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. |

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. |

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 | |
80 | |
81 | The README file has been reorganized, and the dedication made explicit. |
