===== Installation =====================================
NFL Forecaster's setup program makes NO changes to your autoexec.bat,
config.sys, or win.ini files and it does not change your PATH statement
(or any other environmental variable). Therefore, you can uninstall
Forecaster simply by deleting the various Forecaster files. The setup
program's on-line help contains a complete list of files, their functions
and locations.
Do not install NFL Forecaster for DOS in the same subdirectory with NFL
Forecaster for Windows!
Setup will correctly install Forecaster from one drive and/or directory
to another (that is, for example, from a:\ to c:\forecast or from c:\temp
to c:\sports or from c:\forecast to c:\forecast).
Log on to the drive containing the Forecaster files and at the DOS prompt
type "setup" and press the Enter key to execute Forecaster's Setup
program. A description of each step the setup program takes is contained
in Setup's on-line help. At Setup's main window, press the Help button.
Run Forecaster by logging into the Forecaster directory and typing
"fcast" at the DOS prompt.
===== Warranty =========================================
The author believes that NFL Forecaster is able to do what its
documentation says it can do. Every good-faith effort has been made to
remove "bugs" from the program and to make the user aware of its
limitations. However, it is mathematically impossible to prove a
computer program correct. Therefore, users of NFL Forecaster must accept
this disclaimer of warranty: NFL FORECASTER IS SUPPLIED AS IS. TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE AUTHOR DISCLAIMS ALL
WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND OF FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. NEITHER
THE AUTHOR NOR ANYONE ELSE WHO HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE CREATION,
PRODUCTION, OR DELIVERY OF THIS SOFTWARE SHALL BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY
DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF PROFIT, DATA OR OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR SIMILAR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF
THIS PROGRAM.
