        --{ DISCLAIMER }---------------------------------------------------

        iTPDraw is considered a GIFT to the ANSI ARTSCENE by FROST and ITP.
        I have decided to release it FREE in all ways possible, which means
        that you may use it, distribute it, sell it, modify it, hex out my
        handle from it and add yours, or ANYTHING you can think of.

        iTPDraw will ALWAYS be free, and I will NEVER have ANY expectations
        from you (the user) whatsoever for using it.


        --{ INFORMATION }--------------------------------------------------

        iTPDraw is an utility to create colored ASCII screens (better known
        as ANSI GRAPHICS). It is coded from scratch in PASCAL and ASSEMBLER
        and compiled using Turbo Pascal v7.0. Most features was originally
        introduced in TheDRAW by Ian Davis (which I consider the first real
        ANSI drawer), but the drawer is more or less based upon ACiDDraw by
        Skull Leader.

        My goal with iTPDraw is to make it totally superior to all other
        utilities of its kind, and to kick the butt of every single author
        who tries to make money out of hobby artists. :)


        --{ WHAT'S NEW }---------------------------------------------------

        The following has been added :

           - Blink/iCEColor toggling
           - Improved INSERT mode for text editing
           - VGA viewing (finally!..;>) (only 320x200x255 so far)
           - More stuff :)

           - ... etc.


        --{ REQUIREMENTS }-------------------------------------------------

        iTPDraw requires the following :
           - A 80286, 80386, 80486 or Pentium processing chip.
           - Any operating system/emulator that can run DOS applications.
           - Approximately 260Kb of free conventional memory.

           - 320-330Kb of free XMS memory for XMS PAGES and BLOCK UNDO.
           - VGA for 80x50 editing, palette changing etc...
