10 | This program is dedicated to Conrad Wong. | |
11 | ||
12 | This program is catware. If you find it useful in any way, pay for this | |
13 | program by spending one hour petting one or several cats. | |

16 | =================================================== | |
17 | ||
18 | ||
19 | Purpose: | |
20 | This program places a very cute (and familiar to FurryMuck fans) | |
21 | accent to any text file. It is designed for UNIX systems. | |
22 | It requires cc, lex, and yacc to be in your path. | |
23 | ||
24 | Compiling: | |
25 | To compile on a UNIX system, type 'make' | |
26 | ||
27 | Running: | |
28 | To do a line-by-line translation of your text, type 'ky00te'. | |
29 | Control-D will halt the program. | |
30 | ||
31 | To convert a text file and display it on the screen, type | |
32 | 'ky00te < filename | more', where filename is the file to convert. | |
33 | ||
34 | To convert a text file and save it to a file, type | |
35 | 'ky00te < filename.in > filename.out', where filename.in is the | |
36 | file to convert and filename.out is the place to put it. | |
37 | ||
38 | You can also add an accent to the output of any program by | |
39 | typing '<normal program execution> | ky00te'. | |
40 | ||
41 | Petting the cat: | |
42 | Stroke with the furs, not against them. | |
43 | ||

46 | Program version information: | |
47 | ||
48 | Program version 1.00: 13 December 1994 | |
49 | ||
50 | Program version 1.10: 15 December 1994 | |
51 | Version 1.00 was a memory hog. Also, adds 'fur' and 'meow' to | |
52 | list of cat-ch phrases. | |
53 | ||
54 | Program version 1.11: 16 December 1994 | |
55 | With Tobias Kuhler's (ukjp@rz.uni-karlsruhe.de) repeated suggestion, | |
56 | the program now only doubles (not triples) 'r' and no longer capitalizes | |
57 | fur. He also suggested the following improvements: | |
58 | at a, at the -> atta | |
59 | in a, in the -> ynna | |
60 | is a, is the -> yssa | |
61 | on a, on the -> onna | |
62 | with a, with the -> wyffa | |
63 | the -> da | |
64 | you -> ya | |
65 | and -> 'n | |
66 | with -> wyf | |
67 | to -> ta | |
68 | ||
69 | This version also no longer uses the same 'meow'; it switches between | |
70 | 'meow', 'mew', and 'mu' (weighted to the first). | |
71 | ||
72 | I've also added: | |
73 | lot of -> lotta | |
74 | is so -> yssa | |
75 | when -> w'en | |
76 | with -> wyf (when used to start a word) | |
77 | your -> yer | |
78 | not, n't -> na' | |
79 | ||

81 | The README file has been reorganized, and the dedication made explicit. | |
