USE
---
Displays a Banner Sprite named 'mybanner2' (500 x 280) - which is to be
found in the '!MyBanner.Sprites' file - in the centre (or user set part)
of the screen for a user timed period.  Other sprites of the same name
and size can be created by the user if so desired.  Additionally, some
user defined text can be displayed on top of this.

o  The 'Text' is set in the '!MyBanner.!Run' file.

   eg. Set MyBanner$Title <Title>
       Set MyBanner$Line1 <Line 1>
       Set MyBanner$Line2 <Line 2>
       Set MyBanner$Line3 <Line 3>
       Set MyBanner$Line4 <Line 4>
       Set MyBanner$Line5 <Line 5>

   The title is displayed in a larger font.

o  The Title Text Colour is set in the '!MyBanner.!Run' file.

   eg. Black on White = Set MyBanner$TitleColour 07
      Red on White   = Set MyBanner$TitleColour 0B

o  The 'Time period' is set in the '!MyBanner.!Run' file.

   eg. Set MyBanner$Time 500
      The '500' would display the Banner for 5 seconds.

o  The vertical position of the banner can be altered in the
   '!MyBanner.!Run' file.

   eg.  To display banner in the centre of the screen:
        Set MyBanner$Height 0

        To display the banner 400 units lower:
        Set MyBanner$Height -400

        To display the banner 400 units higher:
        Set MyBanner$Height 400

o  If you need to change the name of the sprite inside !MyBanner.Sprites
   just change the content of MyBanner$SpriteName set in the
   !MyBanner.!Run file.  You could have several banner sprites inside
   the !MyBanner.Sprites file with different names and just set the name
   of the desired one.

o  Clicking 'select' on the Banner resets the counter to zero and the time
   period starts again.

o  Dragging 'select' on the Banner moves it.

o  Clicking 'menu' on the Banner opens the 'About this program' window.

o  Clicking 'adjust' on the Banner Quits it before the time limit has been
   reached.

o  An ArtWorks file called !MyBanner.RedBorder is supplied for you to make
   up your own sprite file in the banner.
