Help for Repression version 0.01
--------------------------------
What does this program do?
=========================
This program re-instates the date stamp of your system directory should
it ever get changed by:
i) Broken versions of 'SysMerge'
ii) Moving the 'System' directory to another disc.
That is its sole purpose. Any other use is in direct violation of
the conditions of use.
How does it do it?
=================
When you run this program for the first time it reads the date stamp of
the system directory and makes a record of it within the the Repression
directory. On subsequent use it will re-stamp the System directory with
that stored date.
How do I use it?
===============
Ensure the System directory has been seen by the Filer and then
double-click on the Repression application. A window will open with a
short disclaimer in it. If you agree to the conditions then click the
'Agree' button, otherwise the program will quit.
On agreeing to the conditions, the program will either record the
datestamp, or restore it, depending on whether this is the first
time you have used this program. The program will then silently and
automatically quit.
Distributing the program
========================
You may distribute the program freely as long as all files remain
included and unchanged, and any distribution/duplication etc. costs
passed on to the purchaser are less than ú2.
Please run the 'Distribute' file (within the Repression directory) before
copying, as this will reset the program to the 'unused' state. This can
also be useful if you want to give the System Directory a later date-stamp
at some stage.
