RESDUET+ 1.0 Information 10/93
*******************************************************************
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This is not freeware and if you like it and use it you should
send a mere $15 to me at the address that follows. By doing this you
will feel very good about yourself (and so will I) and you will be
helping me spend more time at the beach. Oh, and you'll also receive
the first update which will be available soon. This update will have
more features, a better look and will have user-customizing
possibilities to add your own programs to The File Machine. And it
won't have the opening box when executed (the "nag" box won't nag).
Please send your name & address and the (miniscule) $15 to register
this program to:
Michael Grice
8234 Excelsior Drive
Pensacola, Florida 32514
Also include any comments, suggestions or ideas and any problems.
I can also be reached at America-On-Line (Mikey32514) and
CompuServe (72144,1537).
The information about this program will follow soon but I just want
to mention that there are a couple "light" humorous message boxes used
in this program instead of the usual common (sometimes technical and
boring) messages. I hope you like them. If you do, please let me know
because I really would like to add more. If not, please don't take offense.

To run RESDUET+ you will need the VBRUN300.DLL Visual Basic runtime
file (found on most BBS's) in your Windows or Windows/system directory
(as long as this is in your path statement). Then add a new program
item to one of your groups (File*New*OK, etc.) using the icon with
RESDUET+. I don't know if this will run in Windows 3.0 but it should.
The files included with RESDUET+ are:
1. resduet.exe - to be placed in any directory (you may want this in
your start-up group also).
2. resduet.txt - this file
3. threed.vbx - to be placed in your Windows or Windows\system
directory if you don't already have it. (Please make sure this is the
most recent version).
4. resduet.ini - will only be created in your Windows directory
(assuming Windows is on your "C" drive) if you change the restart/resource
panel position and save the change.
=======================================================================
RESTART/RESOURCE PANEL:
I won't get into very many instructions here because they are included
in the program but the important ones are;
* To re-position the restart/resource panel, click on the "time" panel
with the right mouse button.
* To read the restart/resource panel instructions, click on the
"resource" panel with the right mouse button.
* To open The File Machine, click on the "time" panel with the left
mouse button.
* To check your available memory space and available disk space, click
on the "resource" panel with your right mouse button.
#######################################################################
THE FILE MACHINE:
Most of this is self-explanatory and also includes instructions. The
"buttons" in the center of The File Machine open the pictured files
when you click on them with the left mouse button. If you click on
them with the right mouse button a different file opens.
These files are;
LEFT BUTTON RIGHT BUTTON
File Manager Win.ini in Notepad
Program Manager System.ini in Notepad
Control Panel Windows Setup
Notepad Autoexec.bat in Notepad
Write Nothing (except ?)
System Edit (Sysedit) Config.sys in Notepad
Registration Edit (Regedit) Nothing (maybe)
PIF Editor DOS Prompt
Clipboard Character Map
Paintbrush Object Packager
Card File Terminal (really!)
Calculator Minesweeper
Sound Recorder Media Player
Recorder Nothing (guess)
Print Manager Solitaire

That's about all for me. Well, almost. One thing I hate to see in any
program or text file or in any printed piece (magazine, letter,
newspaper)is bad grammar and misspelled words (obviously, newspapers
drive me crazy). So, if you find any in my programs please let me know
how completely stupid I am.
Thanks and have fun.
P.S. I actually haven't seen the beach in months.
