- echo WELCOME TO DEEP SPACE 3-D, VERSION 3.0
- echo
- echo Deep Space 3-D is distributed as two self-extracting archive files called
- echo
- echo DS3D1.EXE and DS3D2.EXE
- echo
- echo INSTALL.BAT is included in the DS3D1.EXE archive, but it may also have been
- echo included as a separate file.
- echo
- echo Since DEEP SPACE 3-D is shareware, you may have received it in various forms.
- echo If you got the program from a primary source (directly from David Chandler Co.
- echo or from a Shareware Distributor) it came on two 360K disks or one higher
- echo density disk, with INSTALL.BAT included externally. If you got it from a BBS
- echo you probably received only the two archive files. If you received it from a
- echo friend, you may have received it either way, or as a collection of loose files.
- echo
- echo If you did not receive the program in archive form neither you nor we know
- echo what you have nor what condition it is in. Send $15 to David Chandler Co.,
- echo P.O. Box 309, La Verne, CA 91750 for a clean copy of the unregistered program,
- echo or send $79 for a registered program, or write for a brochure. The $15 is
- echo applicable toward the registration price.

- echo EXPLANATION
- echo
- echo Starting with Version 3.0, DEEP SPACE 3-D requires a hard drive. Installation
- echo requires approximately 2.5 Megabytes of disk space. (Some of that space is
- echo left free at the end of installation.)
- echo
- echo DEEP SPACE 3-D can be run with all files in a single directory, but this is
- echo not recommended. As files are added by the user or created by the program
- echo the directory can become quite cluttered. It is better to organize the files
- echo into sub-directories.
- echo
- echo INSTALL.BAT will create the sub-directories you need and copy the files to the
- echo correct directories.

- echo INSTRUCTIONS
- echo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- echo CASE 1: If you are installing from floppy drive A: and you want to create a
- echo base directory called DS3D on hard drive C:,
- echo
- echo Type: A: (Followed by a carriage return)
- echo then type: INSTALL C: DS3D (Followed by a carriage return)
- echo
- echo (Follow the same pattern if you use a different floppy drive, a different hard
- echo drive, and/or a different base directory name.)
- echo
- echo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- echo CASE 2: If you got DS3D1.EXE, and DS3D2.EXE from a BBS, copy both files to
- echo the directory you want to use as the base directory. Move to that directory.
- echo Expand the archive files by typing their file names (without the .EXE), then:
- echo
- echo Type: INSTALL zzz (Followed by a carriage return)
- echo
- echo (This will create the appropriate sub-directories and move the files.)
- echo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- echo (Be sure you type a colon after the drive letter and include spaces as shown)
