~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(c) 1992-1993 by UniKEY Informatica
All rights reserved.
UniQWK is a Off-line Mail Reader for QWK package style. UniQWK is
designed to execute under Windows 3.1. With UniQWK you can process messages
quickly, with access to all Windows 3.1 facilities, in addition to most
commons features of popular DOS Mail reads.
UniQWK 2.0 allows you to use some of the mulimidia Windows 3.1
utilities in your messages. Using UniQWK you may send messages with
sounds recorded by yourself or from .WAV or .MID files. Other features
of the system are automatic saving of NewFiles, processing resuming in the
the case of eventual system crashes, and conversion of special characters
from CP860/850, allowing correct message reading. ANSI messages are
also supported.

About UniQWK:
~~~~~~~~~~~~
UniQWK is not a free software. You can test it for one month. If
you decide to use it, after a trial period, you must get a license.
A license for the use of UniQWK can be obtained by sending a $30.00
(American dollars) registration fee.
Regarding the Shareware registration. There is only one reminder
box just to stimulate you about the registration. This is NOT a crippled
version of the program.
The license fee paid for UniQWK is a one time fee. The
licence legalizes your use of the program and keep you free from the
borring reminder box and taglines. With registration you can change the
tagline, or use no tagline. Licensed users can use future revisions
of UniQWK without aditional fee, and have technical suport if necessary.
If the registration response is good then we'll have
the incentive to keep improving the program. It is very nice to
know that some of you like what we've done, but it's better to
receive some money... Anyway, your comments and suggestions
are greatly appreciated.
Public Domain Disk Vendors and distributors of public domain
and user suported software may not charge a fee for UniQWK itself.
However you may include UniQWK on a diskette for which you charge a
nominal distribution fee. The purchaser of said diskette must be
informed in advance that the fee paid to acquire the diskette
does NOT relieve said purchaser from paying the Registration Fee
for UniQWK.
Operators of electronic bulletin board systems (Sysops) may
post UniQWK for downloading by their users without written permission
only as long as the above conditions are met. A fee may be charged for
access to the BBS as long as no specific fee is charged for downloading
UniQWK files.
BBS Operators (Sysops) can get a special (free!)
license if they post this software for downloading - contact us.
How to Install
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Open the .ZIP packet into any directory. EX: C:\MAIL
- Copy MRPACK.PIF and MRUNPACK.PIF into your Windows directory.
- At your first run, UniQWK will create a working sub-directory
EX: C:\MAIL\UNIWRK. Keep it empty and don't use it for anything else,
UniQWK will erase it.
- Run Windows, if you still are at the old DOS prompt.
- With Program Manager, set UniQWK into any group of your choice
- Run UniQWK.
- You MUST fill configurations menus before reading any .QWK
packet, in order to:
- Set the default directories for upload, download, save files, etc.
- Set the replies options, editor, margins, quote character,
code page, etc.
- Set miscelaneous options.
- Check with PIF Editor, if the .PIF files are correct for your system
and if the compress/uncompress programs of your choice are correct. Check
if the programs can be reached through default path. For more
information, use the Help Facilities.
- Open any .QWK (or the sample .QWK) using the appropriated option on FILE
menu and enjoy it.
- UniQWK doesn't use .NDX files, so you can disable index files
generation (see your BBS configuration) and save your time.
Upgrading from version 1.0 or 1.1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you are upgrading from old versions, you need to replace old files
UNIQWK.EXE, UNIQWK.HLP and BCWTERM.FON by the new ones, and copy the new
UNIQWK.TAG to UniQWK directory. Care must be take with the work directory,
now automaticaly created. Delete UNIQWK.INI from the Windows directory
and run the program. A new initialization file will be created. Don't
