README.TXT - this file
INSTALL.EXE - an installation utility
INSTALL.DAT - data for install.exe
_FILES.ZIP - a compressed file in PKZip/Winzip format containing:HABmon.exe (the program file)
HABmon.hlp (the Help file)
The Install.exe utility in this package makes installation very easy. All you have to do is to run Install and either accept the suggested folder or enter a different folder name. The files will be copied to the correct locations.
If you have received this package as a "ZIP" file, you will probably already have "unzipped" the installation files or be reading this file in "Winzip" or a similar utility. If you are using Winzip, simply click on the Winzip Install button and the installation utility will start.
If you have received the package on disk or have already unzipped the files, locate the folder (directory) which holds the files and run Install.
You can run Install as follows
- In Windows 3.1x, open File Manager and select the folder containing the HABmon Installation files. Select the File|Run command, enter the command-line "install" and click on [OK].
Or you can open an MSDOS window and type the command there, using the full path name for the Install program: eg "C:\temp\install" or "A:\install". Then press [Enter].
- In Windows 9x, click on the Start button, select "Run" and enter the command-line [your folder name]"\install" eg "C:\temp\install" or "A:\install" and click on [OK].
- The install utility will prompt you for the name of a folder to hold the HABmon files.
Use the path suggested unless you have a good reason not to (eg. you are already using a folder named C:\habmon)
You will have the option of installing icons/shortcuts for the files.
When you click on the [OK] button, the files will be installed to the folder you have chosen.
- Create a folder for your HABmon files. (C:\habmon is suggested)
- Find the folder containing the extracted files and copy _files.zip and Readme.txt to your HABmon folder.
- Change folders to your HABmon folder and use an unzip utility to extract the files.
eg. if you are using the pkunzip utility, you would use the command "pkunzip _files.zip"
- Create Program Manager icons or desktop shortcuts in the normal manner.
- Delete the files habmon.exe and habmon.hlp. If you created a folder for HABmon and it no longer contains files then delete it also.
- If you installed icons:-
WINDOWS 3.1 - delete the HABmon Program Group and any other related icons
WINDOWS 95/98 - delete any HABmon shortcuts on the desktop and the folder C:\WINDOWS\Start Menu\Programs\habmon
