*****VERSION 1.30 CMPQwk Reader Readme.txt***** Changes: Lots of them. Support for Internet addresses and many other improvements. Poke around in the program and you'll see what has changed since 1.14. If you are upgrading from a previous version, just copy the updated files into your CMPQwk directory. Be sure CMPQwk is NOT running when you do this, or nasty things will happen and you'll curse a lot. Copy the new OPTION.DLL file to your Windows\System directory if your CMPQwk directory isn't in your path. If you are installing a completely new copy of the program, unpack the files CQWK131A.ZIP and CQWK131B.ZIP into a temporary directory (anywhere on your hard disk where you have the space). From the Windows Program Manager pick File, Run, and either click browse to locate SETUP.EXE inside the temporary directory, or type the path to the temporary directory and setup (C:\TEMP\SETUP.EXE). When setup loads, it will ask you from where it is installing. Make sure it has the correct directory listed and then click on OK (or press Enter). It will ask you where you'd like to install CMPQwk, so type the path where you'd like it to install (the default is C:\CMPQWK). Setup will copy some files and create a CMPQWK.INI file in your Windows directory. It will also prompt you to add a CMPQWK icon if Program Manager is your shell. Select the group in which to add it and click OK. When it's finished, it will tell you and then you may exit. Delete the files inside the temporary directory. The first time you run the program it will open a sample packet. Browse through the sample packet and when you're through, click on the Options menu and go confirm all of the program's paths and settings (see the help file for detailed instructions about this). The most important settings are QWK, REP, and WORK paths. Everything else can be changed to your taste after you've used the program a bit. If you are upgrading you may delete the old 001-009.* files. They may have the extension DLL or SND, depending on the version you have. Non- registered users will have DLLl, registered users closely following the beta program will have SND files. From now on, CMPQwk will use WAV files for sound so the user can replace the original sound functions with those more to his or her liking. *** If you have any comments regarding this release, please feel free to contact the author, Derek Backus, on one of the support sites or via the various means mentioned in this file and the rest of the program's documentation.
