-- History --

Hi!  My name is Yannick Lazzari aka "etrange".  This is my second attempt at a frontent.  My 
first one was a crappy frontend for Neorage called TechNeo.  Now, I've come up with a new one
but this time for the gameboy emulator Dboy.  I've used the programing skills I aquired so
far in college to try and make my life, and yours, a lot more easier when using Dboy.  I will
try to update this frontend with every new versions of Dboy and sometimes between releases 
(if changes are needed).  It is coded using Visual Basic 5.0.

*** For those who are interested***

The name of my frontend is English/French.  Since I'm Quebeccer, I wanted to include something
related to my origins in the name.  It's made from "Start" and "le", which is a French 
word that means "it", but it's a masculine "it", meaning that we use it with a masculine word.
Basically it means "start it!".

-- How to use it --

It is quite simple.  Just unzip the package to the same directory as Dboy.exe.  Double-click
on the executable file.  Browse through the directories.  Double-click on a game to select it.
Browse through the numerous options of DBoy, select the ones that suits you best. Press on 
the play button and voil!

***** NOTE *****

When chosing an option that you can custom, if you leave the text box where you are suppose to 
put in something blank, the default setting for this option will be used.  Confused??? Here's an
example:

	[ ] No cheat (default)
		   ____________________
	[*] Cheat [____________________]

Since the text box is empty, Start Le! will use the no cheat option which is the default setting.
If you want to use the cheat option, you HAVE TO put something in the box.  This goes for every 
options that can be customize.			

-- What's new? --

v0.2 (january 9th, 1999)
	
	- Added support to all of DBoy's options.  Well...not all.  Left out the ones I did not
	  feel like adding (selecting the background color, the sprite color,
	  the window color, swap buttons and autofire).  I'll add support for those later.
	- Changed a little bit the GUI.  Still that Windows application look though.

v0.1 (january 8th, 1999)

	- First release!
	- So far, the only thing it does is run the games with Dboy's default settings.
	- There's a cool music that plays while you decide which game you want to play 
	  (that explains the file size being more than 500kb)

-- Things to come --

	- Adding support to the missing options
	- Zipped rom support
	- Bug fixes
	- Esthetic changes
	- Possibility to save the settings in a .cfg file
	- Possibility to choose your own .mid or .wav to play while using Start Le!
