- 1. Files in Archive:
- --------------------
-
- The EXPAND52.ZIP, .LZH, .ARJ or whatever extension has won the
- compression war, archive should contain the following files:
-
- EXPAND.LIB The Expand library, for Clipper 5.01, version 2.00
- Just link in with your Clipper 5.01 applications.
-
- EXPAND.NG The Norton Guide to Expand. Use NG.EXE or PRINTDOC.EXE to
- read the information contained herein.
-
- EXPAND.KEY A file containing the keywords of the library, could also
- be used with Snap!, when a Clipper 5 version of it becomes
- available.
-
- EXPDEMO.PRG A program demonstrating most of Expand's features,
- See "Quick Compile" for Compiler instructions.
-
- PRINTDOC.EXE A program to generate the documentation in ASCII
- Form, ready to be printed (more later).
-
- EXPAND.ANS A little ANSI file, just type it to the console with
- ANSI.SYS installed. funny.
-
- READ.ME This file.
-
-
- 2. Expand documentation:
- ------------------------
-
- The Expand archive does not contain ready to be printed documentation,
- but don't panic!..
-
- For those of you using Norton Guides, a guide is supplied for convenience.
- Normal, ready to be printed, documentation has been left out on purpose, to
- save space. A program is supplied instead. PRINTDOC.EXE will read EXPAND.NG
- and generate EXPAND.DOC, which in turn can be printed. PRINTDOC assumes
- 66 lines/page, if you want 72 lines/page, execute "PRINTDOC 7" instead. Once
- the documentation generated, you can safely delete PRINTDOC.EXE.
-
-
- 3. Getting the Latest version of Expand:
- ----------------------------------------
-
- The latest version of the Expand library can always be F'requested at the
- Clipper Developers Group Netherlands (of which I am a member) Bulletin Board.
- The CDGN BBS (Also known as Hekom BBS) has FidoNode 2:500:223. Use magic
- name EXPAND for latest version of Expand for Clipper 5.01 and Magic name
- EXPAND87 for latest version of Expand for Clipper '87.
-
-
- 4. Licence Agreement:
- ---------------------
-
- Read the "Licence" Part of the documentation for full details on the
- license. The Expand library for Clipper 5.0 is now distributed as a form
- of Shareware. When used for personnal use only, no license is required,
- otherwise, a registration is required. You can register in three different
- ways, depending on the fact if you want (parts of) sources. Please read
- the section "Registration" when you consider registering. Note that you
- now already have a fully functionnal version of the Library, no items
- have been left out (as is required by the term 'share-ware').
-
-
- 5. "Quick" Compile:
- -------------------
-
- If you want a Quick demonstration of the main features of the Expand library,
- Compile and Link EXPDEMO.PRG as follows:
- >Clipper EXPDEMO
- >RTlink FI EXPDEMO LI EXPAND [/pll:base50] [verbose]
- The items in brackets are optionnal.
-
- Then, Run the Demo:
- >EXPDEMO
- Note that you need Clipper 5.01.
- Expdemo does not Show all the features, but quite a lot of them are well
- illustrated.
- Run:
- >EXPDEMO /bw
- When you are running on a Color system with Monochrome screen, or when
- using a LapTop.
-
-
- 6. Additionnal files:
- ---------------------
-
- The Expand library sports some functions whose' usage is not demonstrated in
- the Demo programs supplied in the archive. Those are mainly the EGA/VGA
- specific routines. Look out for the CLPFONTS archive, it contains a set of
- EGA/VGA fonts and some extra demo programs for Expand. Those files were
- not included in the normal archive, as that would increase it's size too
- much. The additionnal files are included in the disk when registering,
- of course.
