Taxi! is  a utility  to  estimate taxicab  fares  given an  estimated  road
distance (for example from Mapper3a/London)  and an assumed average  speed.
It uses a  database file that  is easily  modified with the  built in  Data
application so you can add your favourite (or least favourite depending  on
costs!)  cities.  London and New York are included.  

QUICK INSTALLATION

There are three files that should be installed:

TAXI.OPA       in a \APP\ directory on any drive
               this is the application, a Type 1 OPA
TAXI.DBF       in a \OPD\ on any drive
               this is the cities database
HAILTAXI.DBF   [Optional] in a \OPD\ on any drive
               this sets up your startup and defaults

Then install the icon using Psion-I from the system screen.

OTHER FILES

The package includes the following files:

Readme.txt     this file
Taxi.wrd       Manual, especially on how to add cities to the daabase
               Psion Word format.
Taxi.txt       plain text version of manual.
Taxi.opp       Source code for Taxi, requires Andy Clarkson's OPP
Runtaxi.opl    Example of how to run Taxi and get a fare from another program

ICON
Taxi! needs a decent icon.  Any offers?
