ROUTE1 for Microsoft Windows 3.x release 2.1
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
This is a short text file just to get you started. There is a Help
file included with Route1 that explains all of its features, and how to use
them. I strongly recommend looking at the help file, so that you can take
full advantage of Route1. It explains how to access submenus, how to create
scripts, and much more. It replaces the text file that came with earlier
versions of Route1, because the text file was getting too long. This help
file is accessible through Route1 by pressing [?] on any menu or dialog box.

To Install Route1:
Select 'Run...' from Program Manager's 'File' menu, and type:
d:install
where d: is the disk drive where the Route1 installation disk is.
>If you are a previous user of Route1:
version 1.x - your Route1.INI is NOT compaiable with version 2.1
version 2.0 - your Route1.INI IS compatatible with version 2.1
>If you are using Windows 3.1:
Install copies VBRUN100.DLL to your Route1 directory. This file
is only needed for use with Windows 3.0, so you may delete it.
>To install Route1 yourself:
Copy all 70 Route1 files to their own directory. It takes a
little over 660k on your hard disk.
>To setup Route1:
Add Route1 to a Program Manager or Quick Access group as you normally
would, or have Route1 appear when Windows is loaded by adding it to
the lines in WIN.INI starting with 'Load=' or 'Run='.
>To learn about Route1:
1. Select "Run..." from Program Manager's "File" menu, and type:

Legal stuff, artistic and scientific excuses, and other ramblings:
First of all, of any harm should come to your system or files while
Route 1 is installed, I take no responsibility. Don't panic - Route 1 is
safe . . . as long as you use protection . . .
Although some of the included icons are derivatives or enhancements
of commercial program icons, it is not my intention to distribute any material
that its creator(s) or legal owner(s) would object to. I will immediately
remove, or alter to their satisfaction, any icon(s) which is brought to my
attention as proprietary in nature and should not be freely distributed. The
design, look, and feel of all the different parts of my program is either
purely of my own invention, or a thorough alteration and combining of what I
wished many other programs should be. It is also not my intention, to mimic,
or to lessen the effectiveness of any other software in existence. I wrote
this program originally for my own use, and am distributing it for other
people to use strictly for my own satisfaction of making something that
someone else finds useful, or even necessary.
If you use Route1 for anything more than to take up disk space, you
are morally obligated to pay for it; just $14.00 gets you FREE technical
support with Route1, FREE updates, and a clear conscience. (see address below)
If you are registered, and you find a bug, and I am able to fix it,
I will do so as quickly as possible, and will send you the fixed version in
the mail - no charge.
