 WHAT IS IT?
 -----------

 StartupSwapper Deluxe v2.01 changes the Windows startup screen!  Each
 time you run Windows, you can be greeted with a different screen of your
 design or choosing - or use your favorite everyday!  Replace Microsoft's
 advertising with corporate logos, family photos, sports cars, "heavenly
 bodies," custom designs - whatever you'd like!  PLUS: Saves tons of disk
 space by using the compact RLE format for all of your wallpaper needs!


 INSTALLATION
 ------------

 1) Copy all of the StartupSwapper Deluxe files to the directory of your
    choice on your hard disk, with the exception of the Randomizer Module
    (SWAPRAND.EXE). This file must be copied to your Windows directory.

 2) To install StartupSwapper Deluxe as an icon in a Program Manager
    group, consult the "Creating A Program Item" section of the Windows 3.1
    User's Guide (pages 78-82 in the English language version).  We suggest
    placing the main program (SWAPPER.EXE) in the group of your choice and
    the Randomizer Module (SWAPRAND.EXE) in your "Startup" group.

 3) That's all there is to it.  To learn more about using StartupSwapper
    Deluxe, run the main program (SWAPPER.EXE) and press F1 to browse the
    online help system.


 HOW DO I UPGRADE?
 -----------------

 StartupSwapper Deluxe version 2.01 is a FREE upgrade for owners of all
 previous versions of StartupSwapper Deluxe.  If you wish to obtain a
 fully licensed, registered version of this minor upgrade to version 2,
 please contact us.  Our phone number, address, CompuServe ID, and other
 contact information is provided below.


 WHAT'S NEW IN THIS VERSION?  or  SHOULD I BOTHER TO UPGRADE?
 ------------------------------------------------------------

 Since version 2.0...

 * The "Welcome to StartupSwapper Deluxe" introduction screen, intended
 to be seen only when the program is used for the first time, was seen
 continuously on a few systems.  This odd bug has been squashed.

 * The Randomizer Module would sometimes display the same RLE twice in a
 row on a few systems.  This bug has been fixed.

 * Some RLE files could not be viewed on a few systems.  On others,
 viewing a corrupted RLE file would cause the program to crash.  The RLE
 viewer has been modified to eliminate these bugs.


 HOW DO I REGISTER?
 ------------------

 Complete information on registration is available in the help file.  The
 help file can even print out a registration form for you on your
 printer.  Registration information is also located in the ORDER.TXT
 file. If you cannot locate either of these files or have some other type
 of difficulty, please contact us as directed below...
