> GPLOMe v1.0 (Jan 9 2000)
> ========================

> WHAT DOES IT DO?

>   GPLOMe is short for GPL On-Line Messages and it enables
>   you to map hot keys for sending different chat messages
>   while you're in your car in a multi-player GPL game. So
>   instead of typing '<return>PO<return>' you can now simply
>   press F1 and watch in amazement (! :)) as GPLOMe transmits
>   your message.

> FEATURES

>   + 10 user configurable hot keys and their corresponding
>     messages.

>   + Annoying sound effects (off by default :)).

>   + Configurable character output delays.

> ...

> You can grab it from here (size about 60k):
> http://www.racesimcentral.net/~casper/GPLOMe10.zip

> Enjoy :)

>OK Casper, thanks for the updated fixed file<S>
