The full documentation of the LaceScan package is available in two forms:

  1:  Structured hypertext consisting of two files:

        DOCUMENT\LACESCAN.HYP		the actual hypertext
        DOCUMENT\LACESCAN.REF		reference links for the hypertext

  2:  ASCII source text for the abovementioned hypertext, plus image file:

        DOCUMENT\LACESCAN.STG		ASCII source of the hypertext
        DOCUMENT\AUTOLACE.IMG		IMG file of the overscan circuit

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are familiar with ST-Guide you already know what to do...,
so you can leave this READ_ME at once and get on with the real stuff.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are not familiar with ST-Guide you should do the following:

  1:  Read through the entire text of LACESCAN.STG

  2:  Study the circuit schematic in AUTOLACE.IMG

  3:  Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you feel confident of installing LaceScan

  4:  Install the LaceScan hardware and software, and start using it.

  5:  Get hold of a copy of the "ST-Guide" software package by Holger Weets,
      which is available from every well-stocked BBS.

  6:  Install and familiarize yourself with ST-Guide, so you won't have to
      bother with unstructured ASCII documentation in the future.

Obviously, steps 5 and 6 above are completely optional since no part of the
LaceScan software (or hardware) is in any way dependent on having ST-Guide.

I strongly recommend that you do install ST-Guide even so, and that you also
use its hypertext format if/when you produce documentation of your own.
The hypertext format of ST-Guide has established itself as a rapidly growing
(and much needed) standard for hypertext use on Atari systems.
