	1.2	System Requirements
		Sleep Screen requires Newton OS 2.1, and a Message Pad 2000, Message 
		Pad 2100, or eMate.

	1.3	Registering Sleep Screen
		The Sleep Screen Demo will work for a 30 day trial period. At the end 
		of the 30 Days, it will stop working. To avert this tragedy, you will
		 need to get in touch with Stand Alone to register your software. You 
		 can register with us by several different methods. 
		
		You will need to include the following information, no matter how you 
		choose to register. Most importantly, you need to include your name 
		EXACTLY as it is entered in your Newton, including spaces. We use 
		this to generate your password, so it must be precise. You will need 
		to specify which programs you wish to register, and include payment 
		for each of them. We accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. 
		If you are using normal mail, you can send us a check as well. Make 
		sure to include your card number, the expiration date, and what type 
		of card you are using. You also need to give us a way to get in touch 
		with you. Email is the preferred way, followed by your address and 
		phone number. An Email address is not strictly necessary, but it will 
		result in much faster service.

		For instant gratification, register by phone, and pay using Visa or 
		Mastercard. To do so, call (773) 477-2492 and we will give you a 
		password right over the phone. 

		Alternatively, you can send us a check to the address below.

		You can also Email us one of several ways. The application has a 
		Register section under the  button. Tap on that to open up a 
		registration slip. If you fill out that slip, and have an Email 
		client on your Newton, it will automatically Email us and we will 
		send you a registration code. You could also just Email us the 
		relevant information from your Newton or a desktop machine, and 
		weÍll send you a code. If you are registering through Compuserve, 
		use, GO SWREG.

		Once you register, you will receive a password from us. You can 
		install this password one of two ways. There is an option to Enter 
		Password under the  menu. Tap on it to bring up a screen that has a 
		space to enter the password. Alternatively, just install the SA 
		Register package enclosed in the Sleep Screen archive. Select ñSleep 
		Screenî from the pop-up menu at the top, and enter the password. You 
		should get a message confirming the password. Afterwards, you may 
		remove the SAS Register application from you Newton.

		If you find a bug in our software, it would be helpful if you 
		reported the bug to us. To report a bug, please Email us with Bug 
		Report Request in the subject line.	 In the Email, include the 
		following information:

			´The error number
			´A brief description of how we can recreate the error

		that the programers have a written record of the information they need
		to solve the problem. As soon as we receive your Email, the programer 
		will examine the problem, and fix it.. Because our programers are 
		busy creating software, it can take a while for them to reply, but 
		they will release a new version of the software that fixes the bug as 
		soon as they can.

	3	Using Sleep Screen
		Sleep Screen is a program that lets you turn your Newton on with a 
		tap of your pen.

	3.1 Turning on your Newton
		Once Sleep Screen is installed, you can turn your Newton on by 
		tapping on the screen. Just turn your Newton off as normal, and it 
		will enter a light sleep mode. To turn it on, tap the screen. The 
		light sleep mode lasts for a duration set in the Preferences. After 
		that, the Newton turns fully off, and has to be turned on with the 
		power switch.

	3.2	Preferences
		The Preferences for Sleep Screen are found through the Prefs icon 
		in the Extras drawer. Open Prefs, and then select Sleep Screen.
		
		

	3.2.1  	Nap
		The Nap picker sets the length of time that the Newton goes into a 
		light sleep mode when it is turned off. While in the light sleep 
		mode, you can turn it on by tapping on the screen.

	3.2.2	Turn on Backlighting Automatically
		If this box is checked, the back lighting turns on automatically when 
		the Newton is turned on.
