- MineSweeper version 1.2.0
- -------------------------
-
- This program is an OS/2 2.0 version of MineSweeper, a game distributed
- by Microsoft as a part of their Entertainment Pack for Windows, and
- included with Windows 3.1. I attempted to be faithful to the original
- game when designing my interface, so current MineSweeper users will not
- have any learning curve. I have added a few features not found in the
- Microsoft game, and I plan to add more in the future.
-
- MineSweeper is a 32-bit executable for use with the OS/2 operating
- system version 2.0 or greater and it's Presentation Manager graphical
- interface. It will not operate on 16-bit versions of OS/2, such as 1.2
- and 1.3.
-
- To run MineSweeper, either double click on it's icon or type "start
- mine" from a text session. If you make a program reference icon for it,
- be sure the startup directory is the same directory that the program and
- its files reside in.
-
- To learn how to play the game, choose "Extended Help" from the "Help"
- menu and read the screens. They should describe the game completely.
-
- Note that help will not be available unless the file MINE.HLP exists in
- the same directory as the MINE.EXE program.
-
- When you quit MineSweeper for the first time, a MINE.INI file will be
- created in the program's directory. It will contain all your settings,
- including the high scores and the window's position. To reset
- everything, just delete this file and it will be created with blank data
- the next time you run MineSweeper.

- All releases of this program will be uploaded to the Internet via
- anonymous ftp to cdrom.com. It should be found in the /os2/2_x/games
- directory. While I may upload this package elsewhere, and others may
- upload it wherever they choose, I guarantee that this site will have the
- latest version I release.
