 -- 1. Introduction ----------------------------------------------------


    Leveller  is  a  simple  tool  that  evaluates  the inclination of
    straight lines in an image.




 -- 2. Legal Stuff -----------------------------------------------------


    Leveller  is  licenced  under  the  Creative Commons  Attribution-
    NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Licence (CC BY-NC-ND
    4.0). To view a copy of the licence, visit:
            http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/




 -- 3. System Requirements ---------------------------------------------


    Leveller  works under 32 bit Windows systems and does not need any
    particular  resource  apart  from  the standard  Visual Basic v6.0
    (SP6)  RunTime libraries,  which are included,  if needed,  in the
    file "VB6SP6rt.exe".




 -- 4. How to Install --------------------------------------------------


    Leveller does not need any installation: just unzip and run it!

    If it does not run, execute the file "VB6SP6rt.exe" and follow the
    prompts, then retry.




 -- 5. How to Use ------------------------------------------------------


    [a] Drag'n'drop  any  image file into the main window of Leveller,
        or press <Ctrl>+<V> to paste an image from the Clipboard;
    [b] click on the image to set the extremities of the segment whose
        inclination you want to know;
    [c] read the inclination in the title bar of Leveller.

    Press <Esc> to reset the measuring segment.
    Press <F1> to open this ReadMe.




 -- 6. How to Uninstall ------------------------------------------------


    If, for some reason, you do not like  Leveller:  close it,  delete
    its folder and any shortcut created.
    That will completely uninstall Leveller. :-(

    Leveller does NOT leave any rubbish on the HD or Registry but,  if
    you had to install the Visual Basic libraries, you may remove them
    through the usual  "Add/Remove"  applet  in  the  Windows  Control
    Panel, but be careful: they may be shared by other programs!




 -- 7. Feedback, Suggestions, Bug-Reports ------------------------------


    Any  comments,  suggestions  and  (most  of  all)  bug-reports are
    welcome. Please use the eMail address: OiPaz@oipaz.net
    It is advisable to specify "Leveller" in the subject field  and to
    report  the  version  and  some  info about the Windows and Visual
    Basic environment of your computer.
