- To use this disc, you will need to unarchive the compressed programs
- on the CDROM to your hard disk. Files that end in the ".zip"
- extension are compressed.
-
- To make browsing the disk easier, we have included the VIEW program
- for MSDOS in the root directory of the CDROM. This program allows
- you to page through the index files and then unarchive the program(s)
- you want onto your hard disk.
-
- ===========================================================================
-
- Although you may own this disc, you do not own the programs recorded
- on it. Many of the programs on this disc are shareware. You are
- free to try each program for a limited amount of time. If you are
- satisfied, and want to continue to use the program, you are required
- to register the program by sending a specified amount of money
- directly to the author of the program. Often the author will send
- you the most up to date version of the program and a printed manual.
- Please check the individual files for specific information. Please
- help support shareware by contributing to these authors. They make
- discs like this possible.
