This is the first EASY UP AND RUNNING release for Hands On.
It is significantly easier to "get going" than previous
releases. Try it.
This file provides a brief introduction and a list of useful
programs/files. Hands On is a DOS remote access/support
package that includes a range of tools for such things as
automated off-site backups. The file list below provides
hints for where and how to go and look for information.
Please note that by far the most common feedback that we have
had to the initial release of Hands On 5.00 is that people
only re-distribute portions of the package onto their BBS's.
As a reaction, we have removed a number of files from the
default BBS distribution, but have left them listed below.
The September 1994 and later distributions have the most
useful 'core' of the package for you to evaluate. The full
October BBS distribution comes in a file like HO5OX.ZIP. The
core version will be HO5O.ZIP, with the eXtras in the HO5X.ZIP
file. For November these change to HO5NX.ZIP, HO5N.ZIP, and
HO5X.ZIP. We have no way of fully controlling what you have
actually received so there is no sense indicating what you
actually have. We plan to upload 'the rest' onto systems like
Compuserve and will also supply the whole package when you ask
at registration. Check with disk vendors and the like to see
what they are carrying.
1sthand.exe run it first. Its provides easy
setup and access to the manuals. Use
'1sthand setup' for a directed setup
