┌ ┐
│ First of all: I have changed the main archiver from ZIP to RAR. RAR, │
│ an ingenious product from Russia, has the capability to create solid │
│ archives and will produce an O/T archive that is MORE than 130 KB │
│ smaller than that one produced by PKZIP! │
│ │
│ The main archive is password protected. Annoying, isn't it? I know ... │
│ │
│ Why? Simple reason! Some stupid people add commercial stuff to every │
│ archive, for example files such CONTEST.TXT or similar annoying ads. │
│ │
│ In addition, some folks automatically re-pack archives, even if they │
│ are en- closed in an -AV envelope. │
│ │
│ Packing the main archive with a password is not the best and of course │
│ not the most secure way to get rid of this stuff, but it may help a │
│ little ... │

│ ┌┘ B I G R E D W A R N I N G *************************!! └┐ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ THIS VERSION WILL BY DEFAULT START UP IN NOVICE MODE! SOME OF │ │
│ │ THE SETTINGS IN OTSETUP ARE *NOT* AVAILABLE IN THAT MODE AND │ │
│ │ WILL *NOT* BE PROCESSED BY OT! (e.g. Twit-section) │ │
│ │ YOU HAVE TO CHANGE TO ADVANCED MODE IF YOU ARE USING THOSE │ │
│ │ OPTIONS !! │ │
│ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │
│ │ BIG WARNING #2: The /ONLYATTACH and /NOTATTACH switches in │ │
│ │ READR.OT have been renamed to /IFATTACH and /IFNATTACH !!! │ │
│ │ **DO NOT FORGET TO ADJUST YOUR READR.OT** │ │
│ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ So please use the following command to unpack the main-archive: │
│ │
│ (Take care: it IS case-sensitive! Replace the .xxx with the extension │
│ of the current version, e.g. .260 !) │
│ │
│ RAR e -pSally OT.xxx │
│ │
│ Thanks for your patience. │
