    Installation:
    =============

    If you have downloaded this product then unzip the archive into a
    temporary directory on your hard drive and run the INSTALL program found
    in that directory.  You may then delete the temporary directory.

    If this product was supplied on a diskette then simply run the INSTALL
    program found on the diskette.



    Version 2.1
    ===========

    Version 2.0 would sometimes fail to install under Windows NT due to
    a problem in a 3rd party DLL included in version 2.0 to handle the
    import of JPG files.  This problem is now fixed.  Minor changes in
    the help file and ordering information have also been made.



    New version 2 enhancements:
    ===========================

    Version 2 contains 13 major new features, 18 enhancements and
    9 bug fixes.  For a full list, please see the online help
    under "Version 2 changes".  Here are just some of them:

	- Trays for storing and solving parts of the jigsaw.
	- Import of various image file formats when creating jigsaws.
	- Background color per jigsaw plus auto-color modes.
	- Optional seconds on timer with countdown and alarm.
	- Programmable snap-to distance.
	- Dockable toolbars - makes handling tall jigsaws easier.
	- Shuffle and preview buttons for music, plus more tunes.
	- Programmable sounds with more sound effects.
	- Print feature.
	- Delete file feature.



    What makes Jigsaws Galore the best?
    ===================================

1.  Powerful!  Play and create jigsaws from 4 to 4,000 pieces.

2.  Easy!  Even a complete novice can start solving jigsaws immediately.
    The jigsaw preview screen makes finding your favorite jigsaw a snap
    and even lets you change the number of pieces in the jigsaw.

3.  Full-featured!  Automatically arrange pieces around the outside of the
    board to leave room to solve the puzzle.  Other programs make you scroll
    the screen to find a piece.  You can never lose a piece "off screen" with
    this program!  We take away the drudgery by sorting pieces by shape or
    color, as you wish.  Change the size of pieces on the fly.  Now you can
    fit all of the pieces on the board all of the time.  And it's so easy to
    create new jigsaws!  Of course there's flying hints, context sensitive
    help, toolbars, status bar, sound and music, as you'd expect.

4.  Fun!  The jigsaws look (and sound) great.  Just like real ones.  Sneaky
    cheat modes let you flash the piece you're looking for, or fetch it, or
    turn pieces the right way up.  You can even watch the jigsaw solve itself.

    

    About the program:
    ==================

    The program requires Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 and the evaluation version
    takes around 4MB of disk space when installed.  Please see the online
    ordering information for details of how to order the full version and
    extra jigsaws, including CD-ROM version with 130 jigsaws and bonus games.
