Updated August 25, 1996

Note: You should view this file with a Windows program (e.g. Notepad or
WordPad) in order to see the special characters.

What 3-D Keyboard Does
======================
3-D Keyboard makes it simple to type all the characters in your fonts, not
just the ones shown on your keyboard. While using any Windows application,
3-D Keyboard lets you easily type: West European languages (à á â ã ä å æ
ç ñ ß ¡ ¿ etc.), fractions (¼ ½ ¾), currency symbols (¢ £ ¥), math symbols
(± × ÷), typographical symbols (‘ ’ § ¶ · etc.) and many other useful
symbols (© ® ° etc.). Dead keys are supported for typing accented letters.

Thirteen keyboard layouts are provided. You can switch layouts with a
keypress and customize them using a visual drag and drop procedure. The
window displays a map of the current layout, which you can resize and keep
on top of other windows if you like. When you shrink it to an icon, the
icon indicates which layout is active.

Installation and System Requirements
====================================
3-D Keyboard 2.5 requires Windows 95, NT, or 3.1 and 300 KB of disk space.
To install, run the program 3DKBInst.EXE (under Windows 95 or NT 4.0,
choose Start/Run from the Taskbar; under Windows 3.1 or NT 3.51, choose
File/Run from Program Manager's menu).

License and Ordering
====================
This is an evaluation version. It is fully functional at first, but will
stop working after 45 days. To continue using it after that, you may
purchase 3-D Keyboard for $25 plus shipping. If you do not need a disk and
manual, then you can just purchase a password for $20. The online help
system contains ordering instructions and a printable order form that you
can use for mail or fax orders. Telephone orders may be placed by calling
Fingertip Software at (800) 209-4063 or (210) 659-2532.

The file 3DKB25.ZIP may be freely distributed in unmodified form so long as
you do not charge anything for it beyond a reasonable amount to reimburse
your cost of duplication and distribution.

Upgrading from Version 2.4
==========================
If you have purchased 3-D Keyboard 2.4, this evaluation version serves as a
free upgrade to 2.5. Simply install it on a machine where 2.4 is currently
installed, and the time limitation will be removed. You may also purchase
the full version 2.5 package (with disk and manual) for the following
prices, which include shipping and tax:
