User's Manual Complete with screenshots

I am very please to announce the release of 1000 Silly Things for Apple 
ProDOS 8 written in Aztec C. This may not be the final release because Mr. T 
will need to verify that the FRENCH translation is done properly. You will 
likely note that this has been rebranded and is no longer attached to one 
kid. This has not improved the program but makes it more fit to share. The 
bilingual features are the improvement and T claims that the ProDOS version 
runs quicker and I fear he is right. The run-length graphics really seem to 
load quickly. Amazing!

I will also be trying to squeeze a French Language User's Manual from Mr. T 
but he has young kids and I promnise to be gentle and provide him with a 
French Draft for him to edit if he concedes to this at all. In the meantime 
enjoy the program. You too T! I hadn't planned on getting this up for 
download so quickly but as the other T on the Sopranos says (unquote) "Just 
when I think I'm out, they pull me back in!"

Some Brief Notes Follow for your spell checker. Despite the fact that I got 
off my butt and finally documented this in detail:

Program Description

Children's Play Activity

"1000 Silly Things" is a bilingual play activity for children from 1-100. It 
runs in either English or French and language can be changed "on the fly" 
during game play.

This program is based on "The Mixed-Up Toy game" from Broderbund's PlayRoom 
program. "Three different sections of the body--the head, torso, and legs 
spin around and its up to the kids to change the body parts to match the 
cartoon characters..."

It also offers a BSAVE option to save the Silly Things.
