If you want StopWatch to appear under the RunOPL icon on the system screen, copy StopWatch.OPO to the \OPO\ directory on any drive. If you want on-line help, copy the help file STOPWTCH.RSC to the \OPD\ directory on any Psion drive. Operation --------- Launch StopWatch by selecting its name under its own icon (StopWatch.OPA) or the name "StopWatch" under the RunOPL icon (StopWatch.OPO) on the system screen and pressing . The StopWatch screen features a window showing the current reading, with several "buttons" under it to remind you of the keyboard shortcuts to the most common operations. The right-side of the screen shows a table where any latched lap times are displayed. Press Space to start the clock running. Pressing Space again will stop the clock. A third press will zero the display and start the clock running again. While the clock is running, Enter will latch the current value into the lap table, without stopping the clock.
