Installation Notes:
-------------------
To install ClipMate, just copy all of the
Distribution Files to the directory of your
choice. It doesn't need to be in the path, and
there are no funny environment variables to set.
For the lack of anything better, create
\windows\clipmate, and put the files there.
Create an icon in the program manager with a
Command Line that points to ClipMate.
For example:
C:\windows\clipmate\clipmate.exe
Effect on Your System:
----------------------
The first time that you run ClipMate, it will
create \windows\clipmate.ini. WIN.INI is NOT
altered in any way, nor are any of your other
system files.
See CLIPMATE.INI in the on-line help.
ClipMate will create and save the clipboard data
into DEFAULT.CLM, or another .CLM file that you
specify.
De-Installation Notes:
----------------------
These instructions are included in the event that you determine that
ClipMate does not meet your needs, and therefore should be removed
from your system.
Before deleting ClipMate, you should review the contents of
the OVERVIEW screen in the on-line help. If you have put ClipMate through
a proper evaluation, then everything on that screen should be familiar to
you. If this is not the case, then you may want to spend some more time
evaluating ClipMate.
In the event that you wish to remove ClipMate from your system,
erase the following files:

Revision History:
-----------------
v1.154 (9/8/93)
Fixed intermittent problem with Magnification Window Sizing.
Manual Glue items are now titled << Manual Glue >> as they
are created, rather than <<CONCAT>>. CONCAT was a carry-over
from pre 1.5 versions.
v1.153 (9/1/93)
Minor enhancement to Find, Find Next: They now search the
title of a clip item as well as the clip item itself.
Bug fix - under 1.152, ClipMate stopped listening to the Clipboard
when you opened another file.
Bug fix - Find, Find Next caused GPF if there were any Clip Items
of zero length.
v1.152 (8/9/92)
Minor change to Magnification Window. Sometimes it came up blank
when opened. This is now fixed. The magnification window now
remembers its position, even if it is not re-sized.
Documentation Change: Re-name of feature from Pro-Active Glue to
Auto-Glue.
v1.15 (8/6/92)
Major enhancements include printing, proacive "Glue Mode", fixed font
in Magnification Window, Auto Update for editing in Magnification
Window, smarter Titles, smarter Wrapping in Magnification Window,
fix for the "shutdown bug", and a fix for the "WIN31 Startup Bug".
v1.14 (3/07/92)
Fine tuning of 8515 fonts - used on some XGA systems.
Included info on BONUS utilities.
v1.12 (3/02/92)
Fix for 8514 fonts. Window didn't size correctly when 8514 fonts
were used in some 800x600 SVGA modes.
ASP logo fixed to diaplay properly on monochrome screens.
Magnification Window used to ignore manual edit changes when the
"Wrap Text?" checkbox was clicked. This is now fixed.
v1.11 (2/13/92)
Documentation and screens updated to reflect author membership
in the ASP. I started using the (TM) thing. CLMHYPE.TXT has
been replaced by CLMVEND.TXT.
v1.10 (2/6/92)
Version 1.10 adds several enhancements to the Magnification Window.
There is also a help button in the Config Dialog.
v1.05 (1/22/92)
Find and FindNext didn't actually put anything on the Clipboard.
Now they do!
v1.04 (1/21/92)
On some XGA systems, the system font was so wide that it caused the
menu to wrap, which caused some of the controls to be hidden. The
wide font is now detected, and the window is sized accordingly.
v1.03 (1/07/92)
Fixed problem with Concatenate:
Bug in Windows causes negative values to sometimes be returned for
MAXAVAIL, which checks to see if there is enough contiguous free
memory to complete the concatenation. Negative values are now ignored.
v1.02 (1/06/92)
Fixed RunTime error 204 - occurred when editing Magnification Window,
in the event that the user deletes the item that is being edited.
v1.01 (1/02/92)
Minor bug fixes:
Problem with memory allocation.
Problem switching to an empty list - contents of other list were shown.
v1.0 (12/23/91) is the initial release
.CLM files created with versions prior to 0.84 beta are invalid, and should
be discarded. You beta-testers know who you are!
