Support@Dimeric.com Release Notes ------------- 2.1.20 - December 9, 2003 * Nothing new in this version. Getting Started --------------- The easiest way to begin a new DSP project is to use the File | New | Other | DSP | DSP Application wizard in the Delphi IDE. This will create a new DSP application with a single page. After completing the wizard, simply hit F9 to run your application. A console window will appear, instructing you to hit 'B' to launch a browser, or 'Q' to quit. Choose 'B', or point your browser to http://localhost:PORT/ (where PORT is the port the application is listening on; this is displayed in the console window). You can create additional pages using the File | New | Other | DSP Page wizard. You can modify the configuration of the application by editing its .INI file (created automatically by the new application wizard). Documentation ------------- DSP comes with a help file (Delphi\Dimeric\Help\DSP.hlp) that integrates with Delphi's on-line help. DSP also comes with a syntax guide, which describes the features of .dsp files (Delphi\Dimeric\Doc\DSP-Syntax-Guide.pdf). Finally, the DSP Tutorial provides a good introduction to the features of DSP. To run the tutorial, open the project (Delphi\Dimeric\Demos\DSPTutorial) and run it in the IDE. When the application starts up, it will offer you two choices: 'B' to launch browser, and 'Q' to quit. Choose 'B', or point your browser to http://localhost:PORT/ (where PORT is the port the tutorial is listening on; this is displayed in the console window).
