- THE LATEST WINDOWS '95 PROGRAMS
- ===================================
-
- THANK YOU FOR BUYING THIS CD-ROM.
-
- This CD-ROM includes the latest and best collection of Windows '95
- programs and tools. We have custom written the P.I.E. viewer/
- installer that makes reading ZIP files a snap.
-
- The viewers on this CD are custom-written for this CD-ROM.
- They are easy to use and powerful.
-
- P.I.E. viewer has "see-thr'" capability to view the inside contents
- of ZIP files without unzipping them. This is a very useful feature.
- The viewer can also launch any programs.
-
- The P.I.E. viewer has been tested under WINDOWS '95 and runs fine.
-
- Depends on your system, you may need at least 600K RAM to run
- the P.I.E. viewer under the main menu. If you get "insufficient
- memory" message, simply get out of Windows and the main menu.
- Then type: W95 <ENTER>
- To run the viewer directly from Windows. See TROUBLE-SHOOTING
- section for more help if you still have problems.
-
- No installation is needed if you use our P.I.E. program
- viewer. It also does not install any icon or program group in your
- Windows desktop either. Most people like this low profile feature.
-
- The P.I.E. program viewer lets you see any text file (.DOC, .TXT,
- or .ASC) and ZIP file. It lets you unzip file to the directory
- of your choice.
-
- To start browsing, simply click on the WIN95 directory which
- will give you a long list of subdirectories. Click
- on the ones that you want to examine. Click on any text or
- document file for descriptions of the programs. A good place
- to start is to click on the .DIZ file if available. .DIZ
- file lists a concise description of the program. Click on
- any .EXE or .BAT file twice will test run the program.
- Click on any .ZIP file will let you "see" inside the content
- of the compressed file. You can also unzip the ZIP file to
- your hard drive by clicking on the "copy to hard disk" button.
-
- Some programs may not run in your hard disk if it has an
- "R" attribute. ALL files on CD-ROM is flagged "R" to prevent
- your PC from writing on the CD-ROM. This "R" attribute will
- stay with the file even though you copy the file into your
- hard disk. To remove this attribute, simply
- type: ATTRIB *.* -r < ENTER >
