- README.UTL 06/18/91
- =================================================================
- This README file lists enhancements to the files on the
- Install/Utilities diskette(s) that are not yet documented
- in the Reference Manual. Dates in parentheses indicate when the
- enhancement was implemented. Please refer to the README files on
- the other master diskettes for additional information.
-
- The following files have been changed or added since the 03/29/91
- release:
-
- WPINFO.EXE
-
- =================================================================
- FLATTIRE.LRN and MEMO.LRN (11/01/90)
- =================================================================
- LetterPerfect is shipping two new files, FLATTIRE.LRN and
- MEMO.LRN, for use with Lesson 10 in the Learning section of the
- LetterPerfect Reference manual. The Installation Program
- installs these two files with the Learning Files. This new
- lesson will appear in the first reprint of the manual scheduled
- for release during fourth quarter of 1990.
-
- =================================================================
- INSTALL.EXE (11/01/90)
- =================================================================
- An update option has been added to the Installation Program.
- This option lets you install groups of files without performing
- the entire installation process. This is useful for updating
- only those files shipped in an update package.
-
- After you select Update (4) from the main installation menu, you
- choose which master diskettes you wish to update from and which
- groups of files on those diskettes you wish to install.
-
- Note: Speller/Thesaurus files and Printer files are installed to
- the directories specified in LetterPerfect under Location of
- Files (Shift-F1,4).
-
- =================================================================
- INSTALL.EXE (11/01/90)
- =================================================================
- A copy option has been added to the Installation Program. This
- option lets you decompress all the files on a specified master
- diskette and copy them to a destination drive. This is useful
- for copying .ALL files from the Printer master diskettes to your
- hard drive, for example.
-
- After you select Copy disks (5) from the main installation menu,
- you choose which master diskette you wish to update from and the
- directory to which the files will be installed.
-
- =================================================================
- LP.MRS (11/01/90)
- =================================================================
- This file is used to edit LetterPerfect macros with the Editor
- program (ED.EXE) which ships with WordPerfect Office.
- LetterPerfect installs LP.MRS with the utility programs. Note:
- You must use a version of Editor dated later than 6/14/90.
-
- =================================================================
- WINDOWS PROGRAM INFORMATION FILE (.PIF) (11/01/90)
- =================================================================
- LetterPerfect now provides a Program Information File (.PIF) that
- gives Microsoft Windows the information it needs to run
- LetterPerfect. You should use one of three files: WIN30-LP.PIF
- (Windows 3.0), LP10-286.PIF (Windows 286), and LP10-386.PIF
- (Windows 386). The .PIF files are installed with the
- LetterPerfect utility programs.
-
- The .PIF file has default settings that are common to most
- LetterPerfect users. If LetterPerfect is not running correctly
- under Windows, you may need to edit the .PIF file. To do so, you
- must edit it in the PIF Editor that comes with Windows.
- Information for using the PIF Editor to edit .PIF files is found
- in your Windows documentation.
-
- As you edit the .PIF file in the PIF Editor, the following
- information is important in helping LetterPerfect operate
- correctly under Windows:
-
- Initial Directory
- This option sets your default directory. Keep in mind, however,
- that any directory you enter in LetterPerfect as your document
- directory (see Location of Files in Reference) will override this
- setting.
-
- Memory Requirements
- Make sure that the KB Required heading is set to 330. Do not set
- this option for less than 330.
-
- Program Name
- The default setting for the location of the LetterPerfect Program
- is listed as C:\LP10\LP.EXE. If the LetterPerfect Program is
- contained in a directory other than C:\LP10, you need to specify
- that directory under the Program Name heading.
-
- If you are receiving a message from Windows that says it cannot
- find LP.EXE, check the Program Name setting for the .PIF file.
-
- Program Parameters
- This option is where you enter any startup options you want to
- take effect. For more information on LetterPerfect startup
- options, see Appendix K: Startup Options.
-
- Program Title
- While not essential to LetterPerfect operation, the program title
- lets you enter a descriptive name for the LetterPerfect program.
- The name you enter here will appear beneath the program icon in
- Windows.
-
- Video Mode
- For Windows 3.0, make sure the Video Mode option is set to
- Graphics/Multiple Text.

- initial release is available on a separate diskette. You can
- order the "LetterPerfect Enhancements Document" diskette ($10.00
