To install Cool Edit, copy (or unzip) all the files into their own program
directory (such as C:\COOL95).  From Explorer, find COOL95.EXE and drag it to
create a shortcut somewhere, or right-click on the desktop, choose Create
Shortcut, and then find COOL95.EXE.  

NOTICE TO REGISTERED USERS OF PREVIOUS VERSIONS:  You will need a new number
to use Cool Edit 95 if you registered at version 1.50 or below.  E-mail your
name and address to syntrill@aol.com to request a new number free of charge.

This is a beta version of Cool Edit 95, which means we are not sure if all
the bugs (if any) have been found.  If you notice any strange behavior or find
anything that you might consider a bug, please let us know.  Also, this beta
preview includes the MPEG file format, which will be available separately
in the final version.

This beta version expires on 2/29/96, at which time you should get an update
from our web or ftp site.
