Installation:

	To install Igo from this disk to another, type:

	INSTALL SRC DST

	Where SRC is the source disk (for example A:) and DST is the
	destination disk (for example C:).  If you just type INSTALL,
	the program will be copied from the A: disk to the C: disk.
	Install makes a directory called IGO on the destination disk
	and copies all files from the source disk to the IGO directory
	on the destination disk.


Copying and Distribution:

	Igo is copyright 1991 David Fotland.  The go tutorial is
	Copyright 1991 Roger White.  The purpose of Igo is to 
	help as many people as possible learn how to play Go,
	so we encourage you to make and distribute an unlimited
	number of copies of this program, provided you include all
	the files from the original disk without altering them
	in any way.

	If your disk is missing any of the following files you can 
	get a new master disk from Ishi Press International for just
	a shipping and handling charge.

	The following files are included on the distribution disk:

egab19.bmp     grain.bmp      install2.bat   tanb9.bmp      vgaface.bmp    
egab9.bmp      igo.exe        msherc.com     tanw19.bmp     vgago.bmp

On Line Help:

	Each menu option is explained in a help screen.  You can get
	help by pressing F1 at any time except during the go tutorial.
	On the main playing screen, press any key to make the menu
	appear (it is under the Japanese character for go).


Hercules users:

	You must run the driver program "msherc.com" before running
	Igo.  Due to a Microsoft bug, if you do not do so your
	machine may crash when you run Igo.  You have 3 options:

	1) Run Igo by typing "igoherc" instead of "igo".
	Igoherc is a DOS batch file that runs msherc, then Igo.

	2) Type the command "msherc" yourself before the first time
	you run Igo (but you must then run msherc again each time you
	boot your machine).

	3) If you have installed Igo on your hard disk you can add 
	the line "\igo\msherc" to your autoexec.bat file.  This will 
	install the hercules driver every time your machine boots up.
	Note that this will leave less memory available for other
	applications.  Msherc uses about 6 Kbytes of memory.

Memory Usage:

	Igo requires 423 Kbytes of memory to run at all.  The pattern 
	database requires another 21 Kbytes (444 Kb total).  Additional 
	memory is used for the graphic bitmaps, but these are not 
	required for proper program operation.  You can use the "chkdsk"
	or "mem" (DOS 5.0) command to see how much available memory you 
	have on your machine.  If you don't have enough memory available
	check your autoexec.bat file and config.sys file for drivers and
	TSR (terminate and stay resident) programs that you don't need. 
 	Be sure to back up your autoexec.bat and config.sys files before
 	you make any changes.


Microsoft Windows 3.0:

	A graphic icon is provided for Windows 3.0 users called igo.ico.
	To install the program for operation under Windows: from program
	manager select File, New.  Select "Program Item" and push
	the OK button.  Enter the name of the program "Igo", and the path
	name "c:\igo\igo.exe" then select "Change Icon".  Enter the file
	name "c:\igo\igo.ico" as the icon file name.  Push the OK
	buttons.  The program icon now appears as a small go board in the
	program group that was selected.

	If you have VGA graphics and are an advanced user you can
	improve the graphic performance by creating a pif and turning
	off "monitor ports" in the advanced screen.  (See the "More About
	Applications" chapter in the Windows manual for details.)  Igo does
 	not use EMS, XMS, or HMA, and does not require "Retain video memory". 

Disk usage:

	If you are short on disk space you might be able to delete some
	files to save space.  If you will not be using VGA mode you can
	delete the VGA graphic files (GRAIN.BMP and VGA*.BMP).  If you
	will not be using EGA you can delete the EGA graphic files
	(EGA*.BMP).  If you will not be using Tandy graphics you can
	delete the tandy graphic files (TAN*.BMP).  If you will not be
	using Hercules graphics you can delete MSHERC.COM.  If you do not need
	the go rules tutorial you can delete the file GO.RUL.

	If you delete files off your hard disk be sure you save the
	original disk since you must copy all the files if you make 
	copies for other people.
