│ This is a VENDINFO Product Information Record │
│ │
│ This record is a means of conveying information about a software │
│ product from the author to distributors and users. It contains a │
│ normal, "human-readable" section (you're reading it now), followed │
│ by a compressed data record. The data record contains a great │
│ deal of information in a form useable by automated tools. This │
│ allows BBSes, disk vendors, etc. to test automatically for │
│ permission to distribute, and to automatically extract product │
│ information for use in BBS files databases, vendor catalogs, etc. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO file standard is published and is freely useable. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO toolset includes a free end-user viewer, processing │
│ tools for use by distributors (BBSes, shareware disk vendors, │
│ etc.), and the editor used by author/publishers to produce these │
│ records. These tools are either free or very-low cost shareware. │

===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
This package contains the MakeDemo(TM) Presenter System (Version 5), by
WindhamWoods Publishing. This document contains only a brief
description of the package and its features, along with instructions for
its installation. Quite detailed documentation is included in the
package, but it is in archived form, and is more easily read after
installation.
We thank you for the opportunity to show off MakeDemo. Now you can
present information very visually with up to 2000 screens (450 bytes
typical) with menus, visual and sound effects, and mouse support on
virtually any PC or clone. Create great presentations for field sales or
downloading from BBSs. Try some C-A-I lessons. Distribute a MakeDemo
created overview along with your software. Prototype a new idea. Create
a catalog on disk. Simulate other software. Use MakeDemo's very visual
and intuitive tools. Import captured screens from other working
software, import ASCII text files in 25 line chunks, import from other
MakeDemo created files in their entirety or just individual screens.
Bind creations into branded single .EXE files.
MakeDemo is a shareware program. This evaluation version includes all
features of the program, and is not crippled in any way. You may use it
for your own use without charge. However, if you distribute any screen
created in part or in whole with MakeDemo, you are required to pay for
the program (see REGISTER.DOC for more details). Any fee you may have
paid to others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation
version was a fee for their copying and distribution services, rather
than a payment for continued use of the program.

