Use of this program constitutes your acceptance of that Agreement. *********************************************************************** OVERVIEW ======== DTSetup installs DragText version 1.1 and enables your 6-week free trial of DragText's Extended features. It can be used later to uninstall DragText. A list of the files included in the archive file (DRGTXT11.ZIP) appears at the end of this file. *********************************************************************** INSTALL ======== The main window displays your options for installing DragText. Install Paths ------------- The default Source path is the directory containing DTSetup. DTSetup expects to find all of its files in this directory. The default Destination path is a subdirectory on your boot drive named \DRGTXT11. You can change this to any new or existing directory, including the source directory. Note: DTSetup can only create one new subdirectory. Program Objects --------------- DTSetup will optionally create a program object to run DragText and place it in your Startup or Desktop folders. If you choose both, the original will go in Startup and a shadow will be placed on the Desktop. Note: If your Startup folder already contains a program object for a previous version of DragText, you will have to delete it yourself because DTSetup has no way to identify it. Default Icon Source ------------------- To avoid wasting your disk space, DragText files share a single icon. You can choose what will supply this icon: - a WPS Class: DTSetup will install the DTFile class. This is the better choice in most cases because it lets you associate DragText files with any editor, including the "Text View" provided by other add-ons. - a Program Object: DTSetup will create a program object for your text editor in the System Setup folder, associate it with DragText files, and assign it DragText's default file icon. Note: You can easily change the default icon regardless of which method you choose. For the WPS class, create an icon file named "MYFILE.ICO" and put it in your DragText directory. For the program object, drop your icon onto the General page of the program object's notebook. Install ------- Press the Install button when you have made your choices. DTSetup will: - rename the files and copy them to the destination directory - create a program object for DragText - either install the DTFile class or create a program object titled "DT Editor" - place entries in your OS2.INI file to disable DragText for programs that are known to be incompatible with it - display some general information about DragText, plus warnings about that apply to your specific system DTSetup will advise you if it completes successfully. When you finish reading the information window, you can press its Close button and DTSetup will exit. If DTSetup encounters errors, it will also advise you. Pressing the message window's OK button will return you to the main window in case the error is something you can correct. After a successful installation, you can load DragText v1.1 and use it immediately, provided you do not have an earlier version already running. If so, you must remove the old version's program object from your Startup folder, then restart your system. Be sure to run DragText a second time to display its Options notebook so you can become familiar with its many features and view its online help. Have fun... *********************************************************************** UNINSTALL ========= To remove DragText partially or completely, press the Uninstall button on the main window. The Uninstall window will appear, containing check boxes for the five items which DTSetup can remove from your system. Only those items which DTSetup can locate will be checked. They are: - Program Objects: the program objects for DragText that DTSetup created during installation. If you deleted these and later created new ones, DTSetup will not be able to locate them; you will have to delete them yourself - Entries in OS2.INI: this is always checked, even if there are none - DTFile WPS class: if you had this installed, DTSetup will deregister this class. It will probably remain in memory until you reboot. - DT Editor: the program object for your editor associated with DragText files, if you chose to install it. DTSetup will destroy this object and break any associations it had. - Program Files: this includes all of DragText's executables and documentation that are in the same directory as DTSetup. If this directory is empty after these deletions, it will be deleted too. DTSetup will not delete any files that you have created. DTSetup will advise you whether it was successful in removing the items listed above. Note: If you choose to delete all files, DTSetup will delete itself. *********************************************************************** FILE LIST ========= Files included in DRGTXT11.ZIP ------------------------------ DRGTXT11.001 DRGTXT11.002 DRGTXT11.003 DRGTXT11.004 DRGTXT11.005 DTSETUP.EXE DTSETUP.TXT README.DRG FILE_ID.DIZ *** end of DTSETUP.TXT *************************************************
