-
-
- ______________
- INSTALLATION
-
- Run the friendly installation program (install.exe) supplied
- with the package. You can install from floppy or hard disk.
- The only constraint is that all the PMdiff files must be in
- the same directory.
-
-
- ______________
- GENERAL NOTES
-
- PMdiff makes extensive use of drag and drop. Use it to load
- files or change colours and fonts. Experiment with the second
- mouse button. It activates a pop-up menu containing many useful
- features.
-
- The on-line help is comprehensive, although not all items are
- available from General Help. Check out the Help Index to make
- sure that you don't miss anything.
-
- Two pairs of sample files are provided:
-
- hippo1.txt, hippo2.txt
- and mary1.txt, mary2.txt
-
- You may wish to try comparing these.

- EVALUATION VERSION
-
- PMdiff is the result of many months of dedicated development
- effort. PMdiff exists in evaluation and licensed version.
-
- The two version are identical, except that the evaluation
- version does not allow preferences to be saved. You may
- distribute the evaluation version freely, and use it for up to
- 21 days. If you find it useful then you are asked to register
- it. This won't cost you much, and will gain you
-
- * a disk containing the latest licensed version
- allowing preferences to be saved
-
- * free support via snail-mail and e-mail
-
- * the satisfaction of supporting good OS/2 software
-
- * a clean conscience
-
- See 'How to register and receive support' in the on-line help
- for details about registration. You may like to use the text
- file order.frm to help you place your order.

- _________________
- LICENSED VERSION
-
- The licensed version of PMdiff allows you to save your
- preferences between sessions. This is intended as an incentive
- to register.
-
- You may install the licensed version on several machines.
- However, you must ensure that only the number of copies
- purchased are in use at any given time.
-
- For example, perhaps you have bought only one copy. You can
- install it on your desktop office machine, and your laptop. Even
- your home machine. But PMdiff must be run on only one of the
- machines at any given time.
