1..Purpose

        Allows connected stations to add their details to your
        ADDRESS.TXT file

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

2..Installation

        Copy all files to C:\WINPACK\EXTERN 
        
        Files List:  REG.EXE     3,968 bytes  main program
                     REG.PIF       967 bytes
                     REG.DOC               
        
        The program will only work in the C:\WINPACK\EXTERN directory
        so if you have installed WINPACK to a different directory such
        as C:\RADIO\WINPACK then this program will not work for you .

        You can then amend your connect text to notify people of the 
        addition of this server to your system

   eg.  WINPACK v6.1, /HELP for help, /REG to record your details

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

3..How do I access it

        Just type /REG while connected to WINPACK from remote or from 
        the WINPACK screen

        Remeber external programs require WinPack versions > 5.1

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

4..The Pif File 

        The supplied .PIF file was set up under WIN95 and should be OK for 
        anyone using WINPACK under WIN95 installed in C:\WINPACK . If you
        installed WINPACK to a directory other than C:\WINPACK you *MUST*
        setup the REG.PIF file properly

        In the .PIF file the command line should be:

                   <drive> <path> REG.EXE

        and the working directory should be:

                   <drive> <path> extern\

        where <drive> is the dirve letter of the drive that WINPACK is
        installed on and <path> is the path to the WINPACK directory so
        as an example if you installed in D:\RADIO\WINPACK youe command
        line would be  D:\RADIO\WINPACK\REG.EXE and the working directory
        would be D:\RADIO\WINPACK\EXTERN\

        I have tried the program under WIN 3.* and it seems to run OK . 
        There are sometimes problems with the report sent back to the user
        as to what details have been recorded . If you use it under 3.* 
        let me know what happens and I will try to tidy it up if there are 
        problems .

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

5..About

        REG.EXE and is still crude and simple but seems to work .
        Anyway if it thrashes your ADDRESS.TXT or causes your cat to have
        kittens I accept no responsibility .
        
        If you have problems then let me know and I will see if I can 
        solve the problem for you . One known problem is that it is not
        too worried about neat formatting of its entries in ADDRESS.TXT

       V1.00
            First release (or is the word escape?)
     
       v1.01
            Consolidation of REG.EXE and REG1.COM into a single program
            Removal of REG.BIN
            Minor updates to texts used

       v1.02
            Removed the path dependency and the server should now work with
            any WINPACK directory that it is installed to instead of just
            the C:\WINPACK directory
