;;; *** Balloon [Version 1.52] 1999-11-03 ***
;;; Copyright 1995 - 1999 ManuSoft
;;;
;;; This program creates leaders and encloses the leader text in a
;;; 'Balloon'. If the text has fewer than 3 characters, the balloon is
;;; a DONUT;; if longer, the balloon is an ELLIPSE. Both text and balloon
;;; continue at the same angle as the last line in the leader. Editable
;;; parameters let you put the balloon on a specific layer, adjust the
;;; gap between text and balloon and the balloon's lineweight, and specify
;;; whether the leader is a block or individual entities.
