EXTRA INFORMATION
COMPRESS.EXE
SetupBuilder provides the facility to compress files before they are placed
on your installation suite disks. In order to use this facility, the
Microsoft COMPRESS.EXE program is required. This is not supplied with
SetupBuilder, but you will probably already have it as part of Visual Basic
or DOS.
In order for SetupBuilder to use COMPRESS.EXE, COMPRESS.EXE must be in the
SetupBuilder directory, your Windows directory or a directory pointed to by
the PATH statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
PAYMENT FOR SOFTWARE
You can pay for Setup Builder in a number of ways: you can post me a cheque
for the value mentioned on the application main screen to my home address.
Alternatively, you can pay via Compuserve. Compuserve has a facility whereby
shareware authors can register their software. If a piece of software is
registered in the Compuserve database, then an automated payment system is
available.
This provides an easy way to pay for Shareware software, particularly for
overseas users.
To access the Compuserve payment system, GO SWREG. Setup Builder's
registration id is 4153. SWREG will automatically deduct the charge for
Setup Builder from your Compuserve account and transfer it to mine.
MORE INFORMATION
If you require any further information, I can be contacted on
Compuserve ID: Graham Plowman, 100105,536
