### bptb-1.0 README file

    Sun Jul 27 17:54:24  1997

    This is bptb, Basilisk's Practical ToolBar (or at least, hopefully practical).

    It features multiple shells (finally got it to work properly!), and pixmaps
    using libXpm. It also needs Motif 1.2 to run. If you want to compile with
    Motif 2.0, you'll probably need to add libXext to the link line in the
    Makefile (LIBS=-lXm -lXt -lX11 -lXpm -lXext). At least I had to, to make it
    link properly.

    Each one of the shells can have a different decoration, so that you can
    make one shell without any decorations at all and another one that only
    has a dragbar (titlebar, whatever), etc. etc... This can be done by means
    of the .Xdefaults or .Xresources (or whatever you use).

    Usage: betbutt datafile

    The datafile can have any name you want. The program currently does not
    support toolkit options (don't use XtInitialize() anymore). It will
    probably not support these options in the future either.

    I've now included an extra shell. This window controls the multiple shells,
    when multiple shells are available. It is called "control shell in this"
    README.

    The control shell has a red button to quit, a green one to pop up all
    toolbars, a blue one to hide all buttonbars, and an additional number of
    grey buttons (equal to the number of toolbars). These grey buttons are
    a bit longer (twice to be precise) and can be used to pop up toolbars
    selectively. Try it and you'll know what I mean. Check the .bptb file
    in this distribution. It'll clear things up as well.

    Check the TODO! Note the date on the 1.0 beta entry:
    It's Sun Aug  3 21:48:28  1997.
    Note the date above this entry:
    It's Mon Aug  4 01:02:39  1997.

    This entry here is to tell that this version (1.0 beta) is more stable than
    I expected. I left the computer running while having a beer a couple of miles
    from home... I'm back now, and the toolbar is still running. OK, it hasn't
    been used much, I admit, but in those 3 hours I was gone, bptb kept running
    and, most important of all, xclock and xload didn't complain! Yeah!

    Signing off!
