2. PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS:
	XFile requires Windows 3.1 or higher to operate; a mouse
	is highly recommended for the file operations of the program.

3. PROGRAM INSTALLATION:
        While XFile may be run from a floppy disk, it is highly advisable
	that the application program, XFILE.EXE, and the help file,
	XFILE.HLP, be copied to any convenient location on your hard drive.
	It also suggested that XFile be placed in your Windows "StartUp"
	group so it is always available on the desktop.

	XFile makes NO changes to any DOS or Windows configuration files.
	It does create a parameter file called XFILE.INI, which is placed
	in the default Windows directory (usually C:\WINDOWS).

4. "UNINSTALLING" XFILE:
	If you wish to delete XFile from your system, simply delete the
	following files from your system: XFILE.EXE, XFILE.HLP, and
	XFILE.INI (this file is placed in your default Windows directory,
	usually C:\WINDOWS).

5. ORDERING INFORMATION:
	As noted above, XFile is offered to the user as shareware.  If
	you find the program to be of value and continue to use it, you
	are expected to pay the registration fee.  XFile is also offered
	in an enhanced or professional edition, sporting more features
	and utilities.  Ordering information can be found within the XFile
	help file (XFILE.HLP) or within the accompanying ORDER.TXT file.
