- 1.0 - Installation
-
- The zip file should have included the following:
-
- winmaze.scr - The screen saver
- winmaze.wri - This file
- readme.txt - An overview text file
- orderfrm.txt - A text version of the order form for printing.
-
- To install the winmaze screen saver, simply copy winmaze.scr into your
- primary windows directory (the same directory win.com is in). For example,
- if windows is installed in c:\windows and you are at a dos prompt in the
- same directory as winmaze.scr, you can type:
-
- copy winmaze.scr c:\windows
-
- This will complete the installation. If you run the Desktop control panel,
- you will see 'Maze Solver' as one of the screen savers. Read the rest of
- this manual for instructions on configuring the screen saver. You may keep
- winmaze.wri and readme.txt anywhere you like.
-
-
- 2.0 - Hardware/Software requirements
-
- The Maze Solver screen saver should run on any 286 or higher system running
- Microsoft Windows version 3.1. There are reports that this screen saver may
- have difficulty under the Norton Screen Saver, but we have not confirmed this.
- Registered users also receive a version that runs under Windows NT.
-
-
- 3.0 - Disclaimers
-
- While care has been taken to ensure the quality of this product, we cannot
- be responsible if this product destroys your computer, your life, or the
- universe as we know it.
-
- 4.0 - Registration
-
- If you are reading this, we are impressed. Registration is $15. The
- registration form is contained in orderfrm.txt and at the end of winmaze.wri.
- After registering, you will receive two disks (one PC, one Mac) which
- includes the most recent versions of the following:
-
- - MS Windows 3.1 Maze Solver screen saver/program with password
- protection.
-
- - MS Windows NT 3.1 Maze Solver screen saver/program for Intel based
- computers. (Password protection is built-into NT.)
-
- - Macintosh Maze Solver screen saver for After Dark and Darkside of
- the Mac.
-
- - Macintosh Maze Solver application program.
-
- 5.0 - General Info
-
- Once installed and selected as the current screen saver, Maze Solver will
- run with default settings without any other configuration information. If you
- choose to further configure Maze Solver, see the following sections describing
- the dialog boxes and configuration options. Almost every facet of Maze Solver
- can be configured.
-
- Maze Solver also runs correctly as an executable application. Change the name
- of the file winmaze.scr to winmaze.exe and put it in any directory you want.
- The primary item missing as an executable is that the size of the maze will
- always be the full size of the window.
-
- The screen saver will store any needed configuration information in a .INI file
- that is in the same directory as the program. Under WinNT, this information is
- stored in the screen saver portion of the current user's registry. (Yes, each
- user can have their own settings).
-
- The registered version of Maze Solver has password protection that we believe
- to be at least equal to the security provided with the built-in Windows screen
- savers. Unfortunately, built-in detection of network passwords is not
- supported. The registered version also comes with Macintosh-After Dark,
- Macintosh stand alone, and MS Windows NT versions of the screen saver.
-
- Please see winmaze.wri for other documentation, including configuration and
- common questions and answers.
