IMPORTANT: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS!! PLEASE READ NOW!!

To enjoy the reports in the shareware archive JAPN5WN.ZIP, 
unarchive the ZIP file to a directory of your choice and name 
this directory so that it will be easy to remember, perhaps
\japan. IF YOU HAVE THE REGISTERED VERSION OF EARLY MYTH AND 
AMATERASU IN NEOLITHIC AND MEDIEVAL JAPAN, COPY ALL FILES 
FROM EACH OF THE DISKS TO THIS WORKING DIRECTORY. The book 
and glossary are contained in three files with a special, 
proprietary format. These files, which can be identified by 
the .rpl extension, must be viewed and printed with REPLICA, 
a state of the art document viewing and printing system for 
Windows that a) eliminates the need to own any Windows word 
processor and b) preserves the formatting, design and graphics 
which were part of the original document.  

YOU MUST FIRST START REPLICA ITSELF WHICH IS EMBEDDED IN THE FILE 
JPREADME.EXE. YOU MUST BEGIN WITH JPREADME.EXE AS REPLICA IS NOT 
CONTAINED IN ANY OF THE OTHER FILES IN THIS ARCHIVE. If you 
attempt to view .rpl files in any other text viewer or word 
processor they either will not open or you will only see unreadable 
garbage on the screen. After placing all your files in the \japan 
directory, start Windows (if you have not already done so) and open 
File Manager or whichever shell program you use for directory and 
file viewing. Open the file list display of the directory \japan. 
SIMPLY DOUBLE CLICK ON THE ICON FOR JPREADME.EXE IN THE FILE LIST 
WINDOW. THAT IS ALL THERE IS TO IT!  REPLICA will start and display 
the file jpreadme. Please read it in its entirety: it contains much 
useful information. 

You may now read each of the documents that comprise EARLY MYTH 
AND AMATERASU IN NEOLITHIC AND MEDIEVAL JAPAN. View each .rpl 
file by using Open on the Replica File Menu. Replica has a well
written Help Menu. If opening, viewing, searching and printing
files is not intuitive; USE THE HELP MENU! REMEMBER THAT EACH 
DOCUMENT HAS THE EXTENSION .RPL NOT .DOC. You may, of course, set 
up a program item within a group of your choice for jpreadme.exe 
as you would for any executable program. If you do so, EARLY MYTH 
AND AMATERASU IN NEOLITHIC AND MEDIEVAL JAPAN will now be resident 
within Windows as would any program and you only need click on its 
icon in order to start REPLICA. The preview of the E-book in the
shareware version is japn15sh.rpl. The E-Book in the registered 
version consists of three files: japn15b1.rpl (pp 1-29) and 
japn15b2.rpl (pp 30-96). The glossary is the file jpglossh.rpl 
(shareware) or jpgls15b.rpl (registered version). The filenames
given in jpreadme may be slightly different than these. These
filenames are the latest versions of each file and are most
accurate.  
 

I do hope you become intrigued enough to register. If you do
so, you will receive the complete 96 page illustrated book plus
an illustrated copy of the glossary. This book is not available
in a paper edition; it is an original E-Book. The file jp15reg.rpl 
is the order form. A complete catalog of all the publications
of Reality Software may be found at the end of jpreadme and
also in the ASCII file catalog.txt.
