- Microprose Installation Utility
-
- The Microprose Installation Utility will install the game files
- onto your hard drive. Dialog windows will appear to prompt you for
- information during the installation process. Use the keyboard and
- mouse to enter this information.
-
- Each dialog window may have a number of options in it. The options
- will appear in the form of PUSH buttons, RADIO buttons, CHECK boxes,
- and TEXT boxes. PUSH buttons, when pressed (clicked on), cause the
- action associated with that button to be performed immediately. RADIO
- buttons are similar to old car radio buttons; they let you select one
- of several possible options. Similarly, CHECK boxes are presented when
- you can select more than one of the possible options. TEXT boxes appear
- when it is necessary for you to type in some unique answer.
-
- You can use the mouse to enter information by moving the arrow
- pointer over the appropriate button and clicking the left mouse button.
- This will activate the button that is underneath the arrow pointer.
-
- The keyboard will also work to operate buttons that appear in a
- dialog window. The [Tab] key causes the "focus box"--a thin black
- outline box--to move between the different button types (fields).
- The Arrow keys move the focus box between buttons within a particular
- field. The [Enter] key activates the PUSH button which has the
- focus box. The [Escape] key ([Esc]) always functions as a "cancel"
- or "abort" button.
-
- Use the alphanumeric keys (A-Z, 1-0, and punctuation) to enter text
- in any TEXT boxes that appear. First, move the focus box to the TEXT
- box as you would for any other box or button. Next, enter the relevant
- text using the alphanumeric keys.
