- a product designed specifically for creating chess
- diagrams on the fly under Windows 95.
-
-
- DOCUMENTATION
- -----------------------
- Chess Captor comes with its own help file. It is not
- very difficult to work with Chess Captor. You can run
- the help file independently from Chess Captor if you
- want to by double clicking the file "Captor.hlp"
- in Windows Explorer.
-
- You can access online help through the Contents window
- where the information is organized into books and
- chapters, or go directly to the Index window to look
- for specific references and keywords to help you locate
- the information that you are looking for.
-
- For aditional information and possible updates on Chess
- Captor I advice you to visit the Chess Captor Home Page
- on the Internet at:

-
- INSTALLING CHESS CAPTOR
- --------------------------------------
- Chess Captor is very easy to install. Chess Captor comes
- in two versions:
- - CCAP120S.ZIP and
- - CCAP120B.ZIP
-
- IF YOU ARE NEW TO CHESS CAPTOR
- In this case you should download (have downloaded)
- CCAP120S.ZIP because file this contains the setup
- program that will install the ocx and dlls needed.
-
- Once you have downloaded CCAP120S.ZIP, unzip the
- files contained in CCAP120S.ZIP into a temporary
- directory. Double click the file setup.exe in
- Windows Explorer or select start on the taskbar
- and click on "Run...". In the dialog box that
- appears typ the path to the setup.exe file.
-
- Setup will now prompt you to select a directory where
- you would like to install Chess Captor. The default
- destination is to \program files\ChessCaptor. Setup
- will create a shortcut for Chess Captor on your task
- bar.
-
- Once you have succesfully installed Chess Captor it is
- safe to delete all the files you unzipped into the
- temporary directory.
-
- IF YOU ALREADY HAVE VERSION 1.10
- You can upgrade to version 1.20 by unzipping all files
- contained in CCAP120B.ZIP into the directory where Chess
- Captor 1.10 resides. Select yes when asked to
- replace/overwrite existing files.
-
- IF YOU ALREADY HAVE VERSION 1.0x
- If you have any of the versions 1.00, 1.01 or 1.02 on
- your computer it is advisable to uninstall that version
- first. You can these versions as follows:
-
- Click Start on the taskbar on select Control Panel. In
- the Control panel window double click the icon named
- "Add-Remove Programs". Another windows will appear
- containing a list with names of programs. If you see
- Chess Captor listed then double click on Chess Captor.
- That's it.
-
- If you do not see "Chess Captor" written in the list
- but do have Chess Captor on your system you can just
- delete the old Chess Captor files. They are:
- * camra2.wav
- * Chess Captor.rio
- * Chess Captor.hlp
- * Chess Captor.cnt
- * Chess Captor.gid
- * Chess Captor.exe
- * Chess Captor.ini
- * hit.wav
- * license.txt
- * readme.txt
- * register.rtf
- * sfit2.wav
- * wow.wav
-
- Plus the following files if they exist:
- * Chess Captor.ftg
- * Chess Captor.fts
-
- Now please follow the steps described in "IF YOU ARE
- NEW TO CHESS CAPTOR".
-
-
- REGISTRATION
- -------------------
- Chess Captor is not free software. It is released as
- shareware, which provides the opportunity for the
- program to be evaluated before it is purchased.
-
- I hope that when you try Chess Captor you will like it
- so much that you will want to register it.
-
- Complete information on how to register Chess Captor is
- included in the REGISTER.RTF file. You can view and
- print the file from most text editors such as Wordpad or
- MS Word.
-
-
- TROUBLESHOOTING
- --------------------------
- If you are having troubles starting Chess Captor and get
- messages stating that windows cannot find certain dlls
- then please read the following.
-
- Chess Captor (Setup version) 'ships' without the
- following dlls although it needs them all:
- - msvcrt20.dll
- - msvcrt40.dll
- - mfc40.dll
- - vb40032.dll
-
- These dlls were excluded because in most cases they
- are already on your hard disk and because their file size
- is quite large. If you need any of these dlls you can get
- them on the Chess Captor's Home Page at:
