INTRODUCTION Time Table is a neat utility to help you keep track of your classes. It was designed with the university in mind but can be adapted to suit your needs. It displays the current period in real time and also displays how much time there is left before the certain period starts or ends, depending on it's current status. This version should work on all Psion 3a's. It should also work on the 3c and Sienna but this has not yet been confirmed. If you use a Psion other than the 3a, the only way to be sure is to upload and test it. The only major drawback of the current version of Time Table is that you are limited to a maximum of 11 periods per day. If this is a problem, please contact me. I am planning version 2 which should solve this problem. If you have any other suggestions for features you would like included in version 2, feel free to contact me (address below). Time Table 1.6 can import files created by earlier versions, but will save them out as version 1.6 files. Full information about using Time Table is available via the the built-in help system. Thank you for getting the new version of Time Table. 2. INSTALLATION You will need a 3-Link, Mac-Link or A-Link and an approriate desktop computer to install Time Table. a) Extract all the files from this archive. b) Copy all the necessary files onto your Psion (see below). c) Install it in the usual way (Psion-I). Root: ÚÄ> /APP ³Ä> TABLE.OPA (The application) ³ ÃÄ> /TABLE ÚÄ> TABLE.RSC (The help file) ³ ÃÄ> TABLE.PIC (Bitmaps used by Table) ³ ³ ³ ÀÄ> /TABLES ÚÄ> PETER.TBL (An example) ³ For the safest installaion, do the following: þ Copy the TABLE.OPA into your /APP directory. þ Create a new directory called TABLE in your root directory. þ Copy TABLE.PIC into /TABLE. þ If you would like the help function, copy TABLE.RSC into /TABLE You may store your *.TBL files wherever you want to. For the best results, though, create a directory called TABLES inside the /TABLE directory (i.e. /TABLE/TABLES) and store your *.TBL files there. A demonstration file is included and is called DEMO.TBL. IMPORTANT: Copy all the files to your internal drive. Time Table creates three more files, TABLE.REG, TABLE.SET and TABLE.DAT. Some of the files are continually updated and for that reason they must all be on a Ramdisc. I hate it when one installs an application and it starts creating all sorts of data files wherever it wants to! 3. SHAREWARE Time Table version 1.6 is shareware. None of the features of the unregistered version have been disabled. The only addition is the nag screen which is displayed every now and then. This screen will be visible for at least 10 seconds after which you may continue by pressing any key. If you use Time Table for more than 3 weeks, you must register. To register, please send your full details together with 10 UKP, or an equivalent amount, to me and I'll send you your unique registration code. If you have any queries about how you should pay, please contact me. There is no need to re-install your copy! Just press Psion-G, or select "Register" from the menu, type in your name and unique registration code and the nag screen will be removed. But, please register! By registering, you will convince poor programmers like me to continue writing good software for your favourite palmtop companion. 4. AUTHOR AND ADDRESS Time Table 1.6 was developed by Peter E.
