This patch file has been released to take your shareware copy of Telix for Windows and convert it to an un-registered v1.01a. To apply this patch, please follow the directions below precisely: 1) Place the files PATCH.EXE and PATCH.RTP in the same directory that you keep TELIX.EXE and APROW.DLL in. Exit Windows. This patch program MUST be run when Windows is not loaded. 2) Run the PATCH.EXE program. Your screen will look somewhat like the following, but may differ depending on the revision of Telix you are patching (the patch program may patch more files than are shown in this example) : ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ PATCH Version 2.01 - .RTPatch(R) Software Update System (C) Copyright Pocket Soft, Inc., 1991-1994.

Because we did not want to overwrite any modifications you might have made, the patch program will NOT automatically update these files, though they HAVE been corrected in some cases. A complete set of *.KBD keyboard macros and terminal emulation keyboard sequences can be found in the included file KBDFILES.ZIP. A newer, updated host mode that more closely resembles the documentation may be found in the included file WINHOST.ZIP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: I get the following error message when applying the patch: error ept0036: Original file not found. However, a file of the same name was found. No update done since file checksums do not match. A: PATCH was unable to locate an exact match for the original file to be updated. This message may also be caused by several situations: A TSR could be interfering with your system and its ability to read the original file from disk. Programs known to cause PATCH.EXE to generate this error are Stacker and DoubleSpace, some disk caches, some CD-ROM drivers, and some anti-viral software. Anything loaded in your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT can potentially cause this error. Each can cause the checksum of the file you have to differ from the checksum of the file we used to build the patch. You may have also forgotten to exit Windows before running PATCH. Please try to remove these items from memory if PATCH gives you this error, and then start over at step 2. The best way to do this is to boot from a bootable floppy drive that has NO CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT. If all the above steps fail, please upload your TELIX.EXE file to deltaComm Online at 919-481-9399 and we will look into the possibility of adding support to the patch for your revision. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
