Subject: BoloStar 1.5 Extension 

This Extension is for the BoloStar 1.5 map editor software. Drop it in the
   BoloStar Extensions folder with your copy of the program. The extension
   is written by Matt Slot, Slot-Machines Ltd., not K&D Software. This 
   extension is Freeware, as are all my extensions -- so pass it on.
   
Map >> Text allows you to remap a selection to an arbitrary text using
   different terrain to character mappings. This tool is useful for
   people who want to demonstrate a map portion in E-Mail or a newsgroup. 
   Remember that non-ASCII characters don't work well in mailers, so try
   to avoid them for use outside of the Mac World. (ResEdit hounds can
   modify the Mapping resource using the available Template :). Once 
   remapped, the text is placed onto the Clipboard for exporting to your
   favorite text or mail editor. Yes, I am aware of the duplication of
   some symbols, but you can change that can't ya...?
