 This install applies to "Maniac Mansion" © 1989 Lucasfilm

 This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path. It can be found in the
 WHDLoad package.

 The installed program requires 0.5 MB ChipMem and 1.0 MB OtherMem.
 It can be quit by pressing num '*' (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 requester.
 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.

 If you have problems with this installation please try and get a newer
 version of this package from the WHDLoad WWW-Page. If that doesn't help try
 some Tooltypes like NOCACHE, NOAUTOVEC, NOVBRMOVE, NOMMU, PAL or NTSC. If
 that also fails, please inform the author via the Bug-Report-Form which
 can be accessed on the WHDLoad WWW-Page.

History:

 version 1.4 (25.05.2004) done by JOTD:
 - removed 68020+ dependent code: game is now 68000 compatible (issue #003017)
 - reassembled with latest kickemu: quitkey now works on 68000 CPUs

 version 1.3 (03.06.2004) done by JOTD:
 - reworked source & readme for WHDLoad v16

 - Convenient install script
 - Normal/NewIcon/GlowIcon/Exoticon icons provided
 - docfile and walkthrough included
 - sourcecode included

 version 1.2 (october 2001)
 - Rewritten to use kickstart dos library, patched access fault on Ctrl+C 

 version 1.1 (?)
 - Supports 3 versions (french, german, english).
   Mouse speed increased (requested by some Lucasfilm games users)

 version 1.0 (2001) done by JOTD
 - initial release. Supports only UK version
   (for other versions, protection is still there)

Notes:

- Game worked almost OK in DOS mode but some gfx may be corrupt depending on your system
  and there were no quit key
- Game worked almost OK using OSEmu but a bug in some gfx lib emulation routine fucked up
  the scrolling to the left (!). Using original graphics library through KickEmu works.
