║ INSTALLING Compu-Chef ║
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
You may simply copy all of the files onto a hard or floppy disk if
you are installing this for the first time. If you have a previous
version, or you just want to use the automatic installation, use
one of the following batch files.
For HARD DRIVE use, type HINSTALL C: (if C is your hard drive).
For FLOP DRIVE use, type FINSTALL B: (if B is your floppy drive).
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ RUNNING Compu-Chef ║

** When entering recipes like side dishes, and it would go well with
say chicken, add an ingredient -> 'serve with chicken'.
This way, if we want to know what would go well with chicken,
we do a find on 'serve with chicken' !
** When entering ingredients, always put the main ingredient name first.
If you are entering DICED ONIONS, enter it ONIONS - DICED. This
way CC can find all recipes with any kind of onions.
** When entering ingredients, if you hit enter in the empty field, a
handy pick-list of ingredients will appear. This list is helpful
to see how you entered a previos ingredient (eg EGGS or EGG) .
>> USE THE LETTER KEYS IN PICK-LISTS TO MOVE AROUND QUICKLY <<
** Look at the Sample.Txt file if you wish to import recipe files
with no certain format. You can NOT just import any ASCII file
you happen to pull off a bulletin board and import it, it must be
formatted in the same way as the sample file is. Compu-Chef will
be able to import recipes from many other cooking programs auto-
matically, so send in the REGISTRATION, to get the latest version!
** You don't have to enter Tbsp, tsp, or cup for these 3 unit's of
measurement, you can enter T, t, and c respectively, and Compu-Chef
will automatically covert to Tbsp, tsp, or cup. This is for both
importing and while entering a recipe.
** You can clean out and delete your entire recipe file by typing:
CC CLEAN **WARNING** This will permanently delete all
recipe information - so be sure.
