The package includes a program, "INSTALL.EXE", which automates the entire process. You will need about 500K of available disk space on the hard drive on which you plan to install the program. The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received SuperInstall. INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps. o Place the SuperInstall distribution diskette in the appropriate diskette drive. o Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program on the distribution diskette. For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, type the MS-DOS command, "a:install". o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy the SuperInstall files to that directory. If you received the program on two diskettes, you will need to insert Disk 2 in the diskette drive when asked to do so. It will make no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your autoexec.bat or config.sys files. INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE If you downloaded SuperInstall from a BBS (or received it in the form of archive files from some other source), you will need to perform the following steps. o Extract the contents of the archive file in a temporary directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this varies, depending on the form in which you received the package. In all likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means that you already have the necessary tools and knowledge to perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain directions for this from the same source from which you received the package. o Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program which you have extracted. For example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted the SuperInstall package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the MS-DOS command, "c:\tempdir\install". o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy the SuperInstall files to that directory. It will make no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your autoexec.bat or config.sys files. When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed SuperInstall (C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents. YOU'RE READY TO GO Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the documents (filename extension "txt") which have been installed. We hope you enjoy the program. ===== Warranty ========================================= DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF REMEDIES [1] THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED TO ALL WHO RECEIVE IT "AS-IS".

The "Trademark" means the mark "SuperInstall for DOS". The "Software" means the program and related text files and printed materials distributed by the Author under the Trademark. This Shareware Licence gives you a limited period to evaluate the Software. It also tells you how you can use the Software after the evaluation period ends, and *encourages* you to distribute it so that others can evaluate it. By using the Software you agree to all of the terms, conditions and disclaimers in this Licence. OWNERSHIP The Author owns, or has licenced from the owner, all copyrights and trade secrets in the Software, and owns the Trademark under which it distributes the Software. Among other things, this means: [1] The Software is not public domain software and is not free. Your rights to it are only those provided by this Licence. [2] The rights granted by this Licence are on the condition that you will not modify, reverse compile, disassemble, or reverse engineer the Software, in order to use or disclose any secret information of the Author that it contains. HOW AND WHY TO REGISTER You may evaluate the Software for 30 days after you first run any part of it on a computer. To use the Software after your evaluation period ends, you must register your use of the Software by completing the ORDER FORM and sending it to the author together with the registration fee it indicates. After your register the Software, you will have the right to use the Software on any number of machines, so long as there is no possibility that more than one copy will be used at a time. You will have the right to use the Software royalty-free to develop any number of installations, of any number of software titles, of which you are the author or publisher. Use of the Software beyond the trial period is copyright infringement unless you register and pay us the registration fee. Such use also threatens the continuation of the shareware revolution, which has benefitted users by its "try before you buy" philosophy and by slowing increases in software prices. Shareware enables hardworking shareware authors who don't have the marketing resources of a large software company to market some of the best and most innovative software to be found anywhere.
