 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path.
 It can be found in the WHDLoad package.
 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

 The installed demo requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.3 MB for preload).
 It can be quit by pressing F10 or left mouse button
 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").


 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - Decruncher (MegaCruncher 1.2) relocated to fast memory
 - Memory trashing fixed (bug in bounding box calculation)
 - DMA settings fixed
 - Reset at end of demo patched to quit back to DOS
 - Possibility to quit demo with left mouse button added
 - CPU dependent timing fixed
 - Interrupts fixed
 - Timing fixed
 - NewIcon (created by me)
 - Source code included as usual
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')

 This is another old favorite of mine, a really nice vector demo with
 a great tune and some not too usual objects, it also features
 the first round vector object in an Amiga demo ever. Really nice code!
 I patched the demo this morning when I arrived at work, except for a
 CPU timed delay loop and the usual interrupt problems there wasn't much
 to do. The demo has been crunched with MegaCruncher 1.2 (which is yet
 another ByteKiller clone), I have relocated the decruncher to fast memory
 and optimised the decruncher code. I have also added a check for the left
 mouse button which can be used to quit the demo, that way you don't need
 the keyboard at all. The demo would reset the Amiga at the end, I have
 patched this too of course, the demo will now simply quit back to DOS at
 the end.

 The demo can be downloaded here:
 ftp://ftp.amigascne.org/pub/amiga/Groups/A/Arcane/ARCANE-ThePincCircle


 Enjoy this classic vector demo.
