C. Program notes
----------------

1. To improve execution speed, WaveGen does not perform any stack
   checking.  Sufficient resources must be available to run WaveGen.

2. To uninstall, simply delete the WaveGen directory (default C:\WAVGEN11)
   and delete the file WAVEGEN.INI in the default WINDOWS directory. No
   other files will be effected.  If you have registered, make sure you
   keep a copy of your registration notification which contains your user
   ID and validation key.

3. WaveGen v1.1 has been successfully tested on Windows NT 3.5 and
   Windows 95 beta.


D. Known limitations
--------------------

1. Norton Desktop for Windows ver 3.0+
   Using Delete or Rename from File Assist when in an open or
   save dialog results in a general protection fault. Not quite
   sure why this happens and have not been able to correct it.

2. Slow execution when generating
   Without a co-processor, a 386 or 486SX may take a long
   time to generate waves. This is particularly so when creating
   44khz/16 bit tone sequences. In these situations, use 8khz/8 bit
   while experimenting, then use the higher resolution for your
   final generation.

3. Slow video redraw
   Some combinations of video cards/drivers and slower machines
   may result in very slow redraws in the wave display window.
   This also occurs if your disk drive is sluggish. Consider
   a graphics accelerator card.

4. Windows PCM (RIFF) file format
   WaveGen can read only the simplest sub-set of the RIFF file
   format. WaveGen will not read wave files with additional
   info chunks, cue points, play lists, etc. To import these files,
   use a wave editor to strip out these fields.
