- Welcome to ParBENCH V3.2!
-
-
- Please note:

- * ParBENCH is now SHAREWARE *

-
- I feel that ParBENCH has finally matured enough to consider asking frequent
- users to send in a $20.00 fee. The way I figure it, where else can you get a
- collection of more useful programs that offers direct support from the author
- for so little! :) Since I am also currently self-employed (read BROKE 3 days
- out of 5!) I could really use the cash to offset the time I spend on this thing.
-
- This version incorporates quite a few new features, with one of the most
- significant being that all the documentation is in AmigaGuide® format. If you
- do not have AmigaGuide®, you need to install it first from the ParBENCH Setup
- Icon. To do so, double click the ParBENCH Setup icon, choose INSTALL then
- choose AmigaGuide®. If you already have the AmigaGuide libraries on your system
- go into the ParBENCH Utilities drawer and double-click on the ParBENCH.Guide
- icon. As the DOCs are in a hyper-text format, it is quick and painless to find
- the information you are looking for. If you are adventurous however, or just a
- seasoned ParBENCH User, you will most likely be able to get by without even a
- glance at the docs. BUT since I spent the better part of 3 weeks typing those
- @!$@%& DOCs in I hope you read them eventually!! :)
-
- In the utilities drawer is a script called Remove.Old.ParNET. If you have
- installed a previous version of ParBENCH or ParnET, I suggest you run this
- script before you run the new install. This is not absolutely required, but
- it will get rid of some uneeded files and make a bit more room for you.
-
- The Install script has been replaced with a SETUP script, as it now has the
- option to allow the removal of ParBENCH and all its associated files from
- your computer. The Setup script was completely reworked using New Horizon's
- fantastic FLOW thought pocessor. New features are detailed in the documentation
- and I encourage you to install it and browse through it. It has a greatly
- enhanced troubleshooting section as well as a source for ParNET adapters.
- I hope you like the new version! :)

- Well it had to happen eventually, the following legal mumbo jumbo included here
- was made necessary by some BOZO's fooling around with the ParBENCH contents.

- that don't belong or removing files needed for the disk to work! SOOooo..
- thanks to those BOZO's, here is the new copyright information for this
