Jixxa README.TXT 
                              ----------------
                    
  Hello and welcome to the Jixxa software package  from  Rhode  Island  Soft
  Systems, Inc.!
   
  This  package  contains  Jixxa, the premier Jigsaw Puzzle game for Windows
  3.1, plus 2 fun jigsaw puzzles to get you going.  This package contains an
  automated installation utility, and  interactive  on-line help.  It should
  be noted that registered users of Jixxa receive the full retail version of
  Jixxa which contains everything in this shareware version PLUS several new
  game features, and 4 more jigsaw puzzles!
  
  The Jixxa puzzles in this package are intended for 256 color  displays, so
  if you only have a 16 color display, you will not see the  full  beauty of
  the images.  Of course, the game will still work, but not in the  intended
  manner.  You can verify your color setting in the "Help... About..."  box.
  
  The 2 puzzles in this package are made with "Large" and "Small" pieces. 
  The registered version ships with additional, different piece sizes as 
  well ("Medium" and "Tiny"), for more variety.
  
  The following information will guide  you  through  installing  the  Jixxa
  files.   Once installed, the SETUP program will create a program group and
  install icons for the documentation files,  which you can read by clicking
  on the document's icon.


                           VERIFICATION OF FILES
                           ---------------------
                        
  At this point, please look for all of the files that belong to  the  Jixxa
  package.   All  of  the  files  are  listed in the file PACKING.TXT If the
  PACKING.TXT file or any of  the  files  listed in PACKING.TXT are missing,
  please contact us for an official copy of Jixxa -- it would not be fair to
  either the user or Rhode  Island  Soft  Systems,  Inc.   to  have  a  user
  evaluate an incomplete package.


                              INSTALLING JIXXA
                              ----------------
                          
  From Program Manager's main window, select "File".  This will cause a menu
  to drop down.  Next, select "Run...".  A dialog box will pop up requesting
  a "Command Line".
  
  If  the  Jixxa files are on a floppy disk, insert the diskette into the A:
  or B: drive,  as  appropriate  and  type  either "A:\SETUP" or "B:\SETUP",
  respectively.  We must execute the "SETUP" program located on  the disk.
  
  If  the  Jixxa  files  are  in a directory on a hard drive, enter the full
  drive and directory path to  where  the  Jixxa files are located, such as:
  "C:\DOWNLOAD\TEMP\SETUP".  Please note  that  these  are  just  samples -- 
  subsititue the proper drive and directory, as appropriate.  

  After entering the command to execute SETUP, press the ENTER key or  click
  on the "OK" button.  At this point SETUP will handle the entire process of
  installing the Jixxa files.
