MkExpl v3.0
Copyright 1996/ 1997 by Lennart Steinke

What is MkExpl ?

	It's a nice little utility which generates bitmaps of an explosion
	using particle systems and a blur filter.


Conditions of use

	I consider MkExpl as some sort of Mail Ware. If you like it, mail me or write me
	a postcard. If you use the code or the explosions generated in your programs,
	it would be nice if could give me some credit.
	Oh... linking to my home page (The Game Programming Galaxy) would be nice, 
	also.          

How to use it ?

	Call MkExpl with the parameter -? to get an overview of the
	parameters.
	Try 
		mkexpl -b8		for a nice explosion with fire ring
		mkexpl -b10		for an explosion without ring 
		mkexpl 			gives a nice explosion, too

	If you want to save the images, you have to enable the "Save as PCX" function:
		mkexpl  -s1



Why is this doc so short ?

	Because it's a simple program and noone reads the friendly manual
	anyways.
