Welcome!  If you have used previous FreshFish and GoldFish CDs you will
notice that there are major changes for this GoldFish release.  Please
take a few moments to read this short file.

First, the user interface has improved substantially.  Most icons now have
MetaTool as their default, which allows you to decide which tool you would
like to use to view text files, AmigaGuide files, pictures, etc.  You will
have the opportunity to select these tools during the installation process
if you select average or expert mode.

Second, there is a new Installer script that takes care of the details of
preparing your system to use the GoldFish CD.  Unlike previous releases
it is no longer necessary to change or add any startup scripts and reboot
prior to using GoldFish.  Simply run the Installer script and start ex-
ploring.  The installation will make no permanent changes to your system
without asking you to confirm them, even in novice mode.

Third, many more things are now accessible via AmigaGuide, making GoldFish
much more user friendly.  You can explore much of the CD, including read-
ing documentation, running Install scripts, running programs, viewing pic-
tures, running animations, searching for specific material, etc, without
ever leaving AmigaGuide or touching a CLI window.

There are other changes as well, but these are documented in the top level
README.guide file.  You should now run the INSTALL script to start using
GoldFish.  Since the INSTALL script will make no permanent changes to the
system, it is safe to run it in novice mode if you wish.

Have fun!
