│ This is a VENDINFO Product Information Record │
│ │
│ This record is a means of conveying information about a software │
│ product from the author to distributors and users. It contains a │
│ normal, "human-readable" section (you're reading it now), followed │
│ by a compressed data record. The data record contains a great │
│ deal of information in a form useable by automated tools. This │
│ allows BBSes, disk vendors, etc. to test automatically for │
│ permission to distribute, and to automatically extract product │
│ information for use in BBS files databases, vendor catalogs, etc. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO file standard is published and is freely useable. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO toolset includes a free end-user viewer, processing │
│ tools for use by distributors (BBSes, shareware disk vendors, │
│ etc.), and the editor used by author/publishers to produce these │
│ records. These tools are either free or very-low cost shareware. │
│ The toolset can be obtained from many sources, including the │

===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
This package contains ZIP'R Pro (TM) by Stevenson Technical Services,
Inc. (STSI). This document contains only a brief description of the
package and its features, along with instructions for its installation.
Quite detailed documentation is included in the package, but it is in
archived form, and is more easily read after installation.
ZIP'R Pro saves valuable hard drive space by storing programs in
compressed form when they are not being used. Use ZIP'R Pro to
automatically decompress a program, execute it, and recompress it again.
ZIP'R Pro can use an existing compression program such as PKZIP, ARJ, or
LHA, or it can use internal compression routines that are compatible
with PKZIP 2.0! Easily integrate ZIP'R Pro into your favorite menu
system, or use ZIP'R Pro's button menu to point and click on the program
you want to run. Store the program's compressed file on any drive and
directory, including floppies! Works with networks & multitaskers.
Easy to use push-button interface with mouse support!
ZIP'R Pro is a shareware program. You may use it for up to 2 weeks,
without charge (see ZIPRPRO.DOC for more details). If you like the
program, and wish to continue its use after this evaluation period, you
are required to pay for the program (see REGISTER.DOC for more details).
Any fee you may have paid to others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to
obtain this evaluation version was a fee for their copying and
distribution services, rather than a payment for continued use of the
program.

===== Installation =====================================
The installation procedure for ZIP'R Pro is quite simple. The package
includes a program, "INSTALL.EXE", which automates the entire process.
You will need about 1 megabyte of available disk space on the hard drive
on which you plan to install ZIP'R Pro.
The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received ZIP'R
Pro.
INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
1. Place ZIP'R Pro distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the appropriate
diskette drive.
2. Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, type
the MS-DOS command, "a:install".
3. Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. You
will have a chance to approve installation before any changes are
actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The program will
ask you for a destination directory, and will copy the ZIP'R Pro
files to that directory. If you received ZIP'R Pro on two
diskettes, you will need to insert Disk 2 in the diskette drive
when asked to do so. If you so direct it, the installation
program will install executable programs and documentation in
other directories of your choice.
INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
If you downloaded ZIP'R Pro from a BBS (or received it in the form of
archive files from some other source), you will need to perform the
following steps.
1. Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this varies,
depending on the form in which you received the package. In all
likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means that you
already have the necessary tools and knowledge to perform this step.
If not, you should be able to obtain directions for this from the
same source from which you received the package.
2. Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted the
files is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the MS-DOS command,
"c:\tempdir\install".
3. Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. You
will have a chance to approve installation before any changes are
actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The installation
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy the
program files to that directory. If you so direct it, the
installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice.
When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed the program,
(C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.
YOU'RE READY TO GO
Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the documents
(filename extension "doc") which have been installed. In particular,
read at least the "Installation" section of the file ZIPRPRO.DOC. That
document will tell you how to invoke the program, and will give you
other information you need to properly evaluate ZIP'R Pro. We hope you
enjoy the program.
