INSTALLING ANARCHY!
------------------
Installing Anarchy! is easy, but the specific process will vary depending
on how you received your copy of Anarchy!. Two examples are given below. The
first is for copying from a floppy disk or CD-ROM. The second is for a ZIP
file downloaded from a bulletin board system (BBS).
--------------------------
From a diskette or CD-ROM:
--------------------------
First, create a directory for the Anarchy! files:
Using the MS-DOS Prompt Using File Manager
----------------------- ------------------
Type MD\ANARCHY Click on the root directory (C:\)
Press [Enter] Click on File
Click on Create Directory
Type Anarchy
Press [Enter]
Next, copy the Anarchy! files to the newly created directory.
Using the MS-DOS Prompt Using File Manager
----------------------- ------------------
C: [ENTER] Make sure you have two windows visible in File

holding it down click on the last file in
the source directory. All files in that
directory will now be highlighted.
Click again on any of the highlighted files
but DO NOT RELEASE THE MOUSE BUTTON. You
can now "drag" the files to the ANARCHY
directory in the other window by moving
the mouse cursor to the ANARCHY directory.
Once the mouse cursor is over the ANARCHY
directory, release the mouse button. This
will copy all the highlighted files to the
ANARCHY directory.
Finally, install the Anarchy! icon on your Program Manager display.

mouse, switch to the program ANARCHY directory. DO NOT RELEASE THE MOUSE

Program Item
[OK]
Command Line is:
C:\ANARCHY\ANARCHY.EXE
Then click on [OK]. (You can
leave the other lines empty)
------------------
From a ZIP'd file:
------------------
For the novice user, it's easiest to "unzip" and install Anarchy! from the
MS-DOS prompt (if you are an experienced user, you probably aren't reading
these instructions, anyway, so we're going to ignore you for the time being).
Please note that un-Zipping a file requires a copy of PKUNZIP.EXE, which is
available on virtually all bulletin boards and online services such as Genie
and CompuServe.
First, create a directory for the Anarchy! files. At the MS-DOS prompt, type
"MD\ANARCHY" (without the quote marks), and press [Enter]. Next, switch to
this new ANARCHY directory by typing "CD\ANARCHY" and pressing [Enter].
Next, unzip ANARCHY.ZIP into the newly created directory. As an example, if
the ANARCHY.ZIP file is in the directory C:\DOWNLOAD, then type:
PKUNZIP C:\DOWNLOAD\ANARCHY.ZIP
Assuming you are in ANARCHY directory, all the Anarchy! files will be unzipped
there (If that's not where you are, no telling where they will end up. Make
sure you type CD\ANARCHY before this step).
(By the way, once you have unzipped Anarchy! you can delete the ANARCHY.ZIP
file if you want. You won't be needing it anymore.)
Now that the Anarchy! files are properly located on your computer, all you
need to do is install the Anarchy! icon on your Program Manager display.
Return to Windows and:

ABOUT VBRUN300.DLL
------------------
All MS Visual Basic 3.0 programs require the use of a library file called
VBRUN300.DLL. This includes Anarchy!. Depending on how you received this
copy of Anarchy! you may or may not have received VBRUN300.DLL.
*** Note that Windows 95 comes with VBRUN300.DLL already installed ***
If you DID receive VBRUN300.DLL with Anarchy!:
---------------------------------------------
You may not need it. Check your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory to see if a copy
is already there. If so, then you can delete the copy that came with Anarchy!.
If not, you need VBRUN300.DLL either in that directory or in the ANARCHY
directory. We recommend that you place it in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory
so that all programs can share it, thus meaning you only need one copy on
your computer.
If you DID NOT receive VBRUN300.DLL with Anarchy!:
-------------------------------------------------
You may not need it. Check your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory to see if a copy
is already there. If so, then you are set -- you don't need another copy.
On the other hand, if there is NOT a copy already on your system then
you need to get a copy (by the way, we apologize for not including it, but
most BBS's and information services prefer that we don't. Otherwise,
there would be thousands of duplicate copies of this file included with
other programs, taking up disk space better used for other things). Like
PKUNZIP, copies are available free on most BBS's and information services
like CompuServe and Genie. If you got Anarchy! off a CD-ROM, there is probably
a copy available somewhere on that CD.
REGISTERING ANARCHY!
-------------------
Shareware is a means of distributing software. Under the shareware concept,
software may be freely copied and passed along to others, or distributed
through bulletin board systems or national networks.
As a recipient of a shareware program, you may use the software for a short
trial period to determine if it meets your needs. If the software is not
suitable, then you can discard it. If you decide to use it, you must pay by
registering. When you register a Cascoly shareware program, you receive:
* A copy of the latest version of the program.
* Additional FREE puzzles
* A puzzle builder
* Reduced prices on other Cascoly puzzle programs.
* A free introductory account on CompuServe including a private User
ID number and password, $15 introductory usage credit, and a
complimentary subscription to CompuServe Magazine, - a $30 value!
* A minimum of 90 days online support via CompuServe or by
telephone. Support by mail is also available, if accompanied
by a SASE.
For a registration form, click on "Display Order Form" on the Registration
Information Screen.
WINDOWS 95
----------
Version 2.00 of Anarchy was developed and tested under Windows 95, so you
should experience no compatability problems. Please note the following
changes to the above instructions:
- Instead of File Manager, under Windows 95 you may wish to use Windows
Explorer (We prefer File Manager!). Since Explorer doesn't let you open
two Windows at once, though, you will have to run two copies of Explorer
at once.
- Instead of Program Manager, you will be installing Anarchy on to the
Task Bar. Click on Start, then Settings, then Task Bar, then Start
Menu Programs to do this.
- Windows 95 comes with VBRUN300.DLL already installed, so you won't need
another copy for Anarchy.
