HERE 1.0 Beta 5
DESCRIPTION
Here is a freeware program that allows you to easily post your
ever-changing dynamic PPP or SLIP Internet address to a finger
account, thereby allowing others to look up your current Internet
address and contact you.
Here also includes a finger client to allow you to easily check
the PPP or SLIP address postings of other Here users.
Since other users will now be able to locate your current
address, you will be able to use talk servers such as WinTalk;
FTP servers such as WinQV/Net, Serv-U, and WFTPD; and HTTP
servers such as HTTPD and ZB Server.
MINIMUM HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
Here is available in two compilations, one for Win16 and one for
Win32. Both compilations require an IBM compatible PC with a
386+ microprocessor and Winsock 1.1+. The Win16 version requires
Windows 3.1+ and the Win32 version requires Windows 95, NT, or
3.1 with Win32s.
VERSION AND DOWNLOAD INFORMATION
The latest version of Here is 1.0 Beta 5, which has the following
changes from the previous version:
╖ Fixed Win32 version so only one instance of Here will run at
a time. Calling Here when an instance is already running just
switches to the already running instance.
╖ Eliminated double error messages.
The latest version can be downloaded from the Here Home Page:
http://www-scf.usc.edu/~ebeers/here
or TUCOWS (The Ultimate Collection of Winsock Software:
http://www.tucows.com/softtool.html#here
or Winsock-L:
ftp://papa.indstate.edu/winsock-l/finger/
INSTALLATION
After unzipping the archive, you will have six files:
here16.exe
here32.exe
here.hlp
here.wri
here.txt
file_id.diz
Create a new directory (for example, c:\here) and copy all of the
files into it. Then add a Here Program Item to one of your
Program Manager groups.
File here16.exe is the Win16 version for Windows 3.1 and
here32.exe is the Win32 compilation for Windows 95 and NT. You
can, of course, delete one of these two files if you will only be
using one of them.
HELP
The online help feature has complete directions for using Here.
If you would like to review the help file before starting Here,
just click on the file here.hlp from inside the Windows File
Manager. You can browse through the help file sequentially from
beginning to end by using the browse buttons.
