- =============================================================================
- System Requirements:
-
- Versaverter is a small application, it should run under most 32Bit Windows
- platforms without issue. Versaverter has been tested under the following
- operating systems:
-
- Windows 95, 98, ME, NT 4, 2000, and XP
-
- Versaverter requires approximately 1.5Mb of HD space (including unit data)
-
- =============================================================================
- Why No Installer?
-
- I have fought with installshield and various other installers for many years
- and have decided that the bloated filesize of the installers - translating
- to additional net bandwidth and slower downloads, coupled with
- incompatibility under various operating systems, and new corporate security
- filters that block installers all make installers more of a hindrance than a
- help.
-
- I therefore provide Versaverter as a archive to be installed manually.
-
- =============================================================================
- Instructions
-
- 1. Download the Versaverter archive
-
- 2. UnZip the archive to wherever you would like to keep the application and
- its data.
- NOTES:
- 1. To extract the archive: Download and install WinZip if you don't
- already have it from http://www.winzip.com/
- 2. When extracting the archive ensure paths are turned ON
-
- 3. Run the versaverter.exe application
-
- =============================================================================
- NOTES:
-
- You may choose to create a shortcut to the Versaverter application. If you
- do, ensure that you specify the working directory in the shortcut as the
- directory where you placed Versaverter.
-
- The first time Versaverter is started and any time you download updated unit
- data, Versaverter will translate the unit data from XML (a data interchange
- format) into it's own internal binary format - this process might take a few
- minutes on slow machines but will dramatically speed up the application for
- all subsequent activations.
