1. Introduction
----------------
Setup Specialist 98 is a visual setup development tool for Windows(r) 95 and Windows NT(r). Setup Specialist offers a user-friendly visual development environment that does not require you to learn any script language...all options can be set using a wizard-like graphical interface. It provides a training card feature that guides you through all the steps necessary to create your setup program. Creating a professional-looking setup program for your software has never been easier! 
Setup Specialist creates 32 bit as well as 16 bit setup programs and provides support for selective installations, uninstall, creation of program groups and registry modifications and creates English as well as German setup programs. The setup programs created by Setup Specialist are featured by the typical Windows 95 wizard appearance. Setup can check for a variety of existing requirements including minimum display properties and CPU, Windows platform and version. Creating a single EXE file allows you to easily distribute your applications in a single file, through the web, internet, and even E-mail. And finally Setup Specialist supports many other features, e.g. billboards, checking for an expiration date, efficient data compression, modification of INI files, password protection, and more.
