===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
This package contains Win Multiple Configurations, by JRE Enterprises.
This document contains only a brief description of the package and its
features, along with instructions for its installation. After unzipping
Win Multiple Configurations, view INSTALL.WRI for additional
installation instructions.
Win Multiple Configurations (WMC) will allow you to save and use up to
one-hundred different desktops. This includes having different
SYSTEM.INI and WIN.INI configurations. Create desktops specific for
your children, husband, wife and/or co-worker(s). Also, password
protect any or all saved configuration entries -- a good way to protect
against accidental access to certain applications and/or critical data.
WMC requires VBRUN300.DLL and Windows 3.1. WMC now supports
installation on a server and being accessed by client workstations.
Win Multiple Configurations is a shareware program. This evaluation
version includes all features of the program, and is not crippled in any
way. You may use it for up to 30 days, without charge. If you like the
program, and wish to continue its use after this evaluation period, you
are required to pay for the program (see REGISTER.WRI for more details).
Any fee you may have paid to others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to
obtain this evaluation version was a fee for their copying and
distribution services, rather than a payment for continued use of the
program.
We thank you for giving Win Multiple Configurations a test drive.
Registration is easy and it ensures that we at JRE Enterprises can
continue to develop low cost, quality applications for Windows. When you
register, you will be sent a registration code that will stop the
annoying "Unregistered Shareware" messages. Registration can be done on
CompuServe (GO SWREG, title "Win Multiple Configurations", registration
id 662).
Also available from JRE Enterprises are programs JRE Exit, JRE Home
Inventory, My Life, Win Change, and Writer's Cramp. JRE Exit is a
freeware utility that provides four different ways to exit Windows.
JRE Home Inventory is the Windows Home Inventory program that keeps
track of all your household items for insurance purposes. My Life is
the definitive diary, word processor, scrapbook, and multi-media
scrapbook available for Windows. Win Change is the only utility that
allows you to make global changes to text strings in GRP, INI, PIF and
other types of files. Writer's Cramp is a simple, small, inexpensive
word processor. These programs can be found on CompuServe (WINSHARE
forum) and America Online (Windows software) with a keyword of JRE.

===== Installation =====================================
Install for Win Multiple Configurations
Copyright (c) 1993-1995 JRE Enterprises
All Rights Reserved
Win Multiple Configurations (WMC) requires Windows 3.1 and VBRUN300.DLL.
VBRUN300.DLL must be accessible via the path, normally it is found in
the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.
To install Win Multiple Configurations, run SETUP.EXE.
WMC now supports being installed on a server and accessed by many
clients. For server installations, use the OPTIONAL INSTALL method,
which places all executables (exe, com, bat, dll, vbx) in the
application directory. WMC also supports each client machine or each
user having their own WMC data directory, where saved configuration are
stored. This can be use in a standalone or client/server installation
and allows up to 100 saved configurations per WMC data directory.
There are now four different ways to use WMC; Classic, Enhanced-Classic,
Client/Server, Enhanced Client/Server.
Classic WMC:
Classic WMC is where WMC is installed on each workstation. The person
or group of people using the workstation can save up to 100 Windows
configurations. The 100 saved configurations are shared amongst the
people using the workstation.
WMC is installed using either the STANDARD or OPTIONAL installation
method on each workstation. Up to 100 configurations can be saved and
restored on each workstation. Saved configurations are stored in the WMC
installation directory. All users of the workstation share the 100
configurations. This is the standard way to use WMC and was the only
way to use WMC prior to Version 7.0.
Enhanced-Classic WMC:
Enhanced-Classic WMC is where WMC is installed on each workstation. The
person or group of people using the workstation can save up to 100
Windows configurations per WMC Data directory. Each person can specify
their own WMC Data directory and need not share it with other people.
WMC is installed using either the STANDARD or OPTIONAL installation
method on each workstation. The WMCDATAPATH environment variable must
be set before using WMC to a "WMC Data Directory", which is a directory
other than the WMC installation directory. Up to 100 configurations can
be saved and restored per WMC Data Directory. If each user of the
workstation sets the WMCDATAPATH environment variable to a different WMC
Data Directory, then each user can save and restore up to 100
configurations. In this case, the WMCUSER environment variable must
also be set before using WMC to a unique value for each user; otherwise,
WMC will not work properly. Normally, the WMCDATAPATH and WMCUSER
variables are set in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
Example:
AUTOEXEC.BAT:
set WMCDATAPATH=c:\wmcdata\joe ' where c: points to a local drive
set WMCUSER=joe
Client/Server WMC:
Client/server WMC only supports the situation where each person or group
use only one client workstation (Person A always uses workstation 1,
Persons C and D always uses workstation 2). Client/server WMC does not
support a person or group using multiple client workstations (Person A
uses workstation 1 and uses workstation 2). Enhanced Client/Server WMC
supports the use of multiple client workstations by an individual in
certain situations.
