I think there are still quite a few bugs to be fixed... I ask you
to contact me as soon as suspicious behaviour is noticed. See the
section titled 'Support' for methods of doing so.
It should be noted that the installation program is still quite
unsophisticated. No online help is provided, so some sections of
the manual (XHOST.DOC) are worth printing out (perhaps via a word
processor), especially the menu editor section, which requires the
knowledge of trivial codes.
Notes on Installation
─────────────────────
Installation is still manual. It is recommended that you create an
XHOST directory for the data files.
All files with an SLC extension must be placed inside your script
directory (defined in Telix, Alt-O F C), and all other files must
be copied to your XHost data directory (defined in XHost Setup,
System, XHost directory).
The following files are in the distribution archive:
Unnecessary files:
FILE_ID.DIZ XHost's description
README.1ST This file
XH110.NEW Changes and bug fixes in this version
In script directory:
ADD.SLC Adds files to FILES.LST in current directory

Getting help or advice for XHost is most easily done by contacting
me. You are also encouraged (begged!) to forward bug reports and
suggestions for improvement. Donations for XHost are welcome as
they will help invest more resources into improving XHost. Anyone
sending 15$ or more will become a 'registered' user, meaning they
will receive my undivided attention when asking for help and
mailed notices of major developments.
I can be reached by:
Writing to 3agp3@qucdn.queensu.ca, which is my Internet
address.
Writing to ANDRAS PATTANTYUS on the Fidonet Telix Echo.
Calling (613) 549-4914, preferrably around 11:00pm Eastern
time.
My address is:
Brockington House, Room 6
Kingston, ON
K7L 3X3
CANADA
Development has slowed down somewhat due to my studies. Things will
pick up again in the summer, or as soon as I get a computer for my
new residence room. This information is valid until May 1994, when
I'll find out about my summer address.
