INSTALLING Crypto! ------------------ Installation is easy. First, you must unpack the archive file containing the distribution (if you're reading this, you have done that already). You should have the following files: crypto.exe executable Windows program crypto.cqt quote/phrase file crypto.cqi quote/phrase index file crypto.txt the file you are reading now register.txt registration form bwcc.dll Borland C++ support routines Copy the files "crypto.exe", "crypto.cqt" and "crypto.cqi" to any directory you wish; they must reside in the same directory. Bwcc.dll may be put in this same directory or the windows\system directory. To start Crypto!, open the File Manager, display the directory containing "crypto.exe". Now double-click your mouse on "crypto.exe", or use File|Run and enter the command "crypto". Should you decide to register Crypto!, you may wish to add it to one of the groups in the Program Manager. Here is how that is done: 1) Open the group to which you have chosen to add Crypto!. 2) Select File|New from the Program Manager. 3) Verify that the box which appears says "New Program Item", and click OK. 4) Enter the following values: Description: Crypto! Command Line: crypto.exe Working Directory: (the directory where you put crypto.exe and crypto.qot) 5) Click the OK button. Now Crypto! can be started merely by double-clicking its icon in the group to which you added it. Thank you for trying out Crypto!, and I hope you enjoy it. Remember to register the program if you wish to use it past the trial period! K.
