NatFrame v1.1b
a Nature production


Description:
This is a winframe replacement for Magic 6.x. It uses textures for the 
different parts of the windows, so it's finally possible to get rid of 
those dull grey windows. NatFrame now supports textures in 16 and 256 
colours as well as 15, 16, 24 and 32bit resolutions, and requires NVDI 
5. NatFrame gives you monochrome windows in less than 16 colour
resolutions.


New things since v1.0b:

* Justification of title bar text is choosable.
* New drawing modes: Horizontally repeat end sections of a 
  texture, the mid part occurs only once. One variant adjusts the mid 
  part after the end of the title bar text, while the other variant 
  simply puts the mid part exactly in the middle.
* Separate text colours for title bar, information bar and icons.


Installation instructions:

1) Rename WINFRAME.SLB and WINFRAME.RSC in the XTENSION-folder 
   (probably under c:\gemsys\magic\xtension) to WINFRAME.SLX and 
   WINFRAME.RSX respectively.

2) Unpack everything to the XTENSION-folder. The contents should be 
   directly in the XTENSION-folder, and not in some NATFRAME-folder. 
   So make sure the extractor doesn't create such a folder for you.

3) Edit WINFRAME.INF, which is in the XTENSION-folder.
   There's a path after "PATH=", which should point to the DAT-file
   to be used by NatFrame (for example in \THEMES\STONE1\). Example:
   PATH=c:\gemsys\magic\xtension\themes\stone1\stone1.dat

4) If you intend to use NatFrame under 16 or 256 colours, run 
   SAVE_PAL.PRG from the XTENSION folder, so that the current palette 
   will be used by NatFrame for rastering the textures before use. 
   Otherwise the textures might be rastered using an incorrect 
   palette, giving you messed up textures. You will have to run the 
   program once under 16 and 256 colours respectively. SAVE_PAL.PRG
   saves the current palette where the currently used theme is, which
   means that you have to run SAVE_PAL.PRG again if you change themes.
   
5) Switch to a 16 or 256 colour mode or a 15, 16, 24 or 32 bit mode.
