SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Grafer requires compatible PC computer with Windows 95/98/NT installed 
and running. The current memory in your computer should be adequate if 
you are able to use other Windows applications satisfactorily. The hard 
disk space needed is less than 500 kilobytes. 


GRAFER INSTALLATION

You will probably receive Grafer in one of two ways. In the first way, 
you will have a floppy disk with all of the individual files listed 
below:

      GRAFER.EXE    - Grafer executable for Windows 95/98 or greater
      GRAFER.HLP    - Grafer Help for Windows 95/98 or greater
      REGISTER.TXT  - Order form for Grafer
      README.TXT    - Getting Started Documentation
      GRAFER.CNT    - Grafer Help contents
      MFCH12.DLL    - Grafer helper library
      GRAFTEST.GRF  - A test graph as described in Help
      ELECT.GRF     - A graph of residential power consumption

      INSTALL.EXE   - Installation Program for Grafer
      VENDINFO.DIZ  - Grafer Product Information
      VENDOR.TXT    - (use VENDINFO.DIZ for all information)
      FILE_ID.DIZ   - Short description of Grafer

If you have a disk with all of the files above, use the instructions 
given in the section below titled, "USING THE INSTALL PROGRAM".

The second way to receive Grafer is in a compressed file or archive. The 
compressed file name should be GRAFER4.xxx where "xxx" indicates which 
file compression utility was used. In this case, use the suggestions 
given in the section titled, "INSTALL FROM A COMPRESSED FILE".

If you prefer to install Grafer manually, see the section titled, 
"INSTALL MANUALLY" below.


USING THE INSTALL PROGRAM

To install Grafer, start up Windows and put the Grafer floppy disk in 
Drive A. Follow the directions in the sections below: 

From the Start menu select Run. Type "A:INSTALL" in the dialog box that 
appears. After you press the ENTER key or click on the OK button, the 
Install program will start on the floppy drive. If you are installing 
from B drive, substitute the letter B for the letter A above.

The Install program will copy the Grafer files to a new folder titled 
"Grafer" on your hard drive (C:). You will have an opportunity to revise 
the folder name and installation location. Click on the OK button or 
press the ENTER key to start the file transfer to the folder you 
selected.

A menu item titled, "Grafer" will be added to the Start menu with 
"shortcuts" to the first four files listed above.


INSTALL FROM A COMPRESSED FILE

If you received Grafer as a single file such as GRAFER4.ZIP, copy this 
file to a temporary folder on your hard disk. Next, decompress the file 
using a decompression utility program such as WinZip. Several other 
compression/decompression utilities are in common use. You can probably 
obtain the correct utility from the same place you obtained the Grafer 
archive.

If the Grafer archive file name is GRAFER4.EXE, you decompress it by 
running it from your temporary folder. Just double-click on the file 
name in Explorer and the program will decompress. No other utilities are 
needed.

Once the archive file is decompressed, you should have all of the files 
listed above in your temporary folder. Now you can install Grafer as 
described above in the section titled, "USING THE INSTALL PROGRAM". 
Instead of typing "A:INSTALL" in the Run dialog box, you would type, 
"C:\TMP\INSTALL", where C:\TMP is the current hard drive and temporary 
folder where the files are located.


INSTALL MANUALLY

If you prefer to install Grafer manually, copy the first eight files 
listed above to the folder of your choice. Next, create a Start menu 
item by adding a folder called "Grafer" in Windows\Start Menu\Progams\ 
folder. Now, add four "shortcuts" to the "Grafer" folder for the first 
four files you copied to the folder of your choice above.


RUNNING GRAFER

Start Grafer by clicking on the Start menu and selecting the Programs 
menu item. Now, select the Grafer menu and then select the Grafer Line 
Graphs menu.

Selecting Exit from the File menu closes Grafer. You can also use the 
Alt+F4 key combination to do the same thing.


UNINSTALL GRAFER

Using Explorer, delete the folder containing the Grafer files. First, 
select the folder and then delete it by pressing the 'Delete' key. 
Grafer places a file named, "grafer.ini" in the Windows folder of your 
computer. You may also delete this file.

To remove the, "Grafer" item from the, Start menu, move to the, 
Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ folder using Explorer. Expand the folder by 
clicking on the "+". Now, click on the, Grafer folder and press the 
delete key.


GRAFER DOCUMENTATION

All of the Grafer features are documented in Grafer Help and can be 
accessed by selecting menu item Help and then Topics.

All of the menu items are fully documented in Grafer Help including the  
Grafer example. Context sensitive help is available by highlighting a 
menu item and pressing the F1 key.

To get started, click on the Help menu and then the Help Topics menu 
item. Then, review the introductory items in the Getting Started

SHAREWARE

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before 
buying it. If you try Grafer and continue using it for over 30 days, you 
are required to purchase it by registering. Any fees you paid to obtain 
the Shareware version were copying and distribution fees and did not 
cover the registration payment required for continued use of the 
program.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should 
find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's 
commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs 
easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is 
low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back 
guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.


ASP STATEMENT

This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware 
Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the Shareware principle 
works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related problem 
with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to 
help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem with 
an ASP member, but does not provide technical support for members' 
products. Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 157-F Love Ave.,
