│ 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 │
│ originators of VENDINFO: │

New features, enhancements and bug fixes
----------------------------------------
(see the on-line help for a complete list)
Version 2.03 :
Kith and Kin was gradually eating up system resources, leading to
insufficient memory after long sessions. This has been fixed.
The maximum number of generations for Descendant and Ancestral Tree
prints has been increased to 80.
An overlap occurred in Descendant and Ancestral Tree prints where a
person had an empty record. This has been fixed.
Print setup no longer changes the system default. Any changes are local
to the current K&K session.
It is no longer possible to make the a single person appear more than
once as a child of a single family. Similarly for marriages in Person
Data.
You can now specify a Person or Family code in the Range|From field of a
Person or Family Details print which does not exist. Kith and Kin will
skip to the next valid code.
Getting Started and Other Products added to the Help menu.

===== Installation =====================================
Installation
------------
Copy all files from the release disk into a new directory (eg. KITHKIN)
on your hard disk.
Run KITHKIN.EXE from the File Manager or create a new program item in
the Program Manager and double click on the Kith and Kin icon. You can
launch Kith and Kin from a Tree File (.TRE) if you have associated .TRE
files with KITHKIN.EXE in the File Manager. The program (.EXE), help
(.HLP) and options (.OPT) files must all reside in the same directory.
To get you off to a flying start using Kith and Kin, read the help topic
"Getting Started". This will lead you through the basics.
The file BWCC.DLL should reside in either the KITHKIN or WINDOWS\SYSTEM
directories or in another directory in your PATH. Since it is a common
DLL you may already have it on your system in which case you need only
one copy available.
