Rulers by Stephan Wacker Copyright 1993, 1994, Stephan Wacker. All rights reserved. This program is Freeware. You can use it, copy and distribute it as many times as you like, but you are not allowed to sell this program or parts of it. See the Info Panel for details. This application provides a set of horizontal and vertical rulers floating on your screen. You can measure distances in any of several units: inches, centimeters, points and picas. There are also modes for "true" units on black 17" and 21" screens. There is an English and a German user interface. If you want to add other languages you should declare them in the variable OTHER_LANGUAGES in Makefile.postamble. You must then make a complete copy of either English.lproj or German.lproj and translate all localizable text files and interfaces. The Makefile will install all localized resources, but only if they are complete. If you don't want to translate some of the resources you should still provide a dummy in your LANGUAGE.lproj folder and clean out the application afterwardsÐor you may find a better way to handle other languages in the Makefile. This application has been built under NeXTSTEP 3.2 on a black NeXTstation. No fat binaries included! Developers: Check it out! This app shows off some cool features: Windows don't have a title bar and resize bar but can be moved by a knob and resized by small buttons. Buttons and Boxes have a transparent background. Objects change their class after initialization from nib file. Panels change from regular layering to floating over other windows.
