- * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

- ===============================================================================
-
- Getting Started...
- BCOM QUEFILE/FAX shareware version is a significantly reduced functionality
- version of the real product. The shareware version is a functional product
- and is not a simulator. Send and receive data files ( fax support is reduced
- to receive only!) Again, the FAX MANAGER WILL RECEIVE ONLY (this is not a bug).
- Feel free to distribute the shareware version to whomever you like.
- BCOM encourages you to purchase (see license.me) a full-functioning,
- documented version ASAP.
-
-
- ===============================================================================
-
- Where to go from here...
- Read the BCOMWIN.DOC and QUEFAX.DOC files. There may or may not be additional
- DOC and .ME files, read them as well. The shareware version has no install
- facility, but all that is required is to make a BCOM group and place the
- following items into the group:
- BCOMWIN.EXE
- FAXMGR.EXE
- DDE1.EXE
-
-
- Run BCOMWIN.EXE before running any other component. It will set up your WIN.INI.
