Getting Started
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To set up YUMB you copy the YUMB.EXE to the directory you
want to run it from. The first time you run YUMB it will
automatically create the support files that it needs to run.
These files will include YUMB.DTA which contains the data
YUMB.KEY wich must be in same directory .
Once you run YUMB for the first time you can then call it
from anywhere as long as it resides in your PATH. Yumb will find
its support files automatically.
It is recommended that you have ANSI.SYS installed from your
CONFIG.SYS file at boot time .
This is all there is to it! I am from the school of thought that
believes and operates as follows ...
* UNZIP the thing
* Find the '.EXE' file
* Run it!
* When all else fails, read the '.DOC's (a really good program
shouldn't force you to do this step just to run!)
If you are like me then you won't even read this documentation
unless you run into problems or have got the thing running and
wonder if it does anything else that you haven't already discovered.
