Requirements:
-------------
This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path.
This program can be found in the WHDLoad package.

The installed game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem and 0.5 MB OtherMem.
(+0.9 MB for preload)
It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").
The game requires an installed A500 Kickstart 1.3 image.
The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from a A500 with
tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
an appropriate message.
Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive
"util/boot/skick346.lha" on aminet.

- Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')
"And now for my next number I'd like to return to the classics" so here it
is, the patch for a real classic trading simulation. I spent so many hours
playing the C64 version back in the day with a schoolmate and his
mother, good old nostalgia, sniff. ;) While I prefer the C64 version
the Amiga port is very good too despite being programmed in BASIC(!).
Patching it wasn't too trivial because of the overlay hunks and the compiled
BASIC code but the game deserves a proper patch so I enjoyed working on it.
I have disabled all disk requests so load/save works without any annoying
"insert disk and click mouse" screens. If you load a game make sure the
file exists as otherwise the game will quit with an error message.
Enjoy this classic from HD, patches for the other games by Ralf Glau
will follow.
