│ This is a VENDINFO Product Information Record │
│ │
│ This record is a means of conveying information about a software │

│ normal, "human-readable" section (you're reading it now), followed │
│ by a compressed data record. The data record contains a great │
│ deal of information in a form useable by automated tools. This │
│ allows BBSes, disk vendors, etc. to test automatically for │
│ permission to distribute, and to automatically extract product │
│ information for use in BBS files databases, vendor catalogs, etc. │

│ The VENDINFO file standard is published and is freely useable. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO toolset includes a free end-user viewer, processing │

===== Installation =====================================
Installation
Bert's Coloring Programs require an IBM compatible computer with at
least 512K of memory, a VGA display and a Microsoft compatible mouse. A
Sound Blaster card is optional. The program installation process is
quite easy. (Users obtaining .ZIP files from the Internet or a BBS can
skip this installation section.)
First, make a backup copy of your Bert's Coloring Programs program
disk. If necessary consult your PC-DOS/MS-DOS manual for a description
of the DISKCOPY command. Save the original program disk in a safe place
and use the copy as the working program disk.
Second, while it is possible to use Bert's Coloring Programs on a
floppy disk system, a hard disk system is a necessity for reasonable
speed and storing a number of pictures your child has created. To
install Bert's Coloring Programs on a hard disk use the following steps:
1. Insert the floppy disk in your computer in drive A. (or B if
necessary)
2. Type A: (or B:)
3. Type INSTALL A C (or INSTALL B C)
Any hard drive letters can be used, for example INSTALL B D will
install the program from floppy drive B to hard drive D. The
installation will create a directory called BERT4 on your hard drive and
you will need to enter a CD\BERT4 to change to the Bert's Coloring
Programs directory before running the program. Once installed just type
BERT to start the program. If your computer gives a series of beeps when
you run Bert's Coloring Programs it is probably because it cannot find
the image files it needs to run, and other problems may be showing up as
well. All the files for Bert's Coloring Programs need to be in the same
directory for the program to operate successfully. You should not mix
the .DOT image files from Bert's Coloring Programs with those of
versions previous to 3.0 as they are in a different format.
