Description |

AlphaSpeed |
This is the speed that the Telecom Engine Splash window will fade upon start-up. The AlphaBlend value of the splash screen form will start at 0 (transparent) and every 100th of a second the value of AlphaSpeed will be added to the AlphaBlend property until it reaches 255. The default value of AlphaSpeed is 3 which means it will take 255/3=85 ticks to become completely opaque (i,e just less than 1 second). After the alphablend (fade-in) part of the splash screen cycle the splash screen will display on the screen for one more second before disapearing. To prevent the fade-in part of the cycle from occuring set the AlphSpeed value to 0 (in which case the splash screen will just display for 1 second with no fade-in). To prevent the splash screen from displaying at all set the AlphaSpeed value to -1 (0xFFFFFFFF). |

FontSize |
The font size is used to calculate the size of the scrolling log window area. If the screen resolution on the system you are using is low then you should reduce the FontSize so that the TEX.EXE windows can fit onto the screen properly. However on high reolution screens a small font-size might will make for a small TEX.EXE window size which might be difficult to read. Suggested values of FontSize between 8 (for low res screens) and 16 (for high res screens) are suggested. The default value of FontSize is 10. |
|
HideTools |
If this is set to a non-zero value then the 'Tools' tab will not be shown on system startup. |

CXLibraries |
This is the list of Telecom Engine Libaries to load upon start-up. This entry is a string type and the list of libaries should be written as a semi-colon separated list of libary names. |
|
OldLibraries |
This is the list of Old-Style Telecom Engine Libraries to load upon start-up. None of the standard library set supplied with the Telecom Engine are in this format any more and this type of libarary has now been depreciated and may soon become obsolete. |
