An Algor directory will automatically be created while the software
is beeing loaded. Repeat instructions until all the software is loaded.

Once loaded, please test the software following these steps:

 1. Type "SETGRAPH"
 2. Type "S" to change screen device
 3. Type "J" for VGA Graphics or select other appropriate screen device.
 4. Type "I" to set input device.
 5. Type "D" to select mouse.
 6. Type "E" to set mode.
 7. Type "6" (for VGA) or the highest number shown for the selected 
             graphics device.
 8. <ENTER> twice to quit.
 9. Type "MENUS"
10. Type "A" for modeling and input.
11. Type "A" for Superdraw II.

At this point, the Algor modeling screen should come up on the monitor.
If any type of error message is displayed, please contact Algor.
To exit from Algor, simply:

 1. Type "Q" for quit.
 2. Hit any key.
 3. "ESCAPE"
 4. Type "Q"
