NewsTicker v0.6 (24 Nov 2023)
--------------------------------

This is a little program that will get the latest news headlines and display
them in a single-line, moveable scrolling ticker window. The program uses a 
http get request so an internet connection is needed.

For now it only uses the BBC News headlines but I might add other news
sources in a next version. The news is updated every hour on the hour.

It's meant for multitasking systems such as MagiC. The ticker keeps running 
even if its window is not active. Modal dialog boxes and picking menu entries 
will halt the scrolling.

You can set the ticker speed and the window width. 

Written in HiSoft Basic 2.1.
