REGISTRATION REMINDERS
Unlicensed copies of Wilson WindowWare products are 100% fully functional.
We make them this way so that you can have a real look at them, and then
decide whether they fit your needs or not. Our entire business depends
on your honesty. If you use it, we expect you to pay for it. We feel
that if we treat you right, you will treat us right.
Unlicensed copies of our products do have a pesky registration reminder
screen that pops up whenever you start the program. This shouldn't
really affect your evaluation od our software.
We're sure that once you see the incredible quality of our software,
you will dig out your credit card, pick up the phone, call the nice
people at our 800 number and register the software.
When you pay for the shareware you like, you are voting with your
pocketbook, and will encourage us to bring you more of the same kinds
of products. Pay for what you like, and voila, more of what you like
will almost magically be developed.
LEGAL MATTERS
Of course the usual disclaimers still apply. We are not
responsible for anything at all. Nothing. Even if we are held
responsible, the limit of our liability is the licensing fees
you paid. The full text of our license agreement is found near
the bottom of this file.
HOW TO INSTALL THIS SOFTWARE
Use our snazzy setup program...
1) Close down all extraneous Windows applications.
(You do have to be in Windows to run WSETUP.EXE)
2) Double-Click on the WSETUP.EXE program. (If you have the
WinCheck product in front of you, the setup program is still
called SETUP.EXE)
3) When the setup program asks for a directory, specify initial
directory, or accept the given default.
4) When the screen comes up that asks you what you want to
install, do your selections, or just hit the INSTALL ALL
button. Hit the OK button to continue.
******************** MANUAL INSTALL *********************
If you cannot use the snazzy setup program, and must do a manual
install.....good luck. Basically installing our products without
going through the setup program is "unsupported", as installation
of Windows products does get tricky. However as to not leave you
completely in the lurch....
1) Most files to be installed by the installation program end in
a $. The file might have been compressed. If you received the
files on a disk, the probability is HIGH that you must expand
the files with our WEXPAND (see below) program before use.
If you received the files packages in a ZIP file, the probability
is low. If you try to expand a file that was not compressed,
the expand program will give some kind of error message.
2) In general, the DLL files should go into your WINDOWS directory,
or else some directory mentioned in your DOS path statement.
3) The BROWSER.EXE program may be used to view the *.MAN manual
files. It is recommented that you put the BROWSER program in
the same directroy you put the DLL files.
4) You may want to add to the WIN.INI [Extensions] section the
following lines:
MAN=BROWSER.EXE ^.MAN
HLP=WINHELP ^.HLP
WBT=WINBATCH.EXE ^.WBT
*** USING THE WEXPAND PROGRAM ***
Example:
The installation diskette is inserted into your A: floppy drive
You wish to expand the WININFO.EX$ file. At the DOS prompt type...
WEXPAND.EXE WININFO.EX$ WININFO.EXE
