Trouble Shooting *************************************************************
1. TAF Clock does not display properly
  a. Wallpaper is too light in color
	If much of a wallpaper is composed to light color such as white or
	yellow, TAF Clock will be too transparent to be seen clearly.
	Change the wallpaper to those that uses dark colors or change the
	digit's font color.
  b. A window is maximized
	When TAF Clock is started, a digital clock will be displayed on the
	upper right-hand side of the screen.  If a window is covering that
	location, the clock will be displayed underneath them.
	Move the TAF Clock where a wallpaper is always showing.

2. An error occurs when TAF Clock is started
  a. WATShadow is running
	If WATShadow program (by WAT), a program to add shadows to a window,
	is running on a system, an error might occur.  Please use WATShadow
	version 1.3 or later which fixed this program.

Versions *********************************************************************
	Ver. 1.5	Save font properties
			Add more options
	Ver. 1.0	Initial release

Miscellaneous ****************************************************************
  The distinguishing feature of this program is its semi-transparent digits.
If a landscape wallpaper is used, the clock will blend nicely with it.
