Summary

An Alarm Clock that doubles as a Screen Saver. Features gentle incremental alarm backed by a secondary alarm in 60 seconds. Alarm remains active for 24 hours and the keyboard spacebar serves as a 5 minute snooze-bar. Uses scrolling backdrop bitmaps already found on your hard drive and just makes a list of them (does not copy them). Also features the ability to minimize actively and gives access to the desktop / background. Demonstrates automated DOS shell batch scripting and self contained setup routines. Mouse controlled menus with simple text command sensors. Theatrical-like scrolling credits. All of your preferred settings are saved to a file and it even remembers the last bitmap that was used last in the backdrop. AND last but not least, the clock is a 3D analog face with A.M / P.M. posted in 3D on it's rear casing (spins occassionally to show it). Military time posted at the bottom of the screen. Maximum system refresh rate is utilized for low end integrated video circuits. Program also has the ability to delete it's self when commanded to do so. It's also partitioned hard drive friendly. It does require media, so don't forget to download them (broken into 2 parts).

Full Description

MAKE SURE YOU BUILD A FINAL EXECUTABLE OF THIS PROGRAM IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FOLDER!!!<br /> IF YOU RUN IT FROM THE EDITOR, THEN MAKE SURE YOU RUN IT IN A TEST FOLDER. THIS PROGRAM WILL, IN FACT, BUILD MORE FILES BY ITSELF UPON RUNNING AND YOU DON'T WANT TO CORRUPT ANY OF THE DATA IN AN ORIGINAL PROJECT FOLDER. UNDERSTAND? THE FILES YOU RECIEVE UPON DOWNLOADING SHOULD BE THE ONLY ONES THAT EXIST IN A SECURE PROJECT FOLDER (MAKE COPIES FROM THAT ONE)
