Matrix 1.34 and MatrixHack 1.3  By Alex Garza   Jan 8, 2001

*************************************************************************
Description:

Matrix is a small application that shows a clock, an animation and
sevall other gadgets.  It's greatest feature is that it can lock your
palm device making it a good security application.

MatrixHack is a hack for the application HackMaster.  What it does is
to launch matrix when the pilot is turned on.  To use it effectively,
set the "auto lock system" on the matrix application.  That way your
palm device will always be locked with the matrix application.

Matrix is FREEWARE.

HackMatrix is SHAREWARE but it is nag and timeout free so you can use it.

*************************************************************************
INSTALATION:

To install Matrix first delete any previous version with the built in
launcher application.  Failing to do so may result in a corrupted
preference file.

To Install MatrixHack you need to install HackMaster first.

To use MatrixHack you need HackMaster which is Shareware.  Please
visit http://www.daggerware.com for Hackmaster details and register
HackMaster with Daggerware if you have not already done so.

FAQ:

Q: I forgot my password, what do I do?

A: Try he default password is date-phone-to do-memo.  Press the keys
in that order and you should be fine. If that is not the password you
will need to reset your palm device (press the reset button on the
back of your pilot, you will not lose any data), delete matrix and
then reinstall it.

Matrix MANUAL:
  Most of matrix preferences are self explicatory.  So I am only going to 
  talk about the special ones.
  
  *Setting the security feature:
    -Select the preferences menu.
    -press the lock icon.
  On the set password form you can select which 4 hard key buttons will be 
  your password.
  If you select the autolock system, each time matrix is launched the system 
  will be locked.
  The launch after reset will launch matrix after the reset button is 
  pressed.
  Select 12 second to give you time to set HackMaster.
  The speaker buttons will disable the chirping sound made when you unlock
  matrix.

HackMatrix MANUAL:
  There are only 2 optioins on the hackmatrix prefereces form.
  Select the amount of time the device needs to be asleep (off) to launch
  matrix.
  If the option "launch last app" is set, then the last application that 
  was running before running matrix will be launch after unlocking.
