- Introduction
- --------------
-
- This is an application that runs under Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 95 and
- allows you to view Registration Entries (.reg) files. You can also
- choose to merge selected keys or branches into the Windows Registry.
- This tool is primarily for software developers and powerusers because
- it allows you to modify the Windows Registry -- be extremely cautious
- when doing this and always make a backup.
-
- This application is freeware. You can distribute any version of this
- application to individuals and to bulletin boards, as long as you
- distribute all of the files in their original format. (In fact, we
- encourage it because that is the only way that people find out about
- our work.)
-
- If you decide that you enjoy the program and wish to continue using it,
- you are encouraged to mail in a registration fee.
-
- Please see Products.TXT for more information on registering this
- application and for details on other products that are available
- from Perpetual Motion Software.

- Installation
- --------------
-
- 1. Right-click on the RegView.inf file and select the Install command.
-
- 2. Right-click on the RegView.reg file and select the Merge command.
- This adds an entry to your registry so that you can right-click on
- any .reg file and select a View command to open it with RegView.
-
- 3. You can then create a shortcut to regview.exe in your Startup
- group or on your desktop, wherever.
-
- Not all of the files are installed on your computer. You should keep them
- in case you need to refer to the .txt files or need to reinstall the
- application. (You can keep them either on the distribution media they
- came on or you can copy them to your computer yourself.)

- It is very slow when reading very large .reg files (e.g., over 1M).
- Reading in very large files (over 1M) takes a very long time.
