---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Introduction

CodeDigger searches textfiles for a searchpattern and displays
searchhits clearly arranged. With CodeDigger comes a complete 
WinHelp-documentation, simply press in mainwindow the help-button,
to get full documentation.

The main features are :

- CodeDigger is multithreaded , that's why you can look at first results
  while search is still going on.

- The searchresults are displayed in a logically designed 3-paned window
  ( filelist, list of searchhits, zoom onto a searchhit ). At every momemt,
  you keep overview about all results, while every searchit is (in most cases)
  only two mouseclicks away. CodeDigger supports a lot of current programming
  languages such that sourcecode is displayed multicolored
  ( Syntaxhighlighting ). This increases overview dramatically ( e.g. you
  automatically recognize, when a piece of sourcecode is a comment ).
- All colors and fonts can be adjusted to your needs.
  Switch between multiple search projects.

- Use wildcards *? in searchpattern.

- Enter multiple pathes for one search.

- Enter multiple groups of files for one search ( e.g. *.cpp,*.h )

- The last 25 searchparameters are saved, that's why you can repeat 
  a search with a couple of mouseclicks even days later.

- CodeDigger is a small, compact and robust tool . 
  It occupies only abot 1MB on harddisk, it does not change any 
  windowssystem-files or directories ( like e.g. the registry or 
  windows/system directory ).

- CodeDigger is very resonable priced . The Single User version costs only 
  45 German Marks ( 45 DM = ca. $28 ) . CodeDigger is shareware. Test the 
  full version for 30 days without any limitations and without any bindings. 
  When you order CodeDigger, you receive the bill and the registration 
  password. Only after this you have to transfer the money. You can also pay 
  by  creditcard using VISA, Eurocard/Mastercard or American Express . 
  With CodeDigger, you can create an order text, where the creditcard data 
  is filled in encrypted.

2) Installation of CodeDigger 

Requirements : PC with Windows95 or Windows NT4.0 installed

There are two versions of CodeDigger in the WorldWideWeb :
CodeDigger  Single User and CodeDigger Network Edition. 
The  Network-Edition contains a Setup program, which helps you 
installing CodeDigger on a network. In Network-Edition, CodeDigger 
Single User is fully included.

- Installation of CodeDigger Single User :
  After you have downloaded the file codedigs.zip,  you create a 
  CodeDig-directory by hand on your harddisk. Unzip the file into this 
  directory using pkunzip or WinZip.
  After that, you will find the file CodeDig2.exe in this directory. 
  At best you create a link on this file ( using the Windowsexplorer 
  and Drag & Drop ). CodeDigger is now fully installed. Now you can 
  simply start CodeDigger with a doubleclick.

- Installation of CodeDigger Network Edition :
  After you have downloaded the file CodeDig2.zip, unzip the file into 
  a temporary directory ( using pkunzip or WinZip ) . Start the file 
  setup.exe.

- Description of Setup
  First select, wether you want to install CodeDigger on a network or 
  on a single PC.  If you choose network installation, you can decide, 
  if  you want to create a client on the PC you are using.

- At last, you have to decide, if there shall be created a link to 
  CodeDigger in startmenu and/or on desktop.  The name of the link 
  will be CodeDigger V2.11.

- The networkversion offers only advantages, when CodeDigger shall be 
  used on multiple PCs. All important CodeDigger-files are saved onto 
  network, only the configuration file is saved on each PC in a special 
  directory. To install CodeDigger onto more PCs,  simply start on each 
  computer the setup.exe out of  networkpath.

  Advantages of Networkversion
     - Every user can work with his individual settings.  E.g. only his 
       last searchparameters are saved.  When you have a C++ programmer 
       and a Visual Basic programmer in next office, they don't get in 
       conflict because of wrong file suffixes, etc..

     - The networkversion minimizes administration work. When CodeDigger 
       is registrated, you have to enter the registration password only 
       at one computer. If there are updates on CodeDigger, you have to 
       install it only on one PC.

     - You install CodeDigger one time from a disk or from 
       internet-zipfile. For every other PC, you simply have to start 
       setup out of the network path.

     - You can use setup in a scripfile with parameters. No graphical 
       output is generated, if installation succeeds.
       E.g. 

       k:\codedig\setup d s c:\codedig

       Here, a client is installed on c:\codedig and a link in startmenu 
       and on desktop is generated. Please seperate all three parameters 
       by a space.

     - Setup doesn't change windows-system files or directories 
       ( e.g. registry, win.ini, etc. )  Only icons are added to the 
       desktop and startmenu ( if you wish to ).  If you want to delete 
       CodeDigger, simply delete the directories and Icons, CodeDigger 
       occupies no further byte on your harddisk or system.

3) What has changed in Bugfix V2.0 ->V2.11 ? 

The version 2.1 is mainly a bugfix, CodeDigger hasn't got new functionality. 

   - Textfiles, that were created on UNIX-sytems, couldn't be displayed by 
     CodeDigger V2.0 ( the linebreak chr(10) could not be handled ). Fixed. 
   - There was an error when displaying search results of files, that were 
     no sourcecode of any languages. The actual searchhit in searchhitlist 
     was unreadable. This has been corrected. 
   - You can now mark a word in fileview and start a search only in actual 
     file. 
   - CodeDigger now supports american date format ( when displaying filedates). 
   - There were some problems displaying large textfiles ( larger than 6000 
     lines ). Fixed. 
   - Under certain conditions, the multilinecomments weren't displayed 
     correctly. Fixed. 
   - You can now switch between searchresultwindows using Ctrl+Tab. 
   - Some smaller errors have been corrected. 
   
V2.1 ->V2.11
   - Some bugs, coming up in Windows NT only, were removed.
     ( Doubleclicking onto a directory name in the Browse window crashed 
       CodeDigger V2.1 )
   - Marking Text in fileview has been improved. ( DoubleClicking marks
     a complete word )
