===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
This package contains the MicroFox Utilities (TM) by MicroFox Company.
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.
If you've ever wished you could control your printers, delay activity,
and use customized commands in your batch files, then the MicroFox
Utilities are for you...
The MicroFox Utilities are a shareware program. This evaluation version
includes all features of the program, and is not crippled in any way.
You may use it for up to 30 days, without charge (see SEE.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 the MicroFox Utilities is quite simple.
The package includes a program, "INSTALL.EXE", which automates the
entire process. You will need about 128K of available disk space on the
hard drive on which you plan to install the MicroFox Utilities.
The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received the
MicroFox Utilties.
INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
o Place the MicroFox Utilites distribution diskette in the
appropriate diskette drive.
o 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".
o 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 MicroFox Utility files to that directory. If you so direct it,
the installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice. It will make
no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your
autoexec.bat or config.sys files.
INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
If you downloaded the MicroFox Utilties from a BBS (or received it in
the form of archive files from some other source), you will need to
perform the following steps.
o 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.
o Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted
the SEE package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the MS-DOS
command, "c:\tempdir\install".
o 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 MicroFox Utility files to that directory. If you so direct
it, the installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice. It will make
no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your
autoexec.bat or config.sys files.
When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed the MicroFox
Utility files (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 the file "*.DOC" files. Those document will tell you how to invoke
the programs, and will give you other information you need to properly
evaluate the utilities. We hope you enjoy the programs.
