Load STj by double click its program icon on the GEM desktop... or from putting it into the AUTO folder of a floppy disk and rebooting.
The main screen (on early versions this included a cheesy starfield effect). But the interface seems so unfriendly... what next?
Press the 'help' key :) These handy tips appear reminding of the key presses.
Need more help? Press the 'help' key again and enter STj's full featured help system. In this mode keys 0-9 select different help screens. You can also navigate through them with the cursor keys!
For instance help screen '9' contains a full description of the keyboard controls. Here we see that 'tab' will load the GEM file selector, and 'space' plays a song.
Press 'help' to return to STj's main screen
As we learned from the help system, pressing 'TAB' here loads the GEM fileselector. Here we navigated to our SNDH folder and selected the Menace soundtrack.
You made it! STj just loaded the track - you can also see that the software changed its directory... So now you can quickly load the other songs in the same directory with the letter keys!
Press 'space' to start playing the song... We're rocking now!
But you've forgotten the controls again? Don't forget that pressing 'help' brings up the keyboard tip reminders!
Enjoy!
