Subject: Random Desktop Picture v1.1


This new version of RDP is inspired by e-mail received from several people.
Using OS 8's Desktop Pictures control panel, the first version chose a
picture at random and posted it on the Desktop in tile layout only. Version
1.1 is a group of five AppleScript applets which allow the user to use
tile, centered, automatic, etc., as the position setting for the chosen
picture. More information is available in the README file.

NOTE: Random Desktop Picture v1.1 requires the following:
Mac OS 8
AppleScript extension
Desktop Pictures control panel (which is part of Mac OS 8)
Numerics scripting addition
