========================================================================
Roadmap of the Micropolis source code.
========================================================================
Micropolis designed and implemented by Will Wright,
Unix porting, optimization and multi player user interface design
by Don Hopkins (dhopkins@DonHopkins.com), for DUX Software.
========================================================================
Documentation:
manual
User manual and help page templates.
src/notes
Notes, to-do lists, lists of potential bugs to work on, and screen
snapshots.
Resources:
res
Resources, data, TCL code, etc.
Modified standard TCL/Tk widget libraries to support multiple
displays, by removing uses of global variables, and instead
storing screen-specific data in tk_priv map,
keyed by "<variable>@<screen>" where screen is
"[winfo screen $w]", the screen identifier.
