LA Times for OS/2
Copyright (c) 1993 by Steven Gutz
What is LA Times?
-----------------
LA Times is a 32-bit multi-threaded PM application for reading NNTP news via
Internet. This program requires IBM TCP/IP V1.2.1 or later and OS/2 2.0 or
later, and access to an NNTP news server.
LA Times is not free. You have limited license to use this product for
30 days. After this time, you are required to either register the product or
remove it from your system.
Installation (Shareware users)
------------------------------
If you are evaluating the shareware version, you must first create a directory
for LA Times, then you must unzip the latimes ZIP file into a created directory.
To execute the program type "LATIMES<Enter>", or, if you have made an object,
double click on that object.
Installation for Registered Users
---------------------------------
To install the registered version of LA Times, run the INSTALL program from
the release disk. Select the source and destination drive\directory and press
the OK button.
If you are upgrading a previous version of LA Times, you must also run the
INSTALL program. It will create a unique registration key in your LATIMES.INI
file, which must be there for proper uninterrupted operation.
NOTE: If you have added items to your latimes.mac file, backup it up before
installing a new version.
INSTALL takes 1 parameter "-r" which will take an LATIMES executable and
make it a registered copy. So in future all you have to do to upgrade is
dowload a shareware version and run INSTALL -r from you latimes directory.
You can add the LA Times directory to your program PATH statement and/or
create a WPS object for it.
To execute the program type "LATIMES<Enter>", or, if you have made an object,
double click on that object.
Bugs and Corrections

See the help file revision history for details on bugs fixed and known.
If you find what you think is a program bug, please contact me (see below) as
soon as possible, with a reasonable explanation of the bug and the set-up that
led to it.
Remember use the -l command-line option to produce a LATIMES.LOG file if
possible. This will make fixing the bug much easier.
