-
- Dear Registered ALLFIX user,
-
- We are pleased to bring you the second gamma for the next generation in
- ALLFIX. As you will see, this version has number features that will make
- using ALLFIX even easier and more pleasant then before.
-
- Please consult the UPDATE.LOG file for a complete list of all of the
- changes that have taken place since the last official release. For a
- quick overview of what is new in ALLFIX 5.0, then please consult the
- WHATSNEW.LOG for a summarized list of new features.
-
- As you may have read in the international help echos, we have,
- regrettably, changed the update policy. The consequence is that many
- of you will have to pay a small update feel if you wish to use ALLFIX
- 5.0. Please consult POLICY.TXT for more information on the changes in
- the update policy.
-
- Incase you haven't already done so, please take a moment and check out
- our web site. We will try to keep you up to date with all of the changes
- taking place, via the web site. You can find us at:
-
- www.allfix.com
-
- Updating your configuration files to this gamma version is really easy.
- Simply follow the following steps:
-
- 1. run UPDATE to update your Magicfile names and your Hatch
- configuration.
- 2. delete your AREAS.FIX and .IDX file.
- 3. delete your NEWFILES.FIX and .IDX file.
-
- * note: These two files need to be deleted since the
- configuration for the FileFind and the BBS new file
- dirs setup has changed dramatically. Reconfiguring
- your areas will be very easy!
-
- 4. delete your ALLFIX.DAT file.
-
- * note: There is a freeware program available on our website
- which can be used to convert your ALLFIX.DAT file to
- the new format. The name of the file is AFDATCVT.ZIP
-
- 5. run ASETUP Index
- 6. run FCOMP
- 7. make sure to replace your old keyfile(s) with the new
- keyfile, included in the release.
-
- And, last but not least, I want to remind you to make a backup of your
- files before you begin installing this version.
-
-
- Thank you,
-
- Harald (harald@allfix.com)
