Tubthumpin' by Marc Warne
  1998 Alpha Programming

    You know when you're very bored, you can get sooo bored you make a
program with no point to it whatsoever? Well - this is a prime example of
this! It took quite a while to write, but it actually looks really nice!

    It's basicially the lyrics to Tubthumping by Chumbawamba which are
displayed in real time to the music. It's not just plain lyrics scrolling
across the screen, but huge, bold, colourful ones!

    If you wish to use the proper lyrics (some may find them offensive),
change the line saying 'proper_lyrics%=FALSE' to 'proper_lyrics%=TRUE'.

    Load it to see what it looks like!
    
    Tested with:
        - Tubthumping (Single, track 1)
        - Smash Hits 98 (CD 1, track 4)
        - Now 38 (CD 1, track 1)
    
    and on my RiscPC 700. It will probably work on a low-res monitor if you
muck about with some of the settings.

    It may take a long time to display some of the words as the fonts used
are huge, so if you enter '-1' for the CD ROM drive, it will go through the
entire program very quickly, hopefully storing all the fonts in the font
cache. It is advisible that you create a large font cache, of around 1MB
to be safe.

    For the best effects, you should enter '-1' for the CD ROM drive.
This makes the program run without any waiting, so all the fonts used
can be put in the font cache. This should ideally be around 1MB. When
using the program normally afterwards, there will be no waiting time
for the fonts to be displayed.

    Have fun!
