- Description
- -----------
-
- VitalConnect is a combined Program Launcher and Internet Connection

-
- All seven programs MUST be in the `VitalConnect` directory!
-
- IDEAL

- o AmigaOS 2.0 (37) or higher
-
- o An AMIGA.....`020 or better
-
- o A Modem.........the faster the better but not less than 14,400bps
-
- o A 256 colour Workbench (Purely asthetic for the program, but necessary for the Net really!)
-
- RECOMMENDED
-

- |
- o Dopus (at least 4.1 (given away on Coverdisks)) |
- |
- o VoyagerNG (Demo) (Coverdisks) |

- o AmiFTP (Demo)(included!) | you use them regularly!....
- |
- o YAM Mailer (included) |
- |
- o Archiver(Demo) (included) _|
-
- o AmIRC (30day Demo)(Then if you use it you should register!)
-
- o......Most of these programs utilise MUI V3.6 or higher!...........
-
-
- Installation
- ------------
-
- `VitalConnect Install` (requires Commodore's Installer), will
- automatically take care of all installation necessary to make the
- program `plug`n`play` and make it automatically start it`s NetLink
- dock upon `REBOOT`!
- The Voyager demo and your version of Dopus should be installed or
- dragged into the `VitalConnect` directory now on your hard drive!
- Thats all there is to it!
-
-
- Usage
- -----
-
- "Click and Play." The buttons are self-explanatory in the `Main`
- window and the icons to the left of those buttons are transferred
- to the `NetLink` window to accomplish the same functions!
- Both `Close` buttons in and on the `NetLink` window will bring up
- the `Main` window, therfore, you can only quit VitalConnect completely
- from the `Main` window!
- The `SetUp` button brings up `Miami.Int` where Miami must be
- configured to your ISP (Internet Service Provider). Of course, in the
- FULL `VitalConnect Package`, Miami, AmiFTP and YAM will be pre-configured
- to your ISP, e-mail addresses and your OWN Website designed by
- SulliTech Online to your specifications.
-
- The FULL package is TRULY `Plug`n`Play Surfin` time!
-
- You will just click on `VitalConnect Install` then `REBOOT`, then all you
- have to do is click on `CONNECT`! Instantly on the Net, Instantly ready to
- collect your e-mails! Instantly able to upload and download to and from
- YOUR VERY OWN WEBSITE!, Aminet and others!
-
-
-
- Demo Limitations
-
- This demo is only limited by it`s inability to utilise the `NetLink`
- window. This limitation will be removed with a keyfile upon payment of

-
- History
- -------
-
- Version 1.4: Initial Release (July 15, 1998)
- Uploaded to AMINET
-
- Because there had to be a cheaper, faster, easier way!
-
- It occurred to me that not everyone knew their Amiga inside out, and
- that they just used it for enjoyment but, at the same time, would
- dearly like to `Surf the Net`, "if only they didn`t need to know
- anything about how to do it!"
-
- `VitalConnect` solves this problem! The user need do little or nothing
- to get on the Net!
-
-

- indirectly in developing this program and/or supported me in technical or
