***************************************************************************** * The Jock Clock * * Copyright 1995 - Gavin Lawrence * * * * Version 2.1 (for Psion S3A) * * * ***************************************************************************** WHAT DOES IT DO? The Jock Clock allows broadcasters, technical operators, studio managers, disc-jockeys and hospital radio presenters to work out timings of discs / tapes / commercials in order to hit the news jingle, pips, or other programme junction on time. NB: This SHAREWARE version of The Jock Clock, calculates to a news jingle that is 13 seconds long. When you register the programme, you simply state the duration of your own news jingle which will be incorporated into your own copy of the programme. Also, the "calculate to junction" function is only available in the registered version. COMPATABILITY: The Jock Clock has been written specifically for the Psion S3A and WILL NOT WORK on the older Psion 2 or Psion 3 models. However, The Jock Clock will work on the excellent PC Emulator (S3AEMUL) available from all good bulletin boards! INSTALLATION: Presumably, you have already un-zipped the two files README.TXT (this one) and JOCK.OPA, so all you need to do is copy JOCK.OPA to the \APP directory on your Psion S3A. Then install JOCK.OPA as an application in the normal way If installing onto the PC emulator, copy JOCK.OPA into an \APP sub-directory of your main emulator files. OPERATION: Dialog boxes and nag screens are cleared by pressing the ENTER or RETURN key. Press the MENU key for the various programme options, which will give you the hot-keys to use, once you are more familiar with the programme. FEEDBACK: Comments are most welcome and should be sent to the registration address. If there is enough interest, I will consider re-coding the programme for other machines; and a stand-alone PC version. I would be particularly interested to hear from people who would find a time calculator of use as I am already working on this project for both PC and Psion S3As and could be persuaded to integrate all programmes into one single package. REGISTRATION: For only five uk pounds, you will receive a personal copy of The Jock Clock, which has the duration of your own news jingle pre-programmed. Also, you will be able to use the "calculate to junction" function and the built-in delays in this version of the programme are not present. To register, send five uk pounds and the duration of your news jingle to:- Gavin Lawrence 14 Spenlow Drive TUNBURY WOODS Walderslade Kent ME5 9JT (sorry, credit cards not accepted!) THANKS: Thanks to Pete Sipple for his Psion 3 programme, BackTIMe, which gave me the inspiration to complete this updated and enhanced Psion S3A version. ******************************************************************** * The Jock Clock, programme and documentation is Copyrighted 1995, * * Gavin Lawrence. * ********************************************************************
