ABC-WARE Software for Kids!
MatheMax v1.0
Copyright 1998-99 J. Behling
************************************************************************
Dear parents,
Children are attracted by computers as if by magic. Being strange and
suspicious to many adults, to children this modern aid is as natural as
the telephone and the TV. Just the fact that mum and dad use it excites
the curiosity of the child.
Often the computer unjustly is condemned as being a cause for isolation,
a lack of creativity, an increasing propensity for violence, etc. This
is not necessarily so. If the computer is used the right way, i. e. with
the appropriate software and under control of the parents, it can help
to encourage creativity and communicational skills.
ABC-WARE is software for children *). Under this name programs are
developed which do not contain violence and have no racist and other
contents which are liable to corrupt the young. Here you will not find
any shoot-'em-up games.
ABC-WARE stimulates the creativity and the intellectual and logical
capacities, supports the imagination of your child and in an enjoyable
and playful way practises simple tasks as reading,
arithmetic, etc., either by itself or together with children of the
same age or with the whole family.
Make sure that your child spends its time at the computer in a useful
way. Pay attention to ABC-WARE when buying software. This ensures that
you always choose the right software.
*) There are supposedly even adults who enjoy ABC-WARE!

Installation
***********************************************************************
Start the installation by typing
abcsetup
The installation program will ask you in which directory MatheMax shall

directory of your choice. If the directory does not exist already, it
will be created by the installation program.
After the installation your target directory has to contain the following
files:
Target directory:
readme.txt introduction
MatheMax.exe main program
MatheMax.hlp help file
order.doc order form
Windows System directory:
msvbvm60.dll Visual Basic runtime module (distributed
separately with online versions)
Attention: This file may also be used by other programs! If you
want to uninstall MatheMax for any reason, make sure that no other
programs use this runtime module, before you delete it!
A program group will be created and the icons for Snowman will be added
automatically.
