-
- 1. SHAREWARE
-
- The Shareware method of software distribution gives
- users a chance to try software before buying it. If you try
- a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected
- to register with the author or copyright holder. Individual
- Shareware products differ on details -- some request
- registration while others require it, and some specify a
- maximum trial period. With registration, depending on the
- product you register, you will get anything from the simple
- right to continue using the software to an updated program
- with a printed manual.
-
- The author of a Shareware program specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
- the software, either to all and sundry computer users or to
- a specific group. For example, most Shareware authors
- require written permission before a commercial disk vendor
- may copy and distribute their Shareware program.
-
- So, Shareware is a software "distribution method", not
- a "type" or "kind" of software. As a computer user, you
- should try to find software that suits your needs as well as
- your pocketbook, whether it's commercial or Shareware. The
- Shareware system accommodates your needs, because you can
- "try before you buy". And because the overhead is low,
- prices - in the form of registration fees are low also.
- Shareware has the ULTIMATE money-back guarantee -- "if you
- don't use the product, you don't pay for it".

- 8. INSTALLING DENTUREMAN ONTO A HARD-DRIVE
-
- You can optionally install DENTUREMAN on a hard disk.
- If you choose to do this, DENTUREMAN and its associated
- files should be installed in its own directory or sub-
- directory. Follow these easy step-by-step instructions for
- installing DENTUREMAN on your hard disk:
-
-
- At the DOS prompt, make sure you are in the 'root'
- directory by typing in the DOS command to change to the
- 'root' directory:
-
- c:> cd \ <cr>
-
- Now type in the DOS command to make a sub-directory.
-
- c:> mkdir DMAN <cr>
-
- Change to the ' DMAN ' directory by typing the 'change
- directory' command at the DOS prompt:
-
- c:> cd DMAN <cr>
-
- Insert the DENTUREMAN master disk into floppy drive A (or
- B) and type the following at the DOS prompt:
-
- C:> copy A:*.* <cr> -or- copy B:*.* <cr>
-
- The DENTUREMAN files will be installed into the
- directory named " DMAN " on drive C. Once you have copied
- the archive file to the proper directory you must change to
- that directory. To uncompress the files simply type the name of
- the file(DMAN15S.EXE) .
-
-
-
-
- WHAT TO DO NEXT

- After all of the files are copied from the floppy to
- the directory on your hard disk, just type in the following
- command to start using DENTUREMAN.
-
