WHAT IS NOTEWARE?
NoteWare is the ultimate DOS notepad. It is a memory resident
program: pop it up anytime just by pressing two keys. After
you pop it up, you can choose to either write a new note or
see the ones you've already written. You'll never lose your
notes -- they are automatically saved on disk. NoteWare is
simple enough that you should be up and running in just a few
minutes.
NoteWare's powerful features enable you to:
-- Write as many screen-size notes as you wish.
-- Cut, copy, and paste any block of text.
-- Search through the notes for a string of text.
-- Export a block of text from a note to a word processor.
-- Grab anything on your PC's screen. Import it into a note
or save it as an ASCII file.
-- View any ASCII file on your disk, scroll through it, or
search for a string of text within it. Export a block of
text from the file directly into your word processor, or
import it into a note.
-- Select notes from a menu.
-- Save notes as ASCII files.
-- Print notes using the PRINTNW program.
-- Choose the hotkey combination that works best for you.
NoteWare should not interfere with other programs, as it uses
only 16K and can be loaded into high memory.

UPGRADING FROM NOTEWARE 1.X
Follow the instructions in the UPGRADE.DOC file if you have
NoteWare 1.x.
AUTOMATIC INSTALLATION
Automatic installation will create a directory on your hard
disk and copy its files to that directory. It will
optionally load NoteWare each time you boot.
Put the NoteWare disk into drive A:. Type A: <Enter> at the
DOS prompt. Then type INSTALL<Enter> and answer the two
questions asked by the Installation Program.
DO-IT-YOURSELF INSTALLATION
If you prefer to install NoteWare yourself, create a new
directory and copy NoteWare's files into it. Be sure to
add the directory to the DOS search path.
For instance, if you create a directory named C:\NOTE, type
the following command: COPY A:\*.* C:\NOTE
(This assumes your floppy disk is in drive A:. Use B: if
appropriate.)
STARTUP
At the C: prompt, type NoteWare and press the <Enter> key.
You will see the following message:
╔═════════════════════════════════════╗
║ NoteWare is now resident. ║
║ Press Alt-spacebar to activate. ║
║ To unload: type NOTEWARE/U <Enter> ║
╚═════════════════════════════════════╝
This message indicates NoteWare has been successfully
loaded into memory. When you want to activate NoteWare,
hold down the Alt key and press the spacebar. NoteWare's
Welcome Screen will greet you. Please read the Welcome
Screen, then start using NoteWare.
If you don't want NoteWare to occupy conventional memory, read
the "ADVANCED STARTUP" in the MANUAL.DOC file.

THE MANUAL
To print NoteWare's 16-page manual, type the following at the
DOS prompt: COPY MANUAL.DOC PRN
UNLOADING NOTEWARE
To unload NoteWare, type NOTEWARE /U at the DOS prompt.
Before you unload it, be sure that NoteWare is the last memory
resident program loaded.
You do not need to unload NoteWare each time you turn off your
computer. This option is provided for a variety of reasons:
you may want to defragment your hard disk (see "A Few No-No's,
page 14 of the manual), use the memory occupied by NoteWare, etc.
HOW TO PRINT THIS FILE
Type the following at the DOS prompt: COPY README.1ST PRN
