│ This is a VENDINFO Product Information Record │
│ │
│ This record is a means of conveying information about a software │
│ product from the author to distributors and users. It contains a │
│ normal, "human-readable" section (you're reading it now), followed │
│ by a compressed data record. The data record contains a great │
│ deal of information in a form useable by automated tools. This │
│ allows BBSes, disk vendors, etc. to test automatically for │
│ permission to distribute, and to automatically extract product │
│ information for use in BBS files databases, vendor catalogs, etc. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO file standard is published and is freely useable. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO toolset includes a free end-user viewer, processing │
│ tools for use by distributors (BBSes, shareware disk vendors, │
│ etc.), and the editor used by author/publishers to produce these │
│ records. These tools are either free or very-low cost shareware. │
│ The toolset can be obtained from many sources, including the │

===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
This package contains the HAC Glossary For the Latest in Computer
Terminology, (Version 1.00), by Langin Software.
If you've ever wished you could keep up on the latest computer
terminology, which changes monthly, then the HAC Glossary is
for you. Use the SETUP program to install the HAC Glossary to
Windows.
The HAC Glossary is a shareware program. This evaluation version
includes all features of the program, and is not crippled in any way.
You may use it for up to 30 days, without charge. If you like the
program, and wish to continue its use after this evaluation period, you
are required to pay for the program. Any fee you may have paid to
others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation version
was a fee for their copying and distribution services, rather than a
payment for continued use of the program.

===== Installation =====================================
The installation procedure for the HAC Glossary is quite simple. The
package includes a program, "SETUP.EXE", which automates the
entire process. You will need about 500K of available disk space
on the hard drive on which you plan to install the HAC Glossary.
The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
the HAC Glossary.
INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
o Place the HAC Glossary distribution diskette in the
appropriate diskette drive.
o Execute the "SETUP.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, type
the MS-DOS command, "a:win setup".
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the HAC Glossary files to that directory. If you so direct
it, the installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice. It will make
no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your
autoexec.bat or config.sys files.
INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
If you downloaded the HAC Glossary from a BBS (or received it in the
form of archive files from some other source), you will need to perform
the following steps.
o Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this
varies, depending on the form in which you received the package.
In all likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means
that you already have the necessary tools and knowledge to
perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain
directions for this from the same source from which you received
the package.
o Execute the "SETUP.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted
the HAC Glossary package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the
MS-DOS command, "c:\tempdir\win setup".
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the HAC Glossary files to that directory. If you so direct it,
the installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice. It will make
no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your
autoexec.bat or config.sys files.
When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed the HAC Glossary
(C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.
YOU'RE READY TO GO
We hope you enjoy the program.
