- HSIM is provided in a self extracting file of the format EXPORT.EXE

- If HSIM was down loaded from a computer bulletin board it may also
- be compressed and placed in a .ZIP .ARC or similar file. Place the
- compressed file in a convenient directory on your hard disk drive
- other than the root directory. Decompress the down loaded file
- using appropriate procedures for your system.

- If you are installing HSIM from a distribution diskette it is
- installed as follows: Place the installation diskette in an
- available drive which will usually be either "A" or "B". Select the
- drive in which the diskette is placed by entering: "A:" and press
- the enter key. (On some machines the Enter key may also be labeled
- <Return>.) Then use the install program to build HSIM.
-
- To install HSIM type "INSTALL" followed by a space and the letter of
- the drive on which the program is to be installed. As this will
- usually be "C" drive it will be so assumed for the rest of this
