Unquote V1.5 (C)1992-1997 AKUA interactive media AG by Gregory Lemperle-Kerr Unquote displays a quote chosen from many thousands at startup. There is nothing to configure (unless you want to use ResEdit - see below), so just toss it on your system folder and see something useful during that startup delay - not to say that startup screens can not be tasty. If you can use ResEdit, here are some tips: There are ca. 1000 German quotes you may want to remove if you don't speak the Kraut language - most of you probably don't. To do so, just remove the "STR#" resources whose names begin with "D" (for Deutsch). Check out the QPOS resource. It determines where the quote is displayed and how the text grows. There are comments in the resource itself on how to use it. There are only three fields, so you can not muck much up. V1.3: You can now set the sequential flag in the QPOS resource to have GQ display quotes sequentially instead of randomly. Although the randomness has improved in V1.3 as well.
