Requirements
============
    MS-Windows 3.0 or above and a mouse is required to run EmPipe.
    
Installation
============
    If the files are on a floppy disk, you should first copy all the
files to hard disk.  To copy all the files to hard disk:

1)  Create a directory for EmPipe (and perhaps other EmSoft programs).
   For example, if your hard disk drive is c:, on Dos prompt, type:  

     c:
     mkdir \emsoft
     cd emsoft
    
2)  Copy all the files from the floppy disk to the hard disk.  For
   example if the floopy disk drive is a:,

     copy a:*.* 
    
    Now all the files are on hard disk.  Start Windows, and in Program
Manager (or Norton Desktop), select a group window where you would
like to add a EmPipe icon.  Choose 'New' from File menu, type "EmPipe" 
on the title field, hit Tab key to go to the program field, and type 
"c:\emsoft\empipe.exe" if this is where you copied the files.  Hit 
Enter key to close the dialog.  If you see an EmPipe icon in your 
desired group window, the installation is finished.  You are ready to 
double click the icon and enjoy EmPipe!
