INSTALLING KIDWARE
***********************************************
1. Put the kidware diskette in drive A or B. From DOS type INSTALL
and press ENTER. Or, from Windows, use the File Manager to double
click on INSTALL.BAT in either A or B drive.
The Install program creates a directory called KIDWARE on your C drive.
2. To set up an icon in Windows for any of these games:
From Program Manager, click on the File Menu.
Click on New from the drop down menu.
If you want to open a special window, click on New Group
and call it KIDWARE. Then reselect New.. from the File menu to add
the various programs.
Select New Program from the dialog box.
For Deal a Fortune, type DEAL A FORTUNE in the Description
box and C:\KIDWARE\DEAL.EXE in the box below.
For Wordwiz, type WORDWIZ for the description and C:\KIDWARE\WORDWIZ.EXE
in the box below.
To install NUMERO, type NUMERO in the description field and
C:\KIDWARE\NUMERO.EXE in the command line field.
IF YOU ARE WISHING TO ADD WORDS TO DEAL A FORTUNE, you will also need to
add a file called ADD-FORT.EXE to your Kidware window.
