- QReader 3.1 Copyright 1991-1993 Yandell Computer Services
-
- QReader provides many unique and various aspects to displaying text
- to callers. It has many features such as PageUp, PageDn, and even
- left and right scrolling for wide text! QReader has several very
- fast text search features such as searching while reading individual
- text items, or global text searches from QReader's main menu. Also
- available is a text download facility which features automated file
- directory maintenance.
-
- QReader works with many types of BBS software, including PCBoard,
- Wildcat!, and systems which make a DOOR.SYS door information file.
-
- QUICK.DOC is NOT a replacement for QREADER.DOC. It allows you to
- QUICKLY install QReader and locally see and test its powerful, high
- quality features. You may then completely install QReader using the
- detailed information contained in QREADER.DOC.
-
- Follow these step-by-step instructions.
- ---------------------------------------
-
- _____ Make a directory for QReader. It is best to call it QREADER.
- It will be easier if this is a directory off the drive's root rather
- than being buried under other directories.
-
- _____ Extract QREAD31.ZIP into your \QREADER directory.
-
- _____ Make a sub-directory off the \QREADER directory called SAMPLE.
- You should now have a structure that is \QREADER\SAMPLE.
-
- _____ Extract the contents of SAMPLE.ZIP into \QREADER\SAMPLE. The
- file SAMPLE.ZIP will be in your \QREADER directory after extracting
- QREAD31.ZIP there.
-
- _____ In your \QREADER directory, run QRSETUP.EXE. Select option #1
- to edit the MAIN QReader parameters. Use the F1 help key at each
- question for a further explanation.
-
- _____ Press ESC and answer Y to save the settings.
-
- _____ Now select option #2 at the setup menu to modify TEXT config
- files. Then select E to Edit a file. Then select SAMPLE.CNF by high-
- lighting it with the cursor keys and pressing [ENTER]. Note there
- are four parameters in the center of the screen with a drive and
- locations in them (C:\QREADER\SAMPLE\.....). Make sure this drive
- and locations match the drive and locations you have selected for
- QREADER. If changes are needed, (such as the drive letter) make them
- accordingly. Do not alter the actual file names at this time.
-
- _____ Press PgDn at the SAMPLE.CNF edit screen. Another screen will
- appear with additional parameters. Notice two more parameters with
- (C:\QREADER\SAMPLE...) in them. Again make sure this information is
- correct, but do not alter any file names at this time.
-
- _____ Press ESC and answer Y to save the settings.
-
- _____ Now select option #4 at the setup menu to run QReader locally.
- Select SAMPLE.CNF again, answer Y to use color (or N for no color).
-
- _____ If these instructions have been followed properly, you will
- enter the QReader door and be able to explore it in local mode.
-
- Remember to use "H" for help when needed, especially while reading
- text in the Full Screen Reader.
