FirstClass® Client for Macintosh 2.6 is freely-distributable software used to connect to FirstClass servers by network or modem.
FirstClass Client makes use of several folders that should remain in the same folder as the FirstClass Client application itself:
Settings - the first place the client looks for FirstClass settings files when it starts
Modems - where modem configuration settings are saved as individual text files
FCP - where FirstClass scripts describing various connection methods are stored (do not edit the documents in this folder. They are for use by the client application only.)
Scripts - where the client looks for login scripts to connect to servers through SprintNet, etc.
Download - the folder FirstClass first suggests when downloading files from a server (note that this "folder" can be an alias to anywhere else in your system—even your desktop, if you're running System 7.)
INSTALLATION
Installing FirstClass Client 2.6 is easy. Drag the FirstClass® Client 2.6 folder, complete with all of its sub-folders, onto your hard drive.
OPERATION
Set up your connection method to the FirstClass server by pressing the setup button on the login window. Press the setup button beside the type of connection to set up details of that connection.
If you have a FirstClass settings file for given FirstClass server, most of your setup will be stored within that file. Simply double-click on the file after installing FirstClass Client 2.6. (If you have difficulty lauching the client this way, you need to rebuild your Macintosh desktop. Consult your Macintosh owner's manual.)
NEW IN 2.6
FirstClass Client 2.6 supports logins to FirstClass servers using the popular multiplatform TCP/IP networking protocol. Consult your FirstClass administrator for help logging in over TCP/IP.
