To: our beloved shareware dealers
From: Peter Turnquist
About: MasterMind Typing 1.03
If you want MasterMind Typing configured differently for your
style of distribution, or if I can help in any other way,
please phone or write:
2400 Olympic Boulevard, suite 3-192
Walnut Creek, California 94595-1500, U.S.A.
phone (510)210-1603
To automate setup, configurations differ among:
* BBS self-extracting LHA
* BBS ZIP
* SDN/BBS self-extracting ARJ
* 3.5" disk distribution
* 5.25" (360K) disk distribution
Shareware dealers, trying to help, often add procedures that
inhibit MasterMind Typing installation. Let nothing impede
the automated SETUP that MasterMind Typing has! When users
fail to install, they blame us both. Measures that you have
used to standardize installation are especially perilous.
The common mischief is an ingenious .BAT file that disk
dealers add to every product. Please refrain! MasterMind
Typing already has a HELP.BAT that tells the user how to
start automated installation. If your diskette label tells
users to execute something, let it be my HELP. Just rename
my HELP.BAT as YOURNAME.BAT to conform with your label.
Do not rearchive MasterMind Typing. Everyone who has
rearchived has made installation difficult or impossible. If
there is any deficiency in the archive that you have, let me
fix it for you.
If you prepare a master for reproduction that deviates from
mine in the slightest, send me a copy for checkout. I really
mean in the slightest (except for renaming HELP.BAT), even if
you only add a .TXT advisory.
As your catalog description, please adopt CATALOG.TXT (or,
for BBS archives, FILE_ID.DIZ). Evolved through many
conversations with users, it says what they need to know,
attractively and briefly. To illustrate the MasterMind
Typing entry in your catalog, please contact me for
GRAPHICS.ZIP if you don't have it already.
Thanks for your support.
