- HOW TO INSTALL
- --------------
-
- To install, copy ANIMOUSE.* to your windows directory and run it with the
- Program Manager's "Run..." command. It should now be displayed as an icon.
- Double click the icon to get the settings window for Animouse, which allows
- you to change the cursors. To make Animouse change the cursors every time
- you run Windows, choose "Install..." at the top of the Animouse window.
-
- All of the video drivers supplied with Windows work fine, but some custom
- video drivers that come with video cards cannot change the cursor without
- making it disappear momentarily while it changes. When Animouse animates
- the cursor through one of these drivers, it blinks between each frame. You
- can use the speed control to slow down the animation to a tolerable speed,
- or stop it alltogether. Most of the cursors are pretty good even without
- the animation.
-
-