===== Installation =====================================
MakeDemo is distributed in a number of archives each capable of creating
sub-directories of a MakeDemo directory and then unpacking the files
accordingly. After unpacking, to quickly see what MakeDemo can do for
you, run the various BAT files in the EXAM sub-directory.
IMPORTANT NOTE: YOUR being able to run these BAT files depends upon YOUR
unpacking as described below.
CONVENTION: Replace the wildcard '?' with the letter of the actual
MakeDemo archive when following instructions below.
--------------------------- ZIPped files --------------------
Using the following syntax with the "-d" switch
PKUNZIP -d MDEM5?.ZIP C:\MDEMO5
Including the '-d' switch forces PKUNZIP to automatically create the
structure below the C:\MDEMO5, or whatever, directory you define. Define
something; otherwise MakeDemo unpacks to your current directory.
NOTE: MakeDemo does not come with an unzip utility; rather this
command uses your system PATH to find your copy of PKUNZIP.
--------------- Self extracting Archives - LHArched -------------------
These files automatically build the sub-directory structure.
MDEM5? C:\MDEMO5
The unpacking utility is part of the EXE file. Here again, for the same
reasons given above, its best to include the target directory.
------------------------ Time to Take a Look See --------------------
The C:\MDEMO5 directory, or whatever you have choosen, contains those
files stricktly used in creating presentations. The unpacking process
divides up the remaining files into three sub-directories:
EXAM Example MakeDemo creations and Bat files for setting them up
DOCS Registration form, history, manual addendum, etc.
DIZ This file, FILE_ID.DIZ, vendor instructions, etc.
AFTER UNPACKING MDEM5A
Change directory to the EXAM sub-directory of your MakeDemo directory.
There you will find GO_SHOW.BAT file to run. Try it out.
AFTER UNPACKING MDEM5B
Change directory to the EXAM sub-directory of your MakeDemo directory.
There you can run GO_HELP.BAT. What you will see is a 140 plus screen
presentation created with MakeDemo and available on-line from within
MDEMO at the press of F1. Seen here as a stand alone presentation, it
explains MakeDemo's ins and outs and can be used as a tutorial on how to
create a presentation. For hard copy, print screens as needed. This IS
the 'manual' supplied in the shareware version of MakeDemo.
REGISTERED USERS RECEIVE a 100 plus page
PRINTED MANUAL that complements this help file.
AFTER UNPACKING MDEM5C
New with version 5 is a stripped down runtime of MakeDemo called
MLITE.EXE. Weighing in at a little over 11 kBytes, it's ideal for a
front end to other programs. For example, running GO_MDEMO.BAT from the
EXAM sub-directory produces a five screen "shareware" message that
prefixes MDEMO. And when completed, it doesn't tie up memory
indefinately that could be put to better use.
------------------------ In Conclusion -----------------------------
There you have it. We thank you for taking a look at MakeDemo and we
look forward to your becoming a satisfied REGISTERED USER.
If you like what you've seen, be sure to include the MakeDemo directory
in your system PATH, so as to (once you've rebooted your system) access
the power of MakeDemo from any other directory in your system.
You've undoubtedly noticed that most of the boiler plate that goes with
this distribution is located in and under the DIZ sub-directory. Once
you've looked at what's there, you might want to delete some of it.
----------------- Organization of the Archives ------------------
Presently, there are up to five archives that constitute the
MakeDemo distribution. The following is a brief description of
each.
MDEM5A The MakeDemo Presenter 75 kB approx.
Contains the necessary files to evaluate a
presentation of the features of the MakeDemo
presenter, MSHOW.EXE, and this readme file.
MDEM5B The MakeDemo Documentation 85 kB approx.
Contains MakeDemo's "help" facility of about 140
screens, created with MakeDemo. Registered Users
receive a 100+ page printed MakeDemo manual.
MDEM5C The MakeDemo Utilities 110 kB approx.
Contains MDEMO.EXE for creating applications, the
legalese for distributing MakeDemo, and the
ancillary utilities such as the screen capture
utility for those who, in addition to creating
something from scratch, wish to "present" their own
software.
MDEM5D The MakeDemo Data Keeper 90 kB approx.
Contains database runtime module, MBASE.EXE, as well
To Be as fully functioning example applications such as a
Released wedding planner, a library organizer for videos,
Early '94 CDs, books, a day timer, and a lawncare system for
small business.
MDEM5E The MakeDemo Installer 40 kB approx.
Contains the Install Runtime module, MINSTALL.EXE,
To Be as well as the install program unbound that we
Released include with our own distribution of MakeDemo
Early '94 products.
--------------------- Some Things Technical ---------------------
Presentations run on an IBM or compatible PC, XT, AT, 386, or 486
machine with 125 kBytes RAM with either a monochrome or color display.
For best operation the "CONFIG.SYS" file should contain the following
two lines: FILES=10 (minimum) and BUFFERS=10.
Some compatible computers might pose a problem or two. If you're using
a monochrome monitor and the display goes blank, but bright, the chances
are that your computer is equipped with a color card. You can correct
this confusion on the part of WWP programs by typing, at the DOS prompt,
MODE MONO or MODE BW80 and then proceed as you normally would.
MakeDemo makes extensive use of the arrow keys that on some keyboards
are part of the numeric keypad. If you experience problems, be sure
that "NumLock" is off and/or that you use the correct keypad keys.
---------------------------- Testimonials -----------------------
I recommend MakeDemo highly. I developed a 600+ screen presentation to
show all our services and capabilities. And customer suport is great.
Wilf G.

As a Value Added Retailer salesperson, MakeDemo has given me the power
to create a great presentation that all fits on a 360 k floppy.
Glen M.

Not being a professional programmer, I was able to use MakeDemo to put a
together 200+ screen presentation. I like the versatility in the menuing
I can do.
Neal G.

I write custom database apps in Magic and I like using high intensity
background colors. I like the response I get from WWP making this
possible. I love MakeDemo.

I like the customer service I get. Warren has added a number of first
class effects that make my presentation very professional.

SITE LICENSE
What is a site license? A site license is an inexpensive way for more
than one person to legally use one copy of a program on more than one
computer at a time. Site licenses are designed for companies, offices
or workgroups where more than one person in the organization needs to
use a product, but does not necessarily need additional manuals or disks.
Site
Licensing enables companies, departments, government agencies, etc., to
equip their personnel with the tools they need at a minimal cost.
Here's the gist of how it works: The company purchasing a site license
(the licensee) provides a single point of contact for shipping,
technical support, upgrades, etc., and we (the licensor) provide a
"golden master" of the diskettes.
