- REGISTRATION REMINDERS
-
- Unlicensed copies of Wilson WindowWare products are 100% fully functional.
- We make them this way so that you can have a real look at them, and then
- decide whether they fit your needs or not. Our entire business depends
- on your honesty. If you use it, we expect you to pay for it. We feel
- that if we treat you right, you will treat us right.
-
- Unlicensed copies of our products do have a pesky registration reminder
- screen that pops up whenever you start the program. This shouldn't
- really affect your evaluation of our software.
-
- We're sure that once you see the incredible quality of our software,
- you will dig out your credit card, pick up the phone, call the nice
- people at our 800 number and register the software.
-
- When you pay for the shareware you like, you are voting with your
- pocketbook, and will encourage us to bring you more of the same kinds
- of products. Pay for what you like, and voila, more of what you like
- will almost magically be developed.
-
-
- LEGAL MATTERS
-
- Of course the usual disclaimers still apply. We are not
- responsible for anything at all. Nothing. Even if we are held
- responsible, the limit of our liability is the licensing fees
- you paid. The full text of our license agreement is found near
- the bottom of this file.

- HOW TO INSTALL THIS SOFTWARE
-
- Use our snazzy setup program...
-
- 1) Close down all extraneous Windows applications.
- (You do have to be in Windows to run WSETUP.EXE)
-
- 2) Double-Click on the WSETUP.EXE program. (If you have the
- WinCheck product in front of you, the setup program is still
- called SETUP.EXE)
-
- 3) When the setup program asks for a directory, specify initial
- directory, or accept the given default.
-
- 4) When the screen comes up that asks you what you want to
- install, do your selections, or just hit the INSTALL ALL
- button. Hit the OK button to continue.
-
-
- ******************** MANUAL INSTALL *********************
-
- If you cannot use the snazzy setup program, and must do a manual
- install.....good luck. Basically installing our products without
- going through the setup program is "unsupported", as installation
- of Windows products does get tricky. However as to not leave you
- completely in the lurch....
-
- 1) Most files to be installed by the installation program end in
- an underscore "_". The files might be compressed.
-
- If you received the files on a DISK, the probability is HIGH
- that you must expand the files with our WEXPAND (see below)
- program before use.
-
- If you received the files packaged in a ZIP file, the
- probability is LOW. and you may simply rename the files to the
- correct name.
-
- If you try to expand a file that was not compressed, the expand
- program will NOT give an error message, and will NOT correctly
- process the file. In general, if the output from the expand
- program is smaller than the file that went in, the expand program
- should not be used.
-
- By examining the files with our Browser (possibly included with
- the package) program, or basically any tool that allows you to
- look at the file in hex, one can quickly learn how to determine
- if the file is compressed or not. If you can read *any* text
- in the morass of funny looking symbols, the file is probably not
- compressed. If the characters seem completely random, the it
- probably is compressed.
-
- 2) The files (generally) must either be expanded into files with the
- correct names, or must be renamed, prior to use.
-
- 3) In general, the DLL files should go into your WINDOWS directory,
- or else some directory mentioned in your DOS path statement.
-
- 4) The BROWSER.EXE program may be used to view the *.MAN manual
- files. It is recommended that you put the BROWSER program in
- the same directory you put the DLL files.
-
- 5) You may want to add to the WIN.INI [Extensions] section the
- following lines:
-
- MAN=BROWSER.EXE ^.MAN
- HLP=WINHELP ^.HLP
- WBT=WINBATCH.EXE ^.WBT
-
-
- *** USING THE WEXPAND PROGRAM ***
-
- Example:
-
- The installation diskette is inserted into your A: floppy drive
-
- You wish to expand the WININFO.EX_ file. At the DOS prompt type...
-
- WEXPAND.EXE WININFO.EX_ WININFO.EXE
-
- Make sure the output file (WININFO.EXE in this case) is LARGER than
- the imput file (WININFO.EX_), otherwise the file was not compressed,
- and should be renamed as follows:
-
- REN WININFO.EX_ WININFO.EXE
-
-
-
- UPDATE POLICY
-
- It is the policy of Wilson WindowWare to protect faithful customers, and to
- derive the majority of our income via sales to new customers rather than
- continually attempting to extract more funds from existing customers. Of
- course we must at least cover our costs or we could not stay in business
- bringing you new and updated software.
-
- Wilson WindowWare frequently updates it products. There are various kinds
- of updates, including Major updates, Minor updates, and bug-fix updates.
-
- Minor and bug-fix updates for our shareware products are free -- subject
- only to our reasonable shipping and and handling charges for disks. As we
- are not in the disk selling business, you may find that shareware vendors
- specializing is disk sales can easily sell disks cheaper than we can. On
- the other hand, we *always* have the most recent versions of our software.
- Our shipping and handling charges for update disks are as follows:
-
- 10.00 US and Canada for the first product,
- 5.00 US and Canada for each additional product.
- 9.50 Surcharge for shipping outside of US and Canada.
-
- If you obtain a minor or bug-fix update from Compuserve or other online
- service, a BBS, a shareware disk vendor or from another source, there is
- no charge from us (of course you will have to pay the on-line service fees,
- disk vendors fees, or at least pay your phone bill for downloading from
- a BBS). In addition, you may use a single disk to update any number of
- copies of a product.
-
- The policy and pricing for Major shareware updates vary. Depending on the
- nature of the upgrade, length of time since the previous major upgrade,
- desirability of new features added, the extent of revisions to the printed
- manuals (if any), work involved and possible price changes for new users,
- we may or may not charge fees. Since it is difficult to determine what the
- cost of future major updates will be, and since we do not wish to commit
- ourselves to the uncertainty of the future, we have provided information on
- the cost of major past updates here so that you can see our track record,
- and possibly feel reassured about the future.
