- POVCAD v4.0 for Windows Installation
- ==========================================================================
- By the time you read this file, you will have unzipped PVCWIN.ZIP which
- contains:
- readme.1st This file
- povcad40.wri Shareware, registration and legal information
- povcad4.zip Archive containing POVCAD files (listed below)
-
- These files should be in a special directory before you continue. If this
- isn't the case, then:
-
- 1. Create a new directory (e.g., C:\POVCAD40).
-
- 2. Move these files to the new directory:
-
- povcad40.wri
- povcad4.zip
-
- 3. Unzip the archive POVCAD4.ZIP with the -d command line switch to
- preserve the subdirectory structure. The archive POVCAD4.ZIP contains
- a subdirectory called SYSTEM, which contains files that should be moved
- to your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.
-
- The archive contains the following files:
-
- cmdialog.vbx VB extension library
- colors.def List of colors for Polyray
- colors.pv List of colors for POV 1.x
- colors.pv2 List of colors for POV 2.x

- 4. Make sure you have the file vbrun300.dll in your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory
- (POVCAD won't run without it!). If you don't have it, you can obtain it
- from CompuServe (GO WINSHARE, LIB 1, vbrun3.zip).
-
- 5. Move the files threed.vbx, cmdialog.vbx, vbmsg.vbx and ctl3dv2.dll to
- your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory. All other files should remain in the new
- C:\POVCAD40 directory.
-
- 6. Create program icons for POVCAD40.EXE and POVCAD40.HLP in the Program
- Group of your choice using Program Manager. (Read your Windows manual
- for detailed instructions on this).
