*********
* SETUP *
*********
This program is able to install files from a floppy to your hard disk and create groups and icons in your
Program Manager. It create his own log install file.
***********
* UNSETUP *
***********
This program use the log file of Setup to uninstall the copied files and created directory.
Nota :
All the source files are provided in Delphi 1.0 version for Setup and Unsetup.
******************
* How to install *
******************
Just lauch SETUP.EXE from A: or from C: (if you want to modify the source drive edit SETUP.INS file
and modifiy the letter on the ODSK parameter in [ORIGIN] section)
This program copies all the files onto your hard disk (you can specify the path) and creates a
SETUP.GRP group in your program manager. It creates a UNSETUP.INS file, this is the log of installation.
I have given you all the source files so you can edit and modify as you want.
If you add any facilities please write to me on Compuserve (ID 100621,3247).
********************
* How to uninstall *
********************
Just lauch UNSETUP.EXE on the directory you install SETUP.
UNSETUP read the log file and deletes files and directory.
I have given you all the source files so you can edit and modify as you want.
If you add any facilities please write to me on Compuserve (ID 100621,3247).
*********************
* Future Improvment *
*********************
I want to check the possibility to have more than one floppy for source and further expand compress files.
Maybe modifiy the background with a blue one like on a Microsoft setup (why not ? ...) with maximized window
