- I think there are still quite a few bugs to be fixed... I ask you
- to contact me as soon as suspicious behaviour is noticed. See the
- section titled 'Support' for methods of doing so.
-
- It should be noted that the installation program is still quite
- unsophisticated. No online help is provided, so some sections of
- the manual (XHOST.DOC) are worth printing out (perhaps via a word
- processor), especially the menu editor section, which requires the
- knowledge of trivial codes.

- Notes on Installation
- ƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒƒ
-
- Installation is still manual. It is recommended that you create an
- XHOST directory for the data files.
-
- All files with an SLC extension must be placed inside your script
- directory (defined in Telix, Alt-O F C), and all other files must
- be copied to your XHost data directory (defined in XHost Setup,
- System, XHost directory).
-
- The following files are in the distribution archive:
-
- Unnecessary files:
-
- FILE_ID.DIZ XHost's description
- README.1ST This file

- Getting help or advice for XHost is most easily done by contacting
- me. You are also encouraged (begged!) to forward bug reports and
- suggestions for improvement. Donations for XHost are welcome as
- they will help invest more resources into improving XHost. Anyone
- sending 15$ or more will become a 'registered' user, meaning they
- will receive my undivided attention when asking for help and
- mailed notices of major developments.
