INSTALLATION

    Unpack this file in the directory where you plan to perform your
recipe conversions.  Probably the same directory your recipe database
is.  The files in this package should be:

     RECIPECO.EXE - Executable
     RECIPECO.DOC - More Information about Recipeco
     READ.ME      - This file
     MEASLIST.TXT - File with known measurements
     INGRLIST.TXT - File with known ingredients
     
**   All of these files have changed since the last release, so be sure to 
**   remove the old ones before updating.

   Enjoy using Recipeco.exe.  I know I do :-)



** WHATS NEW

**    1.00 has some small fixes to the MealMaster, QuikBook and Vittles
** parsing to support some of the "non-standard" things that can happen
** to these files on the net.  This version also introduces a FULL
** automatic conversion from the supported recipe styles (including
** OTHER) to CompuChef, Vittles and Stevens format by using CC, VT, and
** ST on the command line, respectively. Conversion of recipes from the 
** supported styles to QuikBook format is also still available.
**    The accuracy of the non-QuikBook conversions depends on the
** initial format.  Some of the more Free-form formats (QB and OT)
** show about a 98% accuracy.  Others (such as CompuChef) are much
** closer to a 99.99% accuracy.  What this means is that you probably
** want to review the file in your favorite editor before
** actually performing the import.
**    There hasn't been much enthusiasm for a Windows version so far, so
** would like to hear from some folks before I create one. Be sure to
** drop me a line if you're interested.
**    Will be open for other ideas.  As always, I'm interested
** in hearing any ideas you might have for this program.
