Current version: 2.4c

Changes in 2.4c
-the windows version is now able to split large files over
 multiple disks. The default maximum size for a compressed
 file is 1400 KB. To change this setting add the following
 lines to the RKINSTAL.INI file in the windows directory:

 [Compress]
 MaxSizeKB=1400

 and replace 1400 with the size of your choice in KB.

 *** Attention *** the file splitting is currently not
                   supported by the DOS version !!! 

 The different parts of the compressed file must be in
 the correct order on the distribution disks. That means
 that part two must be on a disk # greater then part one
 A valid exsample for a file in tree parts is:
 part 1 on disk #2; part 2 on disk #3 and part 3 on disk #5

 *** Attention *** all parts must be listed in the .inf file !

 The first part has the ending $, the second ends in a 0, the
 thrird in a 1 and so on. 

 ;description,name,(dir #),(sourcedir #),(diskette #),(Compressed),(AwRepl)
 Big File Part 1=bigfile.ex$	1 1 2 Y A
 Big File Part 2=bigfile.ex0    1 1 3 Y A
 Big File Part 3=bigfile.ex1    1 1 5 Y A

Changes in 2.4b

Syntax:

[Application]
TextColor=r:200 g:167 b:100
TopColor=b:255
BottomColor=r:100 b:60

; TextColor defines the color for the title. TopColor is the color of the
; background at the top of the screen and BottomColor is the background
; color at the bottom of the screen. All colors are RGB colors. You can
; specify values ranging from 0 to 255 for all color channels. If a color
; channel is not specified, the corresponding value is zero.
; TopColor=b:255 is the same as TopColor=r:0 g:0 b:255
; The program uses a color palette if available.

[Bitmaps]
1=pic1.bmp frame=40:20:70:65
2=pic2.bm$ frame=55:50:90:95 stretch

; The bitmap file pic1.bmp is displayed when the install program starts
; copying the files from disk #1. The file must be on disk 1 !
; The bitmap is displayed in a frame, defined by the upper left and the
; lower right corner. ( frame=left:top:right:bottom )
; All values are in % of the screen width and height. 
; eg. 50 means 50% of the screen dimensions. If you use a VGA display
; with 640 pixels this means pixel no. 320
; The bitmap is displayed in it's original dimension unless you add
; the optional stretch keyword.
; Currently the program supports only bitmaps with the 16 system colors
; or black and white bitmaps.
; To save disk space, you can compress the bitmaps.
;
; If you want to display more than one bitmap per disk, you can define
; pseudo disks.
;
; [Disks]
; 1=Install Disk 1
; 2=Install Disk 1
; 3=Install Disk 2
; 4=Install Disk 2
; 5=Install Disk 2
; 6=Install Disk 3
;
; If the user has to insert a new disk, the program displays the text
; defined in the disk section and not the disk number. In the above
; example you can have two bitmaps on disk 1, tree bitmaps on disk 2
; and one bitmap on disk 3.
; The program starts with the files on pseudo disk #1 (which is actually
; disk 1). Next it copys the files on pseudo disk #2 (which is also the
; physical disk 1). The program promps for the disk change only if it
; cannot find the file. The files of disk #2 are on the first disk so
; that there is no need for a change disk message. When the program comes
; to the files of disk #3 (who are on the second disk) it cannot find them
; and displays the change disk message for disk #3. In the disk section
; the message is defined as 3=Install Disk 2 and that means the user has
; the message 'insert Install Disk 2' on the screen.

[FileGroups]
1=Name of group 1
2=Name of Group 2
3=Name of Group 3
4=Name of group 4
selected=134              ; groups 1, 3 and 4 are preselected
always=13		  ; groups 1 and 3 are always selected and can
			  ; not be disabled
