        ENTERSIF
        A README.SIF file is similar to a README documentation file
        (ASCII text) which many shareware packages use, however, the
        SIF file format is uniform in it's layout which offers
        advantages to shareware authors, BBS systems and shareware
        vendors. The primary focus of a README.SIF file is to
        standardize a minimum amount of documentation information
        about a shareware package which all authors, vendors, BBS
        systems and other can use reliably. The README.SIF file
        created by ENTERSIF and verified with SIFVER contains a unique
        CRC verification number at the end of the file which
        represents an "authenticity check" for compliance with a
        precisely standardized SIF file format. If a file does not
        comply with the README.SIF format, SIFVER will not allow an
        "authentication number" at the end of the file.

        QUIK-INSTALL
        Easy to use, easy to set up installation program. It is
        designed to install applications from floppy disks to a hard
        disk. It combines the most commonly required features but
        remains very small and very easy to use. FEATURES *
        QUIK-INSTALL requires no set-up or configuration files to be
        used. Copy it to your disk and you have a "ready made" install
        program. * Supports multiple disk programs. It can prompt for
        an unlimited number of disks. * Automatically creates the
        sub-directory then copies the files for the program it is
        installing. * Optionally tests for available disk space to
        make sure the user has enough space to install. If space is
        not available it aborts with a warning message informing the
        user of how much space is necessary for installation. *
        Installs programs using a straight file copy or will install
        from executable archives. * The entire program is around 8k in
        size and stores all setup information internally. (It is a
        self-modifying executable.) It has no configuration files yet
        can be modified at any time. After it has been configured it's
        size can be reduced to 6.5k by using a compression program
        such as LZEXE or PKLITE. * Has the option to exit in the
        directory the program has been copied to allowing the user to
        start up immediately. * Displays a customized example prompt
        and a line of text after installation completes. *
        QUIK-INSTALL can optionally "stuff" the keyboard buffer with
        the command users should enter to start your application. Has
        the option to execute the command stuffed in the buffer
        allowing you to start your program automatically or display a
        banner, greeting, warning or anything else. * Color attributes
        can be set.

        DTSEARCH
        Find documents quickly. dtSearch does this by building an
        "index" of your documents that stores location of the words in
        each document. Once you have built an index for a collection
        of documents, searches take only a few seconds. Can also
        search without an index. Search for: * Combinations of words,
        such as "apple and (pear or grape)," * Words located near
        other words, such as "apple within 5 words of pear," * Words
        located in a specific segment of a document, such as "@ADDRESS
        contains oak drive," * Words that match "fuzzy"
        specifications, such as "appl*," which would match apple,
        application, apply, etc. dtSearch gives you unlimited
        searching capacity. One document index can store information
        about up to 15,000 documents, and you can have as many indexes
        as you need. When you do an indexed search, you can search
        multiple indexes by simply checking off the ones you want
        searched. dtSearch requires no "importing" or "conversion" of
        your documents. Automatically detect the word processor format
        for each document. dtSearch can read, search, and index
        documents in the following formats: * ASCII or DOS Text *
        Microsoft Rich Text Format * Microsoft Word * Microsoft Word
        for Windows * Multimate Advantage II * Multimate version 4 *
        WordPerfect 5.0 and 5.1 * WordStar through version 6 *
