MOZART Information
------------------
VERSIONS OF MOZART INCLUDED
Within the installation package there are two versions of
MOZART: version 1, the original program for Windows 3.1
and version 2 for Windows 95 and Windows NT.
If you are running Windows 95 or Windows NT, then version 2
will install automatically. There is no reason to install
version 1, as it will do nothing which version 2 cannot.
If you are running Windows 3.1 or 3.11, then version 1 will
install automatically. You can run the installation again
if you upgrade to Windows 95 to take advantage of the extra
features of version 2.
UPWARD COMPATIBILITY
Music files created by MOZART are upwardly compatible. That
is to say that MOZART 2 will read the files created by
MOZART 1 but not vice versa.

MOZART Installation Instructions
--------------------------------
1. DISTRIBUTION FILES
There are two forms in which you may have got this version of
MOZART:
A) You got the evaluation version in the form a zip file,
with a name like MOZART20.ZIP, from a bulletin board, via
the internet, from CompuServe, or on a CD-ROM.
(The zip file names may vary: the two digits in the name
reflect the version.)
B) You have a disk or disks containing one or more files,
including the installation program SETUP.EXE and a file
READ1ST.TXT
2. UNZIPPING
If you found MOZART in form (A), and have not yet unzipped the
file, then you have to do this first. Unzip the ZIP file into a
temporary directory. This is done using the utility PKUNZIP.EXE
(or equivalent) which you should find on internet, CompuServe, or
wherever you found the MOZART ZIP file.
3. INSTALLATION FILES
Having unzipped the file, or having found MOZART in form (B)
above, you will see a file setup.exe which installs MOZART.
The file readme.1st contains useful information for installing.
(It is one of the files containing this information and you may
be reading it now!)
IMPORTANT NOTE: If these installation files are put on your hard
disk, they must be put in a (temporary) directory which must NOT
be the directory you are about to install MOZART into.
4. INSTALLING MOZART
Installation is done by running the program setup.exe supplied
in the set of MOZART installation files.
If your installation files (including setup.exe) are on a floppy
disk in drive a:
If you have the Windows 95 interface, use the usual software
installation procedure in the Control panel, or use "Run" on
the Start Menu to run setup.exe.
If you have the old style windows interface (eg with Windows
3.1 or NT 3.51), and are installing from drive a, then:
Go to Windows Program Manager.
Click on the "Run..." item on its "File" menu.
In the command box type
a:\setup
Click on Ok or press Enter.
Otherwise if you have put the MOZART installation files into
a temporary directory, c:\tmp say, then do the same but with
the command c:\tmp\setup.
The setup program now installs MOZART for you.
It asks a few questions including: where do you want MOZART
installed? It suggests a directory. You may install it
anywhere on your hard disk but it is best to be in a new
directory. The setup program creates the directory for
you if it doesn't exist.
MOZART setup installs a number of utility DLL files which
are commonly used by many programs. Depending on your
system configuration, it puts these in your Common Program
Files, Windows, or Windows System directory. If you already
have a newer version of any of these files than the one
supplied with MOZART, the installation will pause to ask you
if you really want to install an older version. The correct
answer is usually "No". (If you do want to install older
versions, then exit from the setup program and back up your
originals first - MOZART should work with newer versions;
other applications may not work with older ones.)
The common DLLs installed by MOZART setup are listed under
the heading "Files installed" in the file README.TXT.
MOZART SETUP also installs a number of sample tunes in a
separate directory. These files have the extension .mz
and the installation registers these as belonging to MOZART
so that you can open them by clicking on them in the Windows
95 Explorer or the Windows NT Program Manager.
A number of icons will appear in a collection on the Windows 95
Start Menu or a Program Manager Group entitled "Mozart" or
"Mozart32". These include MOZART itself, an icon for direct
access to the on-line help, and companion information file
README.TXT.
In the Evaluation Copy icons are installed to give you direct
access to the order forms, which are in Windows WRITE format
and readable also by WORDPAD and WORD.

MOZART: FURTHER INFORMATION
---------------------------
README.TXT: Other important information including how to
register and uninstall MOZART is given in the file README.TXT
which is installed with your MOZART files. This can be read
after installation if you wish. README.TXT also has useful
trouble-shooting information in case MOZART does not run
satisfactorily first time after installation.
