- ROSEBUD
-
- Thanks for your interest in our product.
-
-
- First Time Use
- --------------
- The product ships with many predefined Reporters to give you many examples
- of how the product works. During the first on-line session, the Collection
- Agent will be collecting news and also test CompuServe's current news
- structure. The first pass can take up to 25 minutes depending on the speed
- of the modem and the current load on the CompuServe network. Future
- sessions will be much faster.
-
-
- Required Disk Space
- -------------------
- To install Rosebud, you must have 12MB of free disk space. Refer below to
- the "Saving Space" section.
-
-
- Rosebud Email Retrieval is Disabled
- -----------------------------------
- Since most users already have a program like WinCIM to retrieve Email and
- we didn't want to force users to use Rosebud's Email interface, we ship
- Rosebud with the feature of retrieving Email disabled. But, Rosebud can
- send mail at any time. To turn on Email retrieval, start the Assignment
- Desk and select the mail icon and click on the Change button. Uncheck the
- box next to "Disable Mail Retrieval" and Rosebud will now gather your
- Email.
-
-
- First Time and NO WinCIM installed
- ----------------------------------
- This product looks for CIS.INI in the CSERVE directory to know how to
- access CompuServe. If you don't have WinCIM installed, you will have to
- setup this CIS.INI for ROSEBUD to be able to access CompuServe. To perform
- this task you need to run the Assignment Desk and select the CompuServe
- icon and click on the change button. Then select the "Edit settings..."
- button and change the session information to reflect your CIS User ID,
- password, Modem, etc. Select Help while on this panel if you need more
- information.

- Rosebud and Windows NT
- ----------------------
- This is a 16-bit application and works fine under Windows NT. But, it will
- not work correctly if you change the default on the option "Run is
- separate memory space". This option should be UNCHECKED.
-
-
- Rosebud and Windows 95
- ----------------------
- This is a 16-bit application and works fine under Windows 95. But, if you
- need to uninstall ROSEBUD, the uninstall utility provided might not erase
- the directories Rosebud created due to the fact Windows 95 places some
- hidden files in the directory structure of Rosebud. You can finish the
- uninstall process by deleting the directories or folders using Explorer.
-
-
- Rosebud and Networks
- --------------------
- You can't install this version of Rosebud on a Network Drive. If you need
