What is JWP?

    JWP is a Japanese word processor designed to run under Microsoft
Windows.  It is distributed under the GNU General Public License.



What's New?

	This is version 1.01, the first maintenance release from version 
1.0 beta of JWP.  The following bugs are fixed:

		- Dictionary insert-to-file now works  :-)
		- The problem with printing one line on certain ink-jet and
		  dot-matrix printers is now (hopefully) fixed
		- You can now print out TrueType fonts on dot-matrix printers

Additions to version 1.0 beta are:

		- On-line help.  The help system contains the complete JWP
		  manual.  People who don't have Word for Windows 2.0 can
		  now (at last) read the manual.  :-)
		- Templates, a time- and sanity-saver


Updating from Version 1.0 Beta

	For those of you updating to JWP 1.01 from version 1.0 beta, you
need only copy the following files into your JWP directory:

		JWP.EXE
		JWP.HLP
		MANUAL.DOC
		README.TXT

In order to preserve you current settings, you need to use a text editor
(Windows Notepad, for example) to edit the file 'JWP.INI' in your
Windows directory.
	Add the following lines under the section '[File Names]':

		JWP Directory=<Your JWP directory>
		Help File=<Your JWP directory>\JWP.HLP

	Add the following line at the END of the JWP.INI file:

		Help=F1

Save the file and exit the editor.  Your new version of JWP is now
ready to run.
	If you prefer, you can use the MAKEINI.EXE program that comes with
this version to create a brand-new JWP.INI file.  Beware, however, that
all your settings will be lost.



First-Time Installation

    To install JWP, follow the steps outlined below.  I realize that
this installation process is more manual than necessary; however, since
JWP is a freeware project, I do not have the option of bundling a
commercial installer.  Maybe someday I'll write one. . . Meanwhile,
sorry for the inconveniences.

Prepare:    Make sure you are in DOS and not Windows.  If you are
            currently running Windows, either exit it or run a DOS
            window.  To exit Windows, choose 'File Exit' from the
            Program Manager menu.  To run a DOS window, double-click on
            the DOS Prompt icon in the 'Main' program group.

Step 1:     Create a new directory for JWP.  For example, if you want to
            call the directory C:\JWP, you should type:

                C:  <Return>
                MD \JWP  <Return>

Step 2:     Switch to the directory.  For example:

                CD \JWP  <Return>

Step 3:     Unpack all the 'zip' files into the new sub-directory.  For
            example:

                PKUNZIP JWPPROG.ZIP  <Return>
                PKUNZIP JWPDICT.ZIP  <Return>
                        :
                        :

Step 4:     Make sure that you have all the files necessary for JWP.  A
            list of all the files can be found following these
            instructions.

Step 5:     Type the command:

                MAKEINI  <Return>

            This program will create a default initialization file
            called JWP.INI, using the name of the current directory.
            Because of this, it is critical that you are in the JWP
            directory when you do this.  (Follow the steps outlined
            above closely)

            You will also be asked to type in the name of the Windows
            directory.  In many systems, the Windows directory is
            something like C:\WINDOWS.  MAKEINI will attempt to create
            the initialization file in your Windows directory.

Step 6:     If all goes well without errors (Whew!), JWP is ready to
            run.  Unlike many commercial Windows programs, JWP does not
            automatically install itself into the Program Manager.  It
            is necessary for you to use the 'File New' command and add a
            program item into the appropriate program group.  You can
            now run JWP by double-clicking on the JWP icon.

	The following files should come with the JWP package, but they are not critical.  If you do not have them, however, you should check with the place you obtained the JWP package from.

        MANUAL.DOC      - This User's Manual (in Microsoft Word for Windows 2.0 format)
        GNUGPL.WRI      - The GNU General Public License (in Windows Write format)

	The following files may come with your package.  They are not part of the standard JWP distribution.  They are likely to be personal files left over by the previous user whom you received this package from.  It is up to you whether to keep them or not.
