- ===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
-
- This package contains Handy Stuff(TM)
- (Version 2.2), by Practical Systems. This document contains
- only a brief description of the package and its features, along
- with instructions for its installation. Quite detailed documentation
- is included in the package, but it is in archived form, and is more
- easily read after installation.
-
- Handy Stuff is a shareware program. This evaluation version includes
- all features of the program, and is not crippled in any way. You may
- use it for up to 30 days, without charge. If you like the
- program, and wish to continue its use after
- this evaluation period, you are required to pay for the program (look
- in the HELP file for more details). Any fee you may have
- paid to others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation
- version was a fee for their copying and distribution services, rather
- than a payment for continued use of the program.

- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- The installation procedure for Handy Stuff is quite simple. The
- package includes a program, "SETUP.EXE", which automates the
- entire process. You will need about 5mb of available disk space
- on the hard drive on which you plan to install Handy Stuff.
-
- The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
- Handy Stuff.
-
- INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
-
- To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
-
- o Place Handy Stuff distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the
- appropriate diskette drive.
-
- o In Windows 3.1 program manager, select "File" and then "Run".
- In Win 95, select "Start" then "Run".
- Execute the "SETUP.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
- For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, type
- "a:setup".
-
- o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
- You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
- are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
- program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
- the Handy Stuff files to that directory. If you received <product>
- on two diskettes, you will need to insert Disk 2 in the diskette
- drive when asked to do so. If you so direct it, the installation
- program will install executable programs and documentation in
- other directories of your choice. It will make no other changes;
- specifically, it will not modify your autoexec.bat or config.sys
- files.
-
-
- INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
-
- If you downloaded Handy Stuff from a BBS (or received it in the form of
- archive files from some other source), you will need to perform the
- following steps.
-
- o Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
- directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this
- varies, depending on the form in which you received the package.
- In all likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means
- that you already have the necessary tools and knowledge to
- perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain
- directions for this from the same source from which you received
- the package.
-
- o From Windows 3.1 Program Manager, select "File" and then "run".
- From Win 95, select "Start", then "run".
- Execute the "SETUP.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
- example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted
- the Handy Stuff package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the
- command, "c:\tempdir\setup".
-
- o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
- You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
- are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
- program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
- the Handy Stuff files to that directory. If you so direct it, the
- installation program will install executable programs and
- documentation in other directories of your choice. It will make
- no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your
- autoexec.bat or config.sys files.
-
- When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
- delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed Handy Stuff
- (C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.
-
- YOU'RE READY TO GO
-
- Once you've completed the installation, you should consult the Help file
- for a discussion and examples of operation for each area of Handy Stuff.
- The file is not large and will save you some time in the long run.
-
- Thank you, and have fun.
