NOTE:
	In order to create this archive I had to shorten several names.
After dearcing (using ARC023), rename cx.lib to commodities.library.

	Willy.

	README	Release 0.4, April 7, 1987

Release 0.4
	Found (the) bug(s) with the Sender objects.  The messages they
	sent were often corrupt.  I haven't been able to crash IHelp
	since I fixed this.  Special thanks to Meridian Software for
	an example program which reproduced the problem.

	No other changes.  Busy on other stuff.


Release 0.3
	SPECIAL NOTE: added after Badge distribution

	Without a doubt, using IHelp to cycle windows real fast can cause
	a crash.  I think this is an Intuition bug (therefore, still my
	fault).  I am interested in knowing if Commodities crashes on
	its own.

	NEW THIS RELEASE:

	See the descriptions of ParseIX(), InvertKeyMap(), InvertString(),
	and AddIEvents() in the manual and function description document.
	The first is greatly changed (AND THE RETURN VALUE FOR SUCCESS HAS
	BEEN CHANGED!) and the others are new.  The program test.c illus-
	trates the power of these new functions, although I haven't had
	time to create the really killer demo.

	I also broke out the documentation in "functions" on the ArgArray
	functions.  It is still wise to read the source in the "cxsupp"
	directory.

	The library version is bumped to '3.'  You can now open the
	library successfully asking for a version from 0 to 3, inclusive.

	FROM LAST RELEASE:

	This is the first or second distribution of Commodities Exchange, a
	programming utility and standard.  Please read everything in the 'doc'
	subdirectory, starting with the Manual, which contains a copyright
	statement.

	All source to everything is included.  The source for the library
	is for reference only, and is not meant to be recompiled, in the
	same or altered form.  There isn't a promise to continue to provide
	source to the library with future releases.

	I haven't actually compiled the examples and support routines from
	the release disk, but all the files you need are on the disk
	somewhere.

	The release consists of:
	-one Amiga Exec library, commodities.library, Version 2.
	-three example applications, IHelp, NoCapsLock, AutoPoint2.
	-a scanned library of support and interface functions
	-several documents: a manual, its outline, a function reference
	 guide, and its summary.
	-a tools library with some necessary and some bonus functions.
	-source for everything (Aztec-C small model, small integer)

	To start the applications, you run them from the CLI, since
	there is no way yet to kill them if started from the Workbench.
	Parameter and environment passing to these applications are
	covered in the Manual.

	Please forward all comments to me.  Thanks, and I hope the 
	initial agony of dealing with the early releases is minimal.
