1. INTRODUCTION

JMC (JuggleMaster Pattern Converter) is a utility for converting
JuggleMaster pattern library files (e.g. patt_e.jm) into a format
usable by JMPalm, the PalmOS version of JuggleMaster.

JMPalm must be downloaded separately.


2. USAGE

JMC is a command-line utility. To use it, type the following:

jmc <patternfile> <outputfile>

The output file can be omitted, in which case jmpalmdb.pdb will
be used.

Example: If you want to convert your pattern file mypatterns.jm into
a JMPalm database file called mypatterns.pdb, type the follwing:

jmc mypatterns.jm mypatterns.pdb

When the conversion has completed, you can upload the pdb file
to your palm. This is usually done by double-clicking on the
file in Windows Explorer. After that, you will need to sync
your palm. Your new pattern library will replace any pattern
library already installed.


3. DOWNLOADING

JMC is available in the following forms:

* JMC for Windows 9X/ME/NT/2000/XP.
* JMC for Linux glibc.
* JMC source code.

If you downloaded the source code version, you need to compile
it before using. Here's how it's done on most unix systems:

cd prc
make
cd ..
make

The makefile may need tweaking if used for any other type of OS.

If you compile JMC for any major OS (such as MacOS, BeOS, SunOS etc.)
please email me the binary file so that I can make it available
for download.
