INSTALLATION:

1- Put your floppy disk with the compressed alloallo.zip in 
drive a: or b:

2- Uncompress it using the appropriate software (pkzip, arc, Lha
and so on)

3- Start Windows 3.1 or higher.Close all running application.

4- From File Manager run SETUP.EXE or DoubleClick the file.

5- Follow the instrutions on the screen

6 - The SETUP routine will create a new program group and 
some items in your program manager.

7 - Have a look on the help files and registration file 

IMPORTANT:

1-MAKE SURE YOU READ THE PORT SETUP comments.

2- The first time you run the several software tools, such as 
file manager, Text editor etc. choose and save your settings, to
get a customized environment.

3-I personally do not recommend any screen saver to be running 
during communication section. Windows interrupts are not reliable
and it might "hang" during downloads and/or uploads.

4-The AlloAllo communication for Windows application is not freeware program.
It is distributed as shareware. See shareware file enclosed for description.

The author has spent more than 300 hours in research, design, coding, 
debugging and documentation.  Hence in return all I'm asking for is a 
reasonable sum for me to keep developing this powerful communication system.
Most important, at an AFFORDABLE PRICE!!

1- Database for for most general modems support settings

2- OLE Support for SPREADSHEET, WORDPROCESSORS etc.

3- MULTIPLE PORT COMMUNICATION ACCESS SIMULTANEOUSLY
