This is the README file for disk 2 of 3.

If you are installing this on a Hard Drive:

   1. Copy the QINSTALL.COM and QINSTALL.HLP file into the
      subdirectory where the QMODEM.* files are located.

   2. Create a \SCRIPTS subdirectory underneath the \QMODEM directory (or
      whatever you called it) and copy the *.SCR files in it.  Make sure
      you update Qinstall with the scripts subdirectory name if you are
      creating it for the first time.

   3. Run the Qinstall program and go through all the menus and completely
      configure Qmodem.  This is very important!



If you are installing this on a floppy, it is pre-installed.  To
run the Qinstall program with a two-drive floppy system:


   1. Copy the QMODEM.CNF file to this disk.

   2. Copy the QMODEM.COM file to this disk.

   3. Execute Qinstall per the manuals instructions.

   4. Copy the QMODEM.COM and QMODEM.CNF files back to your working
      Qmodem disk.

About the files on this disk...


Files with an extention of .SCR are Script files.  They can be executed
from the Alt-F command, called from the Qmodem command line, or linked to
Function keys for fast execution.


There is a special USRobotics Courier HST setup script and DOC files.  Dan
Moore put this jewel together and it really is super!  Even if you do not
have an HST, check this script out to see how menus and prompts can be put
together.  ( Thanks Dan! )



NOTE:  For those of you upgrading from a previous version of Qmodem:

       There is a CNF conversion program included called CONV-CNF.EXE. Run
       this program BEFORE running Qinstall so you will not have to
       recreate the CNF from scratch.  Also included on this disk are
       three different FON file converters.

           CNVRT1XX.COM  Converts pre 2.0 FON to 2.0 level FON file
           CNVT2023.COM  Converts 2.0-2.2 FON to 2.3 level FON file
           CNVRTFON.COM  Converts pre 3.0 FON to 3.0-3.1a FON file

       Depending on how old your previous version of Qmodem is (if any),
       start at the appropriate conversion program and work your way up to
       the 3.1a level.  Follow each programs directions completely before
       moving on to the next conversion (if needed).



NOTE:  External protocols are no longer sent out with the distribution
       diskettes.  You can download the latest versions of the
       external transfer protocols from our BBS at (319)233-6157.
