STDB v1.7 - Full version

 This program was designed to display my Star Trek Data Base
 but it can be used for your own files if you wish to write them in the
 format which the STDB prog can understand.

 Written with Blitz Basic 2.

 History
 -------
 v1.7
 ----
 * Added Palette requester to allow changing of the Link and Text
   colours more easily. Also has ability to save those colours to
   the tooltypes.
 * Fix bug from previous version. (which wasn't released)
 * Changed colours in 'STDB/dat/screen' file to allow palette requester
   to appear better.

 v1.6 (Not Released)
 ----
 * Added the palette req. but had a few errors.

 v1.5
 ----
 * Added option of tooltypes TEXT=###,###,### and LINK=###,###,###
   to allow user to change colours of the text used for
   normal text an links.
   ### can be hex or decimal (MUST be 3 digits - 30 should be 030)

 v1.4
 ----
 * Changed tooltype code, so screenmode is stored in ttypes, rather
   than comment field
 * Also allow different depths of screen rather than set 8
 * Added tooltype for CYCLE.
 * Changed sound loader, now uses datatypes.

 v1.3
 ----
 Changed Datatype code, so now Jpeg's can be used.
 (this cuts the picture sizes by 50% - 70%)

 Typical. I tried for ages to get a jpeg remap (selected colours) working,
 but couldn't, so I uploaded the RGFX picture version.
 Next day - got it working. Typical.

 v1.2
 ----
 First public release.

 v0 - v1.1
 ---------
 Private versions, with bugs and unfinished parts.
