This little component does what you have certainly seen -
it shows a progress bar. There are two other progress bars
which have been shipped with Delphi - TBiGauge and TGauge.
To tell the truth it was based on TGauge. So if you ask
yourself why doing another Gauge component, the answer is
easy. The TBiGauge is a VBX, so you have to distribute this
along with your application, if you use it. But the real
reason is, that TRtGauge is smaller AND faster than the
other. If the only thing you want to do, is a progress bar
then look at it.

Files Included:
README.WRI	this file
RTREGGA.PAS	unit to register RtGauge with Delphi
RTGAUGE.PAS	RtGauge itself (DCU in the demo version and PAS in the registered one)
RT.PAS		unit with general functions I need
RTCONTS.PAS	Constants for this and/or my other components
TEST.*		test project
BIGAUGE.VBX	Borland's Gauge VBX needed to run test project
RTGAUGE.HLP	RtGauge help file
RTGAUGE.KWF	RtGauge keyword file
16\*.*		Files specific to Delphi 1.0
32\*.*		Files specific to Delphi 2.0

Installation:
Copy the RT*.DCR, RT*.DCU and RT*.RES files to the same
directory, including files from appropriate
subdirectory(16\ or 32\). Then follow the Delphi
instuctions for installing components. Both HLP and KWF
files should probably be copied into DELPHI\BIN, the KWF is
the keyword file, which can be installed with HELPINST.EXE.

In order to run RtGauge demo project you have to have
Borland's GAUGE.VBX installed onto component palette. I
have renamed this file to BIGAUGE.VBX and put into archive
file along with demo project to avoid conflicts with Visual
Basic's VBX of the same name.
