- Definition of Shareware
-
- Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.
- If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to
- register. Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration
- while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With
- registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the
- software to an updated program and a printed manual.
-
- Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and retail software, and the
- copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
- below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like retail
- authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are
- good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
- distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
- the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example,
- some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may
- copy their Shareware.
-
- Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
- software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's retail or
- Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you
- can try before you buy. And because the overhead is lower, prices are lower
- also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
- product, you don't pay for it.
-
-
- ASP Ombudsman Policy
-
- This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
- Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle
- works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related problem with
- an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The
- ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member,
- but does not provide technical support for members' products. Please write to
- the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442-9427 or send a
- Compuserve message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536

- Installing Professional Capture Systems
-
- Before you can use the Professional Capture Systems you have to run the setup
- program from DOS or Windows so it will work properly on your computer.
-
- You cannot just copy the files from the Professional Capture Systems disk to
- your hard disk. The files on the distribution disk are packed in a special
- way to save space. The setup program unpacks those files and builds them on
- your working disk.
-
- Installation from within Microsoft Windows
-
- 1. Make Windows' "Program Manager" the active window.
-
- 2. From Windows' "Program Manager", select "File", then select "Run".
- This will open the "Run" dialog box.
-
- Place the copy of Professional Capture Systems in your floppy drive.
- Now, the dialog box needs for you to type in the command that will run
- the Professional Capture Systems installation program.
-
- * If your floppy disk goes in your Drive "A", type:
- A:SETUP
- Leave the "Run Minimized" box un-selected, and click the "OK" command
- button (or press "Enter").
-
- * If your floppy disk goes in your Drive "B", type:
- B:SETUP
- Leave the "Run Minimized" box un-selected, and click the "OK" command
- button (or press "Enter").
-
- 3. Fill in the required information in the dialog box.
-
- * It will ask you for the "Source Drive and Directory" designation where
- your Professional Capture Systems floppy disk is located. (This is the
- same floppy drive designation you typed in the previous step before the
- word "setup".)
-
- * It will ask you for the hard disk "Destination Drive and Directory"
- designation on which you want it to install Professional Capture Systems.
- It will suggest a directory named "C:\PCS".
-
- If you want the Professional Capture Systems program files installed on a
- different drive or directory, just click the pointer to the right of the
- characters you want to change, backspace over the ones you want to erase,
- then type in the new designation.
-
- * It will automatically build a Professional Capture Systems icon and
- add it to "Program Manager". Accept the "Yes" (already selected by
- default) if you do want it to do this. Select "No" if you do not.
-
- 4. Professional Capture Systems Setup will unpack the necessary files (for
- both WinCapture and DosCapture) and place them into your directory.
-
- 5. Professional Capture Systems Setup will notify you when the installation
- is completed.
-

-
- Installing Professional Capture Systems (continued)
-
- Installation from DOS

- run the Professional Capture Systems installation program.
-
- * If your floppy disk goes in your Drive "A", type:
- A:SETUP
-
- * If your floppy disk goes in your Drive "B", type:
- B:SETUP
-
- 2. If the setup program cannot find the file PCS.CMP, it will ask you for
- the drive and directory where it can be found. If the setup program
- finds PCS.CMP this step will be skipped. If you are asked for the drive
- and directory, you should type in the drive name followed by a colon
- and slash and then the directory. The following is an example.
- B:\
-
- 3. The setup program will ask you for the hard disk "Destination Drive
- and Directory" designation on which you want it to install Professional
- Capture Systems.
-
- 4. Professional Capture Systems Setup will unpack the necessary files (for
- both WinCapture and DosCapture) and place them into your directory.
-
- 5. Professional Capture Systems Setup will notify you when the installation
- is completed.
-

-
-
- The User's Manual
-
- The user's manual is one of the files that will be unpacked and placed on
- your working disk when you run the SETUP program. The file is PCS.TXT.
- It is a text file.
-
- When you purchase the licensed version of Professional Capture Systems you
- will receive a fully illustrated, printed User's Guide.