WMC is installed using the OPTIONAL installation method on a server.
Client workstations connect to the server to execute WMC. Run
CSSETUP.EXE, found in the WMC installation directory on the server, for
each client to set up the WMC Program Manager Group and icons on the
client(s). The WMCDATAPATH environment variable must be set before
using WMC to a "WMC Data Directory", which is a directory other than the
WMC installation directory. The directory can reside on the server or
the client workstation. The WMC DATA Directory must be a unique
directory for each client workstation if the directory(s) reside on a
server. Up to 100 configurations can be saved and restored per WMC Data
Directory. If each user of the workstation sets the WMCDATAPATH
environment variable to a different WMC Data Directory, then each user
can save and restore up to 100 configurations. In this case, the
WMCUSER environment variable must also be set before using WMC to a
unique value for each user; otherwise, WMC will not work properly.
Normally, the WMCDATAPATH and WMCUSER variables are set in the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
Example:
AUTOEXEC.BAT:
set WMCDATAPATH=c:\wmcdata\joe ' where c: points to a local drive
set WMCUSER=joe
Enhanced-Client/Server WMC:
Enhanced-Client/server WMC supports the same as Client/Server WMC, but
under certain situations it can also support a person or group using
multiple client workstations (Person A uses workstation 1 and uses
workstation 2). If a person uses multiple client workstations, then
Enhanced Client/Server WMC will work if each of the client workstations
are the same in hardware and software configuration. WMC saves and
restores the Windows SYSTEM.INI file, which contains hardware and
software specifics for a workstation. If the SYSTEM.INI values do not
match the workstation hardware and software specifics, then Windows may
not start!
WMC is installed using the OPTIONAL installation method on a server.
Client workstations connect to the server to execute WMC. Run
CSSETUP.EXE, found in the WMC installation directory on the server, for
each client to set up the WMC Program Manager Group and icons on the
client(s). The WMCDATAPATH environment variable must be set before
using WMC to a "WMC Data Directory", which is a directory other than the
WMC installation directory. The directory must reside on a server. The
WMC DATA Directory must be a unique directory for each client
workstation. Up to 100 configurations can be saved and restored per WMC
Data Directory. The WMCUSER environment variable must also be set
before using WMC to a unique value for each user; otherwise, WMC will
not work properly. If each user of the workstation sets the WMCDATAPATH
environment variable to a different WMC Data Directory, then each user
can save and restore up to 100 configurations. Normally, the
WMCDATAPATH and WMCUSER variables are set in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
Example:
AUTOEXEC.BAT:
set WMCDATAPATH=h:\wmcdata\joe ' where h: points to a server drive
set WMCUSER=joe
Manual Installation:
If you are using a windows shell program other than Program Manager or
Norton Desktop, you will have to manually create groups and group items
for WMC. We recommend creating a group WMC. In group WMC, create
seven items:
1. Description = Save Desktop
Command Line = path\WMCSAVE.EXE
Working Directory = path
2. Description = Restore Desktop
Command Line = path\WMCSTRT.EXE /d/n
Working Directory = path
3. Description = Quick Restore
Command Line = path\WMCQSTR.EXE /?/? -- See WMC.WRI
Working Directory = path
4. Description = Quick Save
Command Line = path\WMCQSAV.EXE
Working Directory = path
5. Description = Copy Groups
Command Line = path\WMCCOPY.EXE
Working Directory = path
6. Description = Refresh Desktop
Command Line = path\WMCSTRT.EXE /R
Working Directory = path
7. Description = WMC Help
Command Line = path\JREWMC.HLP
Working Directory = path
In the startup/autostart group, we recommend placing the following item:
1. Description = Restore Desktop
Command Line = path\WMCSTRT.EXE
Working Directory = path
NOTE: path represents the disk and directory where WMC was installed.
NOTE 2: Existing WMC users MUST run SETUP.EXE to properly convert their
pre-Version 2 configuration files to the new configuration file format!
KNOWN PROBLEMS:
GP fault occurs when run on a 286 machine. Problem is due to a bug in
VBRUN300.DLL. You must use VBRUN300.DLL dated 5/12/93 or later to fix
this problem.
