Installation instructions for Pioneer

    Make sure that you have at least 12MB free harddisk space.

    Download Pioneer
    
    Create a temporary directory to store fountain installation files.

    From a DOS prompt, go to the temporary directory and run CP09B8.EXE
    (If you downloaded the multi-part version, run all three parts.)

    Go into Windows and run the SETUP.EXE file that CP09B8.EXE created
    in the temporary directory.

    After installation, you may remove the temporary directory.

Example:
  
  (From DOS)
    C:\> MD tempdir
    C:\> cd tempdir
    C:\TEMPDIR> \download\cp09b8.exe

  (From Windows)
    In the Program Manager's "File" menu, choose "Run...".
    In the Command Line box, type "C:\tempdir\setup.exe"
    Click on "OK" and the installation should start!

If you are running Windows 3.1 you will need ole32s.zip to get rid
of a non-critical error message at Pioneer startup.
 
    Download ole32s.zip and extract with "pkunzip -d ole32s.zip" into
    a temporary directory.  Run the setup.exe program located in the
    DISK1 subdirectory.
