        PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:

             TINYPROG  converts  EXE and COM programs to a  smaller  file
        size. TINYPROG compresses most programs from 10% to 30%.   Before
        it  runs, the compressed program thoroughly verifies that it  has
        not  been  tampered  with  or  accidentally  changed.    Software
        developers  may include easily patched, un-compressed  data  with
        their TINYPROG'ed programs.

             When  run with no command line arguments, TINYPROG  explains
        how  you  may use it.  A command line option  tells  TINYPROG  to
        print its own documentation to the screen, file, or printer.



        INTENDED USER:

             PC  users  with limited disk space - who need  to  use  more
        programs than their disks will hold.

             Anyone  who  wishes  to stop  others  from  running  certain
        programs.

             PC software developers who wish to ship a smaller program.

             PC  software developers who want to ship programs that  will
        stay un-corrupted in the field.

             PC  software  developers  who want to  make  their  programs
        easily able to self-configure their own run-time file.

             PC  software developers who want their programs to  be  very
        difficult for users to scan with file-dump programs and to  patch
        with debuggers.



        FEATURES OF THE PROGRAM WITH RESPECT TO OTHERS:

             TINYPROG produces significantly smaller files than  EXEPACK.
        Plus,  corrupted TINYPROG'ed programs generally quit  gracefully,
        rather than locking up the machine.

             TINYPROG gives the program developer an area in the  program
        file that is as easy to patch as if the program were a COM file.

             TINYPROG  allows  you to stop those without knowledge  of  a
        password from running a program.



        PROGRAM LIMITATIONS:

             TINYPROG will not convert:

                  DOS.
                  COMMAND.COM
                  Programs with internal overlays.
                  Programs that configure themselves by writing data back
                       into the program file.  Such programs must  either
                       be made TINYPROG-aware by the program's author, or
                       they   may  not  be  re-configured   after   being
                       TINYPROG'ed.
                  Windows/OS-2 EXE files.



        MACHINE REQUIREMENTS:

             TINYPROG  requires  DOS  2.X or above and  100k  of  program
        memory.   Generally, TINYPROG'ed programs require nothing  beyond
        the requirements of the original program.



        HOW TO START THE PROGRAM:

             C>tinyprog

             TINYPROG  explains  how  to  print  full  instructions   and
        documentation.



        REGISTRATION FEE:

             The higher of:
                  1/10th of the added value to the user.
                or
                  $15.



        WHAT COMES WITH REGISTRATION:

             A diskette with a lastest version of the registered  version
        of   TINYPROG.    The  registered  version  needs   no   operator
        interaction to convert program files.  (Specify 5.25 or 3.5 disk)



        LIST OF PROGRAM FILES:

             TINYPROG.EXE             The program and documentation file.
