The WinGo! version 1.0 README file.....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for trying WinGo! for Windows. This program is released as shareware.
If you like it and intend to continue using it, please send $10 ($15 for an
update disk) as described in the online help.
Please redistribute the archived file to other users or BBS's.

Installation

File Locations
--------------
WINGO.EXE Any directory. Must be located with WINGO.HLP.
WINGO.HLP Any directory. Must be located with WINGO.EXE.
THREED.VBX The WINDOWS or WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.
IMPORTANT NOTE: WinGo! is a Visual Basic application. Because of this, it
is necessary to have the file VBRUN200.DLL in your PATH. Normally, this
file is located in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory with most other DLLs. This
file can be found on most BBS's and other online services as well as from
most computer user groups.
Creating the icon
-----------------
If you already know how to install a Windows application, then place the
executable file (WINGO.EXE) wherever you like. Otherwise, copy the
program file into your Windows directory and run Windows. Then,
follow these steps:
1. In the Program Manager, open your Games icon ( if it is not
already open ).
2. Select the File menu in the menu bar of the Program
Manager and make the New... selection
3. When the dialog box opens, press the OK button.
4. If you are using Windows 3.1, at this point you need to
press the BROWSE button to open the file selector.
Use the controls in this window to display the directory
that contains the files in the WinGo! archive.
5. In the file selector, scroll down to the bottom of the list.
Double click on WINGO.EXE.
6. In the next dialog that appears, press Change Icon. If the
icon shown is not acceptable, press the View Next button until
a more appropriate icon is displayed. When you are ready,
press OK and OK again.
The WinGo! icon should now appear in your Games group. The
program can be run by double clicking on the new icon.
