This is the README.TXT file for Chess Captor 1.20,
a product designed specifically for creating chess
diagrams on the fly under Windows 95.
DOCUMENTATION
-----------------------
Chess Captor comes with its own help file. It is not
very difficult to work with Chess Captor. You can run
the help file independently from Chess Captor if you
want to by double clicking the file "Captor.hlp"
in Windows Explorer.
You can access online help through the Contents window
where the information is organized into books and
chapters, or go directly to the Index window to look
for specific references and keywords to help you locate
the information that you are looking for.
For aditional information and possible updates on Chess
Captor I advice you to visit the Chess Captor Home Page
on the Internet at:

INSTALLING CHESS CAPTOR
--------------------------------------
Chess Captor is very easy to install. Chess Captor comes
in two versions:
- CCAP120S.ZIP and
- CCAP120B.ZIP
IF YOU ARE NEW TO CHESS CAPTOR
In this case you should download (have downloaded)
CCAP120S.ZIP because file this contains the setup
program that will install the ocx and dlls needed.
Once you have downloaded CCAP120S.ZIP, unzip the
files contained in CCAP120S.ZIP into a temporary
directory. Double click the file setup.exe in
Windows Explorer or select start on the taskbar
and click on "Run...". In the dialog box that
appears typ the path to the setup.exe file.
Setup will now prompt you to select a directory where
you would like to install Chess Captor. The default
destination is to \program files\ChessCaptor. Setup
will create a shortcut for Chess Captor on your task
bar.
Once you have succesfully installed Chess Captor it is
safe to delete all the files you unzipped into the
temporary directory.
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE VERSION 1.10
You can upgrade to version 1.20 by unzipping all files
contained in CCAP120B.ZIP into the directory where Chess
Captor 1.10 resides. Select yes when asked to
replace/overwrite existing files.
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE VERSION 1.0x
If you have any of the versions 1.00, 1.01 or 1.02 on
your computer it is advisable to uninstall that version
first. You can these versions as follows:
Click Start on the taskbar on select Control Panel. In
the Control panel window double click the icon named
"Add-Remove Programs". Another windows will appear
containing a list with names of programs. If you see
Chess Captor listed then double click on Chess Captor.
That's it.
If you do not see "Chess Captor" written in the list
but do have Chess Captor on your system you can just
delete the old Chess Captor files. They are:
* camra2.wav
* Chess Captor.rio
* Chess Captor.hlp
* Chess Captor.cnt
* Chess Captor.gid
* Chess Captor.exe
* Chess Captor.ini
* hit.wav
* license.txt
* readme.txt
* register.rtf
* sfit2.wav
* wow.wav
Plus the following files if they exist:
* Chess Captor.ftg
* Chess Captor.fts
Now please follow the steps described in "IF YOU ARE
NEW TO CHESS CAPTOR".
REGISTRATION
-------------------
Chess Captor is not free software. It is released as
shareware, which provides the opportunity for the
program to be evaluated before it is purchased.
I hope that when you try Chess Captor you will like it
so much that you will want to register it.
Complete information on how to register Chess Captor is
included in the REGISTER.RTF file. You can view and
print the file from most text editors such as Wordpad or
MS Word.
TROUBLESHOOTING
--------------------------
If you are having troubles starting Chess Captor and get
messages stating that windows cannot find certain dlls
then please read the following.
Chess Captor (Setup version) 'ships' without the
following dlls although it needs them all:
- msvcrt20.dll
- msvcrt40.dll
- mfc40.dll
- vb40032.dll
These dlls were excluded because in most cases they
are already on your hard disk and because their file size
is quite large. If you need any of these dlls you can get
them on the Chess Captor's Home Page at:
http://yi.com/home/MagneeMichiel/captor.htm
