1-- GOTCHA! GOTCHA! QUIET 2.03.00 --
2
3Gotcha! is an OS/2 screen capture utility. It allows to capture either
4windows, window interiors, parts of the screen or the whole desktop and
5save them to disk in many image formats (requires GBM.DLL) or clipboard.
6Serial capture and batch mode options are included.
7
8Gotcha! comes in 2 versions: the original on-screen Gotcha! and
9Gotcha! Quiet, a version that runs in the background and captures the
10Print Screen key combinations and does a capture based on your
11preferences.
12
13Gotcha Quiet is designed to replace the PM print screen facility and
14provides the same functionality as Gotcha! but without a visible presence
15on the Desktop.
16
17Since v1.73, Gotcha! is free software released under the GPL. See the file
18COPYING for details.

34-- INSTALLATION --
35
36Gotcha! and Gotcha! Quiet are distributed as a wpi archive. Use Warpin to
37install/uninstall them. You should uninstall any versions prior to 2.00
38either with Warpin (if they were wpi archives) or manually. This is to
39avoid leaving numerous old files in place since many of the file names
40have changed. You also need to install the Generalized Bitmap Module
41(GBM.DLL) by Heiko Nitzsche. It is installed with ArcaOS. It can be
42installed from the Arcanoae RPM repository using ANPM or yum install GBM.
43A zip package is available on Hobbes.
44
45-- BUILDING --
46
47Gotcha! and Gotcha! Quiet are now built with Open Watcom. You will need
48Open Watcom C/C++ 2.0 beta 3 or higher:
49ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/incoming/open-watcom-c-os2-2.0-beta3.zip
50
51You can build it with older versions of the OW compiler but will need to
52change the makefiles to use RC.EXE and IPFC.EXE from the OS2 toolkit in
53place of WRC.EXE and WIPFC.EXE.
54
55You also need SED.EXE, LXLITE.EXE, PERL.EXE, the GBM developer package
56and the exceptq developer's package. These are available from the
57Netlabs RPM repository. Use ANPM to install them. GBM is in the
58arcanoae RPM repository
59
60The setup cmds setgot.cmd and setgoq.cmd require the 4OS2 shell. You
61need to do a complete rebuild (wmake -a) after changing from building
62Gotcha to Quiet or changing from Quiet to Gotcha. "Wmake clean" followed
63by "wmake" also works. The setup cmds run make clean for you.
64
65I, Gregg Young, use PMPrintf for debugging but it isn't necessary to build.
