- and the CyReL M16-1280 (Cybercube Canada).

- The authors make NO WARRANTY or representation, either express or implied,
- with respect to this software, its quality, accuracy, merchantability, or

-
- Run 'GVW_INS2.APP' to install GEM-View >=3.00 and type in your registration-
- number, your name and your code/key. Take care to type your name precisely,
- observing capital/non-capital letters, spaces and special characters.
- The program will then be automatically registered in your name.
-
- During this process you may, if you wish, instal the programs in
- a directory other than the source directory. To do this, click on the empty
- box below the word "Pfad:" and choose the destination directory from the
- resulting selection box.
-
- The contents of the archives (GVW_V???.PAX, GVW_DOC?.PAX, GVW_TOL?.PAX and
- GVW_PIC?.PAX) can be seen below together with details of the subdirectories
- which will be created.
-
- Some special notes:
- o A once-and-for-all depacking and installation process, which is not
- dependent on your computer type, is all that is required.
- After installation you can use all the files normally.
- o You can start the installation from Floppy Disk, RAM-Disk or Hard-Disk.
- It is, however, essential that the archives ( the .PAX files ) are in
- the same directory as 'GVW_INST.APP'.
- o Before an existing file is overwritten, you will be asked for confirmation
- to proceed.
- o Using 'GVW_INST.APP' doesn't modify the archives so you can copy this
- disk after installation and send it to a friend! ;-)
-
-
- If you registered an earlier version of GEM-View, and do not know your
- code/key, you can obtain it as follows:-
-
- o Send me a letter with two CRI (international reply coupons), which
- you can get at your post-office, saying that you want to know
- your code/key. In this case your full name will be enough but please
- write clearly and legibly!
-
-
- Use the registration-number '000000' in the installation process to get
- an unregistered version of GEMVIEW.
- This version can then be tested for the next 30 days!

-
- - [3.01]: Minor changes
-
-
- - [3.00]: (22nd October 1993 [Happy Birthday!])
- New release of GEM-View! Praise, criticism (preferably constructive),
- suggestions for improvement to my address. The future holds the
- development on an interesting series of ideas, which I hope will meet
- with general approval. I hope also that the "Trararis" will stand with
- us. Questions about the modular programming by telephone. (Only Satur-
- days 14-16 o'clock, i do not speak english well!) And i hope to get hold
- of produced modules so that they can be added immediatly to GEM-View!
- (Better bit by bit ;-)
-
- !!! ATTENTION: Choose the right folder for your modules using
- "Install path... ^Z" and save the configuration!
- !!! ATTENTION: The structures for the modul-interface are changed!
-
- It is advisable to use the program WinX2.1 with the Falcon, because
- there's an unpleasant flaw in TOS which has affect that the operating
- system hangs when one has more than 15 windows open. This certainly
- happens with TOS 4.04. It doesn't seem to me to be sensible to limit
- GEM-View, so please be on your guard against this or instal WinX2.2.
- The operating system flaw is going to be eliminated in the new TOS
- release an no longer occurs under MultiTOS.
