Welcome to the Amiga version of StarGen. I (Michael A. Piva) can take
no credit in the writing of this program; I only recompiled it for the
Amiga.

*********************

StarGen is a a random solar system generator, derived from the work of a
great number of people over the past three dozen years. (See Credits.txt
for details.) It's called StarGen because there are already enough
versions that call themselves starform to be confusing. StarGen's
preferred output format its Web pages.

This distribution includes the following files:

    ReadMe.txt                              The file you are reading
    Credits.txt                             The history of the program
    Manual.html                             The user's manual
    C sources                               The source code for the 
        *.c and *.h                             program itself
    Macintosh-specific sources:             Specific sources for 
        mac_prefix.h StarGen.r StarGen.prj      the Mac version
    Windows project files:                  Project files for
        StarGen.dsp StarGen.dsw                 Visual C on Windows
    Makefile                                Make file for Unix/Mac OS X
    HTML subdirectory                       Images etc. referred to by
        html/*.gif and html/Key.html            the generated HTML

and if you took the Mac version of the distribution:

    StarGen PPC                             Version compiled for PPC
    StarGen 68K                             Version for the original Mac

The windows executable version contains:

    StarGen.exe                             Windows-32 version

The Amiga executable version was made by Michael A. Piva and contains:

    StarGen.000    (Basic version)
    StarGen.020    (68020 optimized version)
    StarGen.020fpu (FPU optimized version of StarGen.040)
    StarGen.040    (68040 optimized version)
    StarGen.060    (68060 optimized version)
    AmigaStar example Star System (seed used based on word "AMIGA")

To build a Unix or Mac OS X version of StarGen, cd to the directory
containing the files listed above and type

    make

You may need to edit the Makefile if you are using a version of Unix or
the GNU development tools very different from the Mac OS X and GNU C and
make that I used for development and testing.

To build the Macintosh-native version you will need a copy of Code
Warrior from Metrowerks. The supplied StarGen.prj file was created with
version 2.1 of Code Warrior and so should work with any version from the
last 5 years.

To build on Windows you will nee Visual C or to use the GNU development
tools from the command line.

To get more detailed documentation, feed the file Manual.html to a Web
browser or Help viewer that reads HTML files.
