INTRODUCTION
------------------
Congradulations on picking up lord life. I hope it does everything you
could ever ask an IGM to to, and I hope it works with your bbs
system!
Note: This version of Lord Life is still being enhanced...
I have taken precautions to make this version bug free...
It SHOULD be free of errors but may not be. NO WARRANTIES are
given for this product...A registration form is included...
see lifereg.txt...
Lord life should be fully multi-node compatable. It uses strict
file locking routines.
Note:Life should be immediatly compatable with whatever lord is.
Life uses the path to drop file provided by lord's node.1 file,
if you allow it...otherwise it only uses info.1...

1.0 INSTALLATION <------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Be sure you unzipped the file: LIFE.ZIP
Simply run: lifecfg.exe
-Then it should detect that you have not installed
then it will let you install. Once your done (Q)uit
the installer and that's it!
-Give it the paths..with a backslash at the end as it
asks for...answer a couple other quick questions
and thats it!...It will then be installed.
Note: If you have already placed it in the 3rdparty.def
from an earlier version hit 'N' for no when it asks
if it should add itself to the 3rdparty.dat
