                 Neural Ned in NED'S WORLD - Shareware Version 1.0
                         by David S. Smiczek, Copyright 1993


            Welcome to Neural Ned in NED'S WORLD!  This is an
            educational game that runs on Microsoft Windows 3.X.  It
            uses a neural network to train a little critter (NED) to run
            about in his world (NED'S WORLD).  The better you train him,
            the longer he lives. The trained neural networks can be
            saved for trading or competition.  A licensed version of
            this game comes with C-source code to the neural network
            routines and illustrated printed documentation.  The order
            form can be found in the file ORDERFRM.DOC and it is
            explained in NEDWORLD.DOC.  This file contains the file
            list, installation and document printing instructions.

            Installation:

            This software package does not have an installation program.
            This was intentional.  A common complaint with Windows 3.X
            is that it is difficult to un-install a software package.
            To not add to this problem I am going to allow you the user,
            to keep everything in one directory where you can easily
            remove it.  Except for the conditions described in 'Short on
            disk space?' at the end of this file, keep all of the files
            in this software package together in one directory.

               1. Create a directory on your hard drive to keep Neural
                  Ned in NED'S WORLD. For example lets use a directory
                  called 'NEDWORLD' in the root directory of drive 'C:':

                     C:
                     cd \
                     mkdir nedworld





               2. Copy all of the files listed above to the new
                  directory. For example if the files were on a:

                     copy a:\*.* C:\NEDWORLD

               3. Add Neural Ned in NED'S WORLD to your 'GAMES' Windows
                  group.  Open your 'GAMES' Windows group by double
                  clicking on it.  From the 'File' menu of Program
                  Manager, choose 'New' and 'Program Item'.  In the
                  'Command Line' box type 'C:\NEDWORLD\NEDWORLD.EXE'.
                  Click on the 'OK' button.  The green NED icon should
                  appear in the 'GAMES' Windows group.


            Short on disk space?

               The files that came with the software package with the
               'VBX' and 'DLL' extensions may be common to other Windows
               programs you have.  If there are more then 1 copies of
               any of these files on your hard drive, then place 1 copy
               in your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory and delete all of the
               rest.


            Printing documentation:

               The document files are preformatted text files.  They can
               be copied directly to the printer.  For example, the main
               document can be printed by doing the following from the
               NEDWORLD directory.

                  copy NEDWORLD.DOC PRN
