                 REGISTRATION REMINDERS

 Unlicensed copies of Wilson WindowWare products are 100% fully functional.
 We make them this way so that you can have a real look at them, and then
 decide whether they fit your needs or not.  Our entire business depends
 on your honesty.  If you use it, we expect you to pay for it.  We feel
 that if we treat you right, you will treat us right.

 Unlicensed copies of our products do have a pesky registration reminder
 screen that pops up whenever you start the program.  This shouldn't
 really affect your evaluation of our software.

 We're sure that once you see the incredible quality of our software,
 you will dig out your credit card, pick up the phone, call the nice
 people at our 800 number and register the software.

 When you pay for the shareware you like, you are voting with your
 pocketbook, and will encourage us to bring you more of the same kinds
 of products.  Pay for what you like, and voila, more of what you like
 will almost magically be developed.


                        LEGAL MATTERS

 Of course the usual disclaimers still apply.  We are not 
 responsible for anything at all.  Nothing.  Even if we are held 
 responsible, the limit of our liability is the licensing fees 
 you paid.  The full text of our license agreement is found near 
 the bottom of this file. 




               HOW TO INSTALL THIS SOFTWARE

  Use our snazzy setup program...

        1) Close down all extraneous Windows applications.  
           (You do have to be in Windows to run WSETUP.EXE)

        2) Double-Click on the WSETUP.EXE program.  (If you have the
           WinCheck product in front of you, the setup program is still
           called SETUP.EXE)

        3) When the setup program asks for a directory, specify initial 
           directory, or accept the given default.

        4) When the screen comes up that asks you what you want to
           install, do your selections, or just hit the INSTALL ALL
           button.  Hit the OK button to continue.


          ******************** MANUAL INSTALL *********************

      If you cannot use the snazzy setup program, and must do a manual
      install.....good luck.  Basically installing our products without
      going through the setup program is "unsupported", as installation
      of Windows products does get tricky.  However as to not leave you
      completely in the lurch....

      1) Most files to be installed by the installation program end in
         an underscore "_".   The files might be compressed.

             If you received the files on a DISK, the probability is HIGH
             that you must expand the files with our WEXPAND (see below)
             program before use.

            If you received the files packaged in a ZIP file, the
            probability is LOW. and you may simply rename the files to the
            correct name.

         If you try to expand a file that was not compressed, the expand
         program will NOT give an error message, and will NOT correctly
         process the file.  In general, if the output from the expand
         program is smaller than the file that went in, the expand program
         should not be used.

         By examining the files with our Browser (possibly included with
         the package) program, or basically any tool that allows you to
         look at the file in hex, one can quickly learn how to determine
         if the file is compressed or not.  If you can read *any* text
         in the morass of funny looking symbols, the file is probably not
         compressed.  If the characters seem completely random, the it
         probably is compressed.

      2) The files (generally) must either be expanded into files with the
         correct names, or must be renamed, prior to use.

      3) In general, the DLL files should go into your WINDOWS directory,
         or else some directory mentioned in your DOS path statement.

      4) The BROWSER.EXE program may be used to view the *.MAN manual
         files.  It is recommended that you put the BROWSER program in
         the same directory you put the DLL files.

      5) You may want to add to the WIN.INI [Extensions] section the
         following lines:

         MAN=BROWSER.EXE ^.MAN
         HLP=WINHELP ^.HLP
         WBT=WINBATCH.EXE ^.WBT


         *** USING THE WEXPAND PROGRAM ***

     Example:

     The installation diskette is inserted into your A: floppy drive
     
     You wish to expand the WININFO.EX_ file.  At the DOS prompt type...

       WEXPAND.EXE WININFO.EX_  WININFO.EXE

     Make sure the output file (WININFO.EXE in this case) is LARGER than
     the imput file (WININFO.EX_), otherwise the file was not compressed,
     and should be renamed as follows:

       REN WININFO.EX_ WININFO.EXE





                    UN-INSTALL INFORMATION

 The snazzy setup program will create a DOS batch file - UNINSTAL.BAT
 in the target directory that will un-install the product just installed.

 You may either review the batch file and perform a manual uninstall, or,
 if you have not installed any products *after* installing this product,
 go ahead and run the batch file.

 If you have installed several products before deciding to uninstall this,
 the uninstall will *generally* work successfully.  The only problem that
 occurs is when this product installs a file that the other products use.

 In general, this will only be a problem when you install several of our
 products, and will be much less of a problem if you install products from
 other vendors.  If problems occur, generally all that is required is to
 re-install the product that is complaining of a lack of a file.

 A quick review of the uninstall bat file, deleting a line or two for files
 you know are used by other products may be all that is required to
 successfully run the uninstall.


                    UPDATE POLICY

 It is the policy of Wilson WindowWare to protect faithful customers, and to
 derive the majority of our income via sales to new customers rather than
 continually attempting to extract more funds from existing customers.  Of
 course we must at least cover our costs or we could not stay in business
 bringing you new and updated software.

 Wilson WindowWare frequently updates it products.  There are various kinds
 of updates, including Major updates, Minor updates, and bug-fix updates.

 Minor and bug-fix updates for our shareware products are free -- subject
 only to our reasonable shipping and and handling charges for disks. As we
 are not in the disk selling business, you may find that shareware vendors
 specializing is disk sales can easily sell disks cheaper than we can.  On
 the other hand, we *always* have the most recent versions of our software.
 Our shipping and handling charges for update disks are as follows:

     10.00  US and Canada for the first product,
      5.00  US and Canada for each additional product.
      9.50  Surcharge for shipping outside of US and Canada.

 If you obtain a minor or bug-fix update from Compuserve or other online
 service, a BBS, a shareware disk vendor or from another source, there is
 no charge from us (of course you will have to pay the on-line service fees,
 disk vendors fees, or at least pay your phone bill for downloading from
 a BBS). In addition, you may use a single disk to update any number of
 copies of a product.

 The policy and pricing for Major shareware updates vary.  Depending on the
 nature of the upgrade, length of time since the previous major upgrade,
 desirability of new features added, the extent of revisions to the printed
 manuals (if any), work involved and possible price changes for new users,
 we may or may not charge fees.  Since it is difficult to determine what the
 cost of future major updates will be, and since we do not wish to commit 
 ourselves to the uncertainty of the future, we have provided information on
 the cost of major past updates here so that you can see our track record,
 and possibly feel reassured about the future.
