Thanks to the BoR Senile team for making the engine in the first place;
thanks to ZG and GP32 sceners for making it fun to buld these things.

Thanks for enjoying!

Requirements
------------

BoR/Palm needs a pretty beefy device in order to run; most of these PAKs
require a minimum of 8MB runtime RAM on your device. This is separate from
storage memory -- although the T|T1 has 16MB onboard, only 700k is
available as runtime RAM!

Tapwave Zodiac, PalmOne T|T3, Sony Clie UX50 are all examples of units
which can run this very nicely.

Requires an expansion card, such as SD, MemStick, etc.

Zodiac Internal (virtual SD card) may be supported.. didn't try yet :)

Controls
--------

Regular devices:
  5-way -- movement
  Screen tap (bottom half) -- fire special move (use your finger!)
  hardkeys -- movement (left two buttons, usually, and page up/down)
  hardkeys -- fire, jump (right two buttons, usually)
  Start button -- pause, start, etc. (most menus work with triggers as well)

Zodiac:
  Analog -- movement
  Red Trigger -- fire (works as Start most of the time too)
  Orange Trigger -- jump
  Shoulder Triggers (rear edge of device) -- fire special move
  Start button -- pause, start, etc. (most menus work with triggers as well)
  Screen tap (bottom half) -- fire special move (use your finger!)

Install
-------
Install BoR.prc as normal (double click on it, for example); can be on card
or in RAM.

Install one or more .pak BoR files; Each .pak is a game. You can have
multiple games. .pak files MUST be on an expansion card, in
/PALM/Programs/BoR -- they cannot reside in RAM.

Use a Card Writer if you can; hotsync isn't suitable to this size of
file. You can also use Card Export shareware to make your PDA work as a
card writer, or use MSExport etc on a Sony Clie.

Scaling and Zodiac Fullscreen
-----------------------------
On devices with a 480 wide screen, a Scale checkbox will be presented
on the game picker; check it to enable 1.5 width scaling. (This doesn't
count for T|T3 in landscape mode, since PalmOne made that mode very slow
so its not useful for gaming :( -- this scaling mode will look great on
the UX50 or the like though :)

For the Tapwave Zodiac, the hardware scaling and smoothing will be enabled
so the full screen will be used... sexy!

NOTE
----
This can be slow to load.. remember, these PAK files are a couple of
megabytes to 60MB or more! If it looks locked up, just wait a minute :)
