StdioView V1.0
-------------

What is it?
-----------
StdioView is a Microsoft Foundation Class port of the WinStdio
(Also available from the same place you got this). Basically, 
StdioView is an MFC view class which provides a number of 
functions to emulate console input and output Windows 
(partcularly Win16). Namely, it provide equivalent 
functionality for the C runtime library functions 
printf(), puts and gets(), prototyped in <stdio.h>, hence 
"StdioView".


How much does it cost?
----------------------
Nothing. StdioView is copyrighted freeware. I wrote 
StdioView for myself, and I have found it useful for porting 
some simple DOS programs to Windows/MFC. If you find it 
useful, use it: If you don't, pass it on to somebody else 
who might.


Where's the catch?
------------------
Well, I copyrighted the code so that I can do as I please 
with it, but you can use it and distribute it in anyway 
that you like, as long as you don't try to sell the 
source code as it stands. However, to avoid a severe case 
of 'Versionititis', I would ask that you don't 
redistribute modified copies of StdioView. If you feel 
compelled to make available a 'much-debugged' version, 
please let me have a copy, so that I can synchronize 
releases.


How do I use it?
----------------
Simple. Just include STDIOVW.CPP in your MFC project and 
include STDIOVW.H header file in your MFCC source files.
Then create and attached instances of the class CStdioView
to you frame windows, and make calls to CStdioView::printf(), 
CStdioView::puts() or CStdioView::gets().

The latest version of StdioView is always available from 
my Web page (see below).
