New Days file for !Today applet
-------------------------------

The 'OEDays' file included in this archive is intended to provide an 
'Old English' alternative to the list of Days provided with the 
existing !Today applet for Ovation Pro. The range of festivals and 
saints' days was derived from the calendar of Forgotten English 1998, 
in combination with the previous file. This version contains a higher 
proportion of saints' days and ancient festivals fewer "strange" 
festivals, and also has a number of inconsistencies in format 
(eg spelling and grammatical errors) corrected.

In order to use this file, it is necessary to recompile the calendar
year file within the !Today applet. Follow these steps:

1) locate the !Today applet on your hard disc and copy the OEDays
   file inside.
2) At the command line (press F12 or CTRL-F12) change to the !Today 
   directory (for example, on my hard disc I would type 
   *Dir HardDisc4::$.DTP.OvnPro.!OvnPro.Applets.!Today)
3) Use the daymaker utility to recompile the year file. The syntax
   for this command is *daymaker <year> <yearfile> <days> - so for
   1998 you would enter *daymaker 1998 1998 OEDays.
4) The new year file will now automatically be used whenever the
   !Today applet is invoked from within Ovation Pro. To return to
   the original file, substitute Days for OEDays in the daymaker
   command.

I hope you find this updated calendar useful.
