                             **NOTE**
This is a "public beta" release of Winfract.  We've made a *lot* of
changes to the code, and we'll be inserting a diskette containing Winfract
into a book we're working on ("Fractals for Windows", published by the
Waite Group, hopefully in your favorite bookstore just in time for Christmas),
and we'd like to locate the bugs *before* we stuff it into the book jacket.
*Please* do us a favor and report any bugs to Bert Tyler (Compuserve ID
73477,433 and available via the Internet as [e-mail]).
Thanks!


This is version 17.25 of Fractint for Windows.  Fractint for Windows
requires Microsoft Windows version 3.0 or 3/1 running in either Standard
or 386-Enhanced mode (the program will refuse to run in "Real Mode").

This file is only here to ease your mind a bit ("what, no DOC file?").
Other than this file, the only documentation is in the on-line Help screens.

By now, you have discovered that the ZIP file consists of WINFRACT.EXE,
WINFRACT.HLP, and a few FRM, MAP, IFS and L files.  WINFRACT.EXE and
WINFRACT.HLP are required to run the program and obtain online Help (and
you *will* need to look at the on-line help, as it's the only documentation
you are ever gonna see for this release), and should be copied to
the same directory.

The FRM, MAP, and IFS files are direct copies of files in version 17.0
of Fractint-for-DOS and are only required for specific fractal types
(if you already *have* version 17.0 of FFD, you can use its copies
of these files instead).

Just unZIP these files into some convenient directory, and either call
the program manually using the File Manager or the "File Run" option
of the program manager, or install it permanently using the "File New"
option of the Program Manager.

Enjoy.
