- ROUTE1 for Microsoft Windows 3.x release 2.1a
- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-
- This is a short text file just to get you started. There is a Help
- file included with Route1 that explains all of its features, and how to use
- them. I strongly recommend looking at the help file, so that you can take
- full advantage of Route1. It explains how to access submenus, how to create
- scripts, and much more. It replaces the text file that came with earlier
- versions of Route1, because the text file was getting too long. This help
- file is accessible through Route1 by pressing [?] on any menu or dialog box.

-
- Select 'Run...' from Program Manager's 'File' menu, and type:

- where d: is the disk drive where the Route1 installation disk is.
-
- >If you are a previous user of Route1:
-

-
- Copy all 70 Route1 files to their own directory. It takes a

- the one in the Route1 directory.
-
- >To setup Route1:

- Add Route1 to a Program Manager or Quick Access group as you normally

- Legal stuff, artistic and scientific excuses, and other ramblings:
-
- First of all, of any harm should come to your system or files while
- Route 1 is installed, I take no responsibility. Don't panic - Route 1 is
- safe . . . as long as you use protection . . .
- Although some of the included icons are derivatives or enhancements
- of commercial program icons, it is not my intention to distribute any material
- that its creator(s) or legal owner(s) would object to. I will immediately
- remove, or alter to their satisfaction, any icon(s) which is brought to my
- attention as proprietary in nature and should not be freely distributed. The
- design, look, and feel of all the different parts of my program is either
- purely of my own invention, or a thorough alteration and combining of what I
- wished many other programs should be. It is also not my intention, to mimic,
- or to lessen the effectiveness of any other software in existence. I wrote
- this program originally for my own use, and am distributing it for other
- people to use strictly for my own satisfaction of making something that
- someone else finds useful, or even necessary.
-
- If you use Route1 for anything more than to take up disk space, you
- are morally obligated to pay for it; just $14.00 gets you FREE technical
- support with Route1, FREE updates, and a clear conscience. (see address below)
- If you are registered, and you find a bug, and I am able to fix it,
- I will do so as quickly as possible, and will send you the fixed version in
- the mail - no charge.
