BMPTO211 converter,
I may not... ;)

[KNOWN PROBLEMS/BUGS]

No ACTUAL bugs, but the preview screen will have the wrong palette in 8-bit.
I didn't really bother with this as the webtracker on our homepage shows
that most of you run Windows in 800*600*16 (personally I run in
1200*1024*16 ;).

If the saver is running VERY slowly, then the most likely cause is too high
a resolution.  Data can only go across to your graphics card at a fixed
bus rate.  Disabling the logos won't be much good in this case as that isn't
the slow bit.  Remember the saver runs in the same resolution as you run
Windows in, not 640*480 like Quake II!
