About UniQWK:
~~~~~~~~~~~~
UniQWK is not a free software. You can test it for one
month. If you decide to use it, after a trial period, you must
get a license. A license for the use of UniQWK can be
obtained by sending a $30.00 (American dollars) registration
fee.
Regarding the Shareware registration. There is only one
reminder box just to stimulate you about the registration. This
is NOT a crippled version of the program.
The license fee paid for UniQWK is a one time fee. The
licence legalizes your use of the program and keep you free from the
borring reminder box and taglines. Licensed users can use future
revisions of UniQWK without aditional fee.
If the registration response is good then we'll have
the incentive to keep improving the program. It is very nice to
know that some of you like what we've done, but it's better to
receive some money... Anyway, your comments and suggestions
are greatly appreciated.
UniQWK must be copied in an unmodified form and contain
all files as described at "This ZIP file contains".
Public Domain Disk Vendors and distributors of public domain
and user suported software may not charge a fee for UniQWK itself.
However you may include UniQWK on a diskette for which you charge a
nominal distribution fee. The purchaser of said diskette must be
informed in advance that the fee paid to acquire the diskette
does NOT relieve said purchaser from paying the Registration Fee
for UniQWK.
Operators of electronic bulletin board systems (Sysops) may
post UniQWK for downloading by their users without written permission
only as long as the above conditions are met. A fee may be charged for
access to the BBS as long as no specific fee is charged for downloading
UniQWK files.
BBS Operators (Sysops) can get a special (free!)
license if they post this software for downloading - contact us.
How to Install
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Copy MRPACK.PIF and MRUNPACK.PIF into your Windows directory.
- Copy UNIQWK.EXE, UNIQWK.HLP and BCWTERM.FNT into a directory
created specifically.
- Create a work directory (EX: c:\mr). Keep it empty and
doesn't use it to anything else. UniQWK will erase it.
- Run Windows, if you still are at old DOS prompt.
- With Program Manager, set UniQWK into any group of your choice
- Run UniQWK.
- You MUST choose the "CONFIG" menu before reading any .QWK
packet, in order to set the default directories. Special care
with the "work directory", UniQWK clears this directory, so use
it only for UniQWK.
- Check, with PIF Editor, if the .PIF files are correct for
your system and if the compress/uncompress programs of your
choice are correct.
- Set Message Editor, colors, etc.
- For more information, use the Help Facilities.
- Open any .QWK using appropriate option on FILE menu and enjoy.
- UniQWK doesn't use .NDX files, so you can disable index files
generation (see your BBS configuration) and save your time.

If you are upgrading from version 1.0, you need only replace old files
UNIQWK.EXE and UNIQWK.HLP by the new ones. No change is necessary in your
configuration file.
