(1/23/93) ASSASSIN.TXT for Voodoo / Assassin "Production" (version A.01) Voodoo / Assassin is a Windows accessory / utility that facilitates sharing resources (such as modem ports) by killing a running application (such as a fax program that runs "24 hours a day") to make room for a second application (for example, an Electronic Mail program). When the second application terminates, Assassin can optionally restore the original application. This file includes instructions for both installing Voodoo / Assassin, and for printing the documentation (if you do not already have a copy). Detailed instructions for use can be found in the main documentation. Windows installation from a diskette (preferred method) ------------------------------------ 1) Start Windows 2) If a version of Voodoo / Assassin is running, exit it before proceeding. If the running copy is waiting for a "Redo", terminate the program it is waiting for. 3) Insert the installation diskette in your floppy drive 4) From "Program Manager", select "File", then "Run" a) Enter "d:INSTALL", replacing "d" with the drive letter of your diskette drive b) Select "OK" Respond to the INSTALL dialog until the installation is complete DOS installation from a diskette (secondary installation method) --------------------------------- 1) Copy the files to the directory of your choice (called WEDIDIT in these instructions): For example, from "DOS prompt": C> MKDIR \WEDIDIT C> CD \WEDIDIT C> COPY A:*.* Printing the documentation ------------------------- From Windows, use Microsoft Write to print the documentation file ASSASSIN.WRI. For example, if you installed into the default directory (WEDIDIT): 1) Run "Write". NOTE: "Write" is one of the programs you received with Windows, and will be present unless you deleted it. This is NOT the same program as "Microsoft Word", which is a separately purchased word processor. 2) Select "File", then "Open" Enter "\WEDIDIT\ASSASSIN.WRI" and select "OK" 3) Select "File", then "Print"
