Agile HTML Editor Information: README.TXT
=========================================
Copyright (c) Compware 1996
Last updated: 12 July 1996
------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
------------
Agile is a special HTML editor that opens up new ways of working with
HTML.
It has been designed to take as much of the hard work out of editing
your Web source files as possible. This has been achieved by
concentrating on implementing features with great attention to
detail, and using the power of software to do as much of the hard
work for you as possible.
We've concentrated on making Agile work the way you want to, and
saving you the drudgery of remembering complex HTML specifications
while still allowing you to use the full power of HTML, and
ensuring complete compatibility with your chosen set of browsers (or
HTML standards).
For a quick summary of why Agile is so special, please take a minute
to look at the Highlights section of Agile Help.

IMPORTANT NOTE
If you wish to store, copy, distribute or use the Agile HTML Editor
sofware, you must first read and agree to the terms and conditions
described in the LICENSE.TXT file. If you fail to read and agree to
these terms, you will be in breach of the copyright vested in this
software and liable for any consequenses arising out of such a breach
breach of copyright.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMPWARE
--------
We are a small outfit based in Cambridge UK, dedicated to producing
software which is genuinely useful and works hard so that you don't
have to.
You will find that a lot of attention is paid to the user interface and
the finer details of how you want to operate in our software. This is
because every product has been produced for our own use, and so has had
vocal feedback from users from its conception.
Compware started in 1983, selling peripherals and software, and realised
immediately that the only way to succeed in business is to identify what
people will find useful and concentrate all your efforts on maintaining
that position. From very early on, we started producing our own software,
so that we were able to design the products for users needs rather than
just pick the best from a not always so wonderful bunch.
TELETEXT
In addition to the on-line world of the Web, we also specialise in software
which makes the most of the Teletext broadcasting system. If you use Teletext
and don't think that it works as well as it could, you need look no further
than our web pages (see CONTACT POINTS below). Take a look at the TvText
Teletext Viewer for the best Windows Teletext sofware available.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLATFORMS
---------
Agile runs under Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT.
DISK SPACE
Agile will take up between 1 and 2.5MB of disk space when installed,
depending on how many of the required system files are already present
on your system.
Approximately twice this amount of space will be required during the
installation.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLING AGILE
----------------
Agile installs into "C:\Program Files\Agile", or an alternative
directory which you may specify. It may also install some additional
files into your Windows directories if they are not already present.
During installation, Agile records details of all files and other
changes made to your system, such as registy entries, and provides
an uninstall program so that the entire installation can be removed
easily.
Installing Agile is simple, but the precise details depend on the
form in which you have obtained it. Agile can be obtained on disk,
in partially compressed form, or downloaded in a compressed .ZIP
archive file.
FLOPPY DISK
The disk version is ready for installation immediately. Start
Windows and then run the application "setup.exe" directly from
the disk. Now see "AFTER INSTALLATION" below.
ZIP ARCHIVE
If you download the software you will receive it in a .ZIP archive
file which must be extracted before you can install Agile. You must
extract the software from the archive into a temporary directory,
using a program such as PKUNZIP (for DOS) or WinZip (for Windows).
It is beyond the scope of this document to explain how to use
these (or other archive extraction programs), so please refer to
the documentation for the particular archive extraction program
you have available.
Having extracted the files into a temporary directory, you can run
the application "setup.exe". Now see "AFTER INSTALLATION" below.
AFTER INSTALLATION
The installation program creates items on the Start Menu for starting
Agile and accessing help and readme files.
When you first start Agile you will be prompted for a license
key. If you have registered, this should have been included on
the installation disk, or as and alphanumeric code in an email
message or fax.
If you have not yet registered, you can use an evaluation key instead
(see EVALUATION below), or can use Agile without a key, in which case
some important functions will be disabled.
Even without an evaluation license, the available commands and
in particular the Help system (see the Highlights section) will
give you a very good idea of what Agile has to offer.
UNINSTALLING AGILE
To remove an installation of Agile:
1) Open Control Panel from the Start Menu using the "Settings" sub menu.
2) Choose "Add/Remove Software" which will open a properties dialog.
3) Choose "Agile HTML Editor" within the dialog.
IMPORTANT
Before you forget, please make a backup copy of the Agile
installation files. If you don't, you are bound to need it!
