===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
RHYME FINDER
This program is an abbreviated version of the POEM WRITER, without the
word processor, that allows a poem writer to access a rhyming dictionary
by use of a hot key from a multi-tasking program (such as MicroSoft
Windows or an IBM OS2) word processor. (It is also directly available
from DOS, but that is rather inconvenient.)
A separate program, RIMEINST.EXE, also accessible from the RHYME FINDER
menu box, provides a brief poetry tutor, detailed program installation
and operations instructions, and how to Register this SHAREWARE program.
Copy all program files to a separate directory, ie/ POETRY.
After starting your MicroSoft Windows or OS2 multi-tasking program, load
RIMEFIND.EXE, then load your word processor and hot key to the
RIMEFIND.EXE program when you need to find a rhyme. Be sure to eXit
the RIMEFIND.EXE program prior to exiting your multi-tasking program.

===== Installation =====================================
The POEM WRITER program contains the following required files:
RIMEFIND.EXE The main program
RIMEINST.EXE The instruction and tutoring program
USER.ID User identification
xx.1 15 single rhyme files, ie/ a.1, ah.1, at.1, etc.
xx.2 and xx.3 30 additional double and triple rhyme files
(requires registration and ordering)
ReadMe files, etc., are not required for operation of the POEM WRITER.
To install copy all of the above files to the directory of your choice,
ie/ C:\POETRY. (Use of a hard disk is not required for the Unregistered
Shareware version, but makes rhyme file recovery much faster.)
To start the RHYME FINDER program start your Windows or IBM OS2
multi-tasking program, load/start RIMEFIND.EXE, then load your
multi-tasking word processor and hot key to the RHYME FINDER whenever
you need to find a rhyme.
A separate instruction and tutoring program, RIMEINST.EXE, may be
reached either before starting the RHYME FINDER by typing RIMEINST and
pressing Enter, or from within the RHYME FINDER program by selection of
Instructions from the Menu box.
The POEM WRITER program is a single line editor word processor, designed
for use in writing rhyming poems whose length is usually substantially
less than a normal page width. It does not word wrap, but does have a
number of aid to poem writing, including a variable width editing
screen, a rhyming dictionary, and various tools such as a method to
remember selected rhymes while further editing and a list of the metric
length of the lines in the stanzas in your poem.
If you would prefer to use your own word processor, and if you have an
ability to "hot key" change from one program to another, (such as is
available in the use of MicroSoft Windows or IBM OS2) then you may wish
to order the companion program, RHYME FINDER. This program uses the
same rhyme files and search system as the POEM WRITER, but does not
include a word processor and the special tools other than the dictionary.
To operate it you first load the RHYME FINDER program, then you load
your word processor and start writing. When you need a rhyme you simply
press the hot key(s) to switch to the RHYME FINDER, and follow the same
proceedure that is used in finding rhymes in the POEM WRITER.
For more information see ORDERING by going to Instructions from the menu
within either the POEM WRITER or RHYME FINDER program.
