DESCRIPTION:
===========

If you have an internal modem, an external modem out-of-sight of
your computer, or a PCMCIA modem, this is the program for You!

ModemSta, the MODEM STATUS ICONIC INDICATOR, will help you in
operating your modem by showing a small animated icon replica 
or indicator display window (several formats are selectable) of 
a typical modem's front panel.

A number of handy functions has also been added such as modem 
initialization, logging of incoming calls and connections, 
additional status info, summary of all communications settings 
in DOS and Windows, generation of sound in parallel to or instead 
of the telephone's ring signal and at line connection events. 
The status and activity of the parallel ports in your system 
can also be monitored.


INSTALLATION:
============

ModemSta files are installed using a Windows-based installation
program (SETUP.EXE).  ModemSta requires Windows 3.1 or higher.

Simply UnZIP all the files into a temporary directory and from
within Windows, run SETUP.EXE to install MODEMSTA.  SETUP.EXE will 
copy the ModemSta files to a directory of your choice; no changes 
are made to win.ini, system.ini, autoexec.bat etc.  

SETUP.EXE will also copy CTL3D.DLL to the Windows system directory 
(e.g. C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM), but will not overwrite a newer version. 
A Program Manager Group will also be created if you select so.
Read more about the program and its settings in the HELP file!


REGISTRATION:
============

Thanks to K/S/B, it's easy :)  To register ModemSta, follow the 
normal install procedure through, and start up modemsta.exe. Now
click on the upper-left [-] on the ModemSta window and select
"Setup & About ...".  Click the center button at the bottom of
the "ModemSta - Setup & About" dialog.  The button should say
"Enter Reg Code...".  Type in your desired registration name
and in the field next to "Registration Number", type:

	0000000

ModemSta will automagically register itself and cease to nag you.  
You can verify this by looking at the space above the three bottom
buttons in the "ModemSta - Setup & About" dialog; it should say
"REGISTERED TO: [name]".  Not a single line of code modified!


UNINSTALLING:
============

Delete all the MODEMSTA.* files in the directory you installed 
them to and delete MODEMSTA.INI in the Windows directory.
