			CaseMaker 1.12

			   by

Users of new audo casettes usually list the contents of the tape
on either an adhesive label attached to the tape or on an insert 
enclosed with the tape.  However, whenever the tape's contents
change, revising its label or insert is a messy job.  Furthermore, the
inserts have little room for writing, forcing the cassette owner to
write in a very small and illegible handwriting.  Fortunately, there
is no more need for labels or pre-packaged inserts: instead, there's
CaseMaker.

CaseMaker allows Windows users to quickly and easily create audio 
cassette inserts.  It allows the user to enter the title of the cassette as 
well as list all of the songs on both sides of the tape.  CaseMaker can 
also save and later retrieve inserts, so there's no need to re-enter a 
tape's entire contents when one item changes.


SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

CaseMaker requires Windows 3.1 or later.  Unlike previous versions,
CaseMaker 1.12 is fully compatible with Windows 95.


USE

Using CaseMaker is very straightforward.  CaseMaker displays four 
rectangles in its window.  To enter the title of the cassette, select 
the Layout Title menu item or double-click in the second rectangle 
in the window.  Enter the title in the edit control containing the 
cursor.  The Alignment group of radio buttons controls whether 
the text will appear right-aligned, left-aligned, or centered.  
Clicking on the Fonts... button brings up a dialog box for selecting 
the font for the cassette title.

Cassette inserts have an inside strip which is often unused.  To place 
text there, select Layout Inside Strip or simply double-click in the 
uppermost rectangle.  This dialog box is identical to the one for 
entering the title, and those instructions apply here.

Songs may be listed on the insert's outside flap, inside flap, or both.  
To enter a list of songs, select the appropriate flap from the Layout 
menu or double-click the mouse in the appropriate rectangle.  Enter 
the songs in the editing fields that appear in the dialog box.  Pushing 
the Fonts... button brings up a dialog box for selecting the font used 
to display the songs.

To avoid entering the same list of songs twice, you can use the Clone!
menu option to copy the song list from one side onto the other side.
Simply click the mouse once in the rectangle that corresponds to the 
song list to copy, then select Clone! from the main menu.

The File menu is used for opening, saving, and printing cassette 
inserts.  I recommend printing with *LOW* quality because it's faster
and the lines are darker.  Once an insert is printed, cut it out and fold
along the appropriate lines.  That's it!


IN CLOSING

Although I retain full copyright over CaseMaker, feel free to copy it for 
friends and distribute it on bulletin boards.

I welcome any and all suggestions, bug reports, etc. about 
CaseMaker.  My Internet address is nieves@mail.med.upenn.edu.  My
home page is http://mail.med.upenn.edu/~nieves.  I'm a medical student and
don't have a whole lot of time to spend enhancing the program, but I'd still
love to hear people's feedback regarding the program.
