Thank you for using the Advanced Hex Editor from Kahei Co.!


WHAT IS IT?
--------------

A.X.E. is a Hex Editor for Windows 95/98/NT, offering powerful features and a smooth interface.
The current version of A.X.E. is 2.0.


WHAT SHALL I DO WITH THIS ZIP FILE?
-------------------------------------

The only file you need is AXE.EXE.  However, this archive contains the following other
files:

README.TXT	You're reading it.
XSTRUCT.INI	A structures library for AXE, containing a few example structures.
DOC/*.*		HTML documentation with images.

Installation is a simple matter of unzipping the archive (making sure to use the -d switch
in pkunzip, or the 'Use Folder Names' option in WinZip, so that the documentation is unzipped
to the correct directories.

Documentation is at the AXE website in two formats, because you might want either the HTML Help
file or else plain HTML, depending on whether you have Microsoft's HTML Help system on
your computer.  To download documentation, updates, etc, please visit

HTTP://WWW.KAHEI.COM

...the AXE website.


DO I HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING?
----------------------------

No.  A.X.E. is 'free shareware' -- you must register to get rid of the nag, but registration does
not cost anything (it just reassures me :)).
