1908C Tice Valley Blvd., suite 192 Walnut Creek, California 94595-2203 phone (+1-510)210-1603 E-mail 73707,1142@compuserve.com From: Peter Turnquist, June '96 To: beloved shareware distributors About: MasterMind Typing v1.06 Version 1.06 update deals with inconsistencies among Microsoft's Windows operating systems: 3.x, 95 and NT. HELP and SETUP adapt to whichever they find. Additional improvements: support for Dvorak and exotic keyboards, better user-interface, speed-building lessons for intermediate and advanced typists (besides lessons for beginners always served). I revoke the distribution license for older versions. My form for distribution is MMTYPE06.zip. Re-archiving to MMTYPE06.* is OK; so is de-archiving for distribution by diskette. MMTyping now exceeds 720K, that is, needs a high-density floppy. It is vital to include the full set of unaltered files in any distribution. If you suspect tampering or an out-of-date version, please contact me directly and give your e-mail address. I'll send you a current, clean MMTYPE*.zip. Unless we have a common mail service that handles binary files, you will need to UUdecode. Please never tamper with automated installation or impose any method that you use for other products. Even to add advice about installation would be unhelpful or misleading. Please rename HELP.bat to conform with your diskette label, if applicable, but change nothing else. If you prefer to write your .bat so it directs the user to my HELP.bat for installation advice, that should be all right too. Besides what you are reading, files of special interest to shareware professionals are: CATALOG.txt, product description, proven effective for your catalog entry. FILE_ID.diz, like CATALOG.txt but in BBS format. VENDINFO.* fuller support for automated distribution, including descriptions of several lengths as alternatives to CATALOG.txt. GRAPHICS.zip includes screen captures in both color and black-&-white to illustrate your catalog. REGISTER.txt, the registration form. The VENDINFO.* files offer distributors more support than FILE_ID.diz does. For the Vendinfo utilities if you lack them now, please contact: Rams' Island Software 7644 E.
