** WARNING

Autograph only works with Eudora. If you don't have Eudora, give up. If you
don't know what Eudora is, give up. You also need System 7.

** WHAT IT DOES

Not much. It changes your signature in Eudora. You can drag and drop a text file
onto Autograph and it'll change your Eudora signature to that. If you tell it to
make a TEXT file into a signature, the next time you double-click on the file,
the signature in Eudora will be changed to it. The idea is to have a folder of
signatures, any which one can be double-clicked on to change your signature.
Drag the whole folder over Autograph if you want Autograph to pick a random one.
You can also make a signature that picks up random quotes when it is accessed.
Oh yeah, if Eudora happens to be running when you double-click one of the
signatures, it'll switch back to Eudora.

** CHANGES SINCE 1.1

-- Now Autograph supports file inclusion for random signatures

The file must be in Bongo Bob format, that is, each quote separated by

%%.

To include a file of this type, you need to know it's complete pathname. On a
line of it's own, in the signature, type:


where pathname should be the path of your quotes file. For example, my disk is
named random, so to display a quote from Bongo Bob Data each time I double-click
on a signature I put the following line in one of my signatures:


You can include more than once, and the rules for finding the Eudora Settings
file still apply.

** Recent CHANGES

-- Support for Eudora 2.xx and multiple Eudora Folders

This version added the ability to select which Eudora Settings file to modify.
With no additional information given, Autograph will look for a file called
"Eudora Settings" in a folder called "Eudora Folder" inside the active System
folder. These can all be aliases....

If you have multiple Eudora folders on your disk, make sure that an alias (or
the real thing) of "Eudora Settings". Make sure that it is in the same folder(s)
as the signature(s).

Easy huh? This works for random signatures too!

More explanation: say you have a folder called "Signatures" containing
signatures like I do. Your "Eudora Settings" file is somewhere on some disk.
Make an alias of it. Drop it in the Signatures folder. Autograph will not look
in the System folder anymore! Autograph will use the alias to find your settings
file.

As long as the alias is called "Eudora Settings" and resides in the same folder
as the signature/text file, it will modify this file. This could conceivably be
used to modify any file (Why? I don't know). Multiple folders could have
different aliases pointing to different Eudora Settings files.

Obviously, everyone should have their own set of signatures to avoid conflicts.

Eudora 2.x.x note: Make an alias of your SIGNATURE file, not Eudora Settings.
Name this alias "Eudora Settings" and put it in the same folder as

-- Multi-language compatibility

Now the folder (Eudora Folder in English) and file (Eudora Settings) to change
version of Autograph in YOUR language, you can make one!

-- Random signatures

Yes, that feature we've all been waiting for:

If you drag a FOLDER over Autograph, it picks a random file in that folder to be
your signature. Be careful. Make sure all your files in that folder are
acceptable signature files.

** IMPROVEMENTS PLANNED

None. Unless you have a REALLY AMAZINGLY GOOD IDEA(TM).
