MorphMaster 1.0 Readme.1st
==========================

MorphMaster is a Windows 3.1 & Visual Basic 3.0 application that assists
you in making multiple morph descriptions.  It only requires that you use
Windows 3.1 and have a communications program that will allow you to 
upload ASCII text files to FurryMuck.

The features of this version are as follows :

	Up-to 50 Morph Descriptions in one Setup Datafile
	Unlimited amount of Setup Datafiles!
	Easy Setup of Property replacements when you morph
	Preformatted descriptions are uploaded to the Muck!
	{And probably a few bugs too, but wih your help... ;)= }


It is extremely suggested that you @archive yourself before you upload
a MorphMaster description file, just in case...  ;)=


ALSO, I hate writing helpfiles and documentation, but there is a VERY brief
readme.wri file in the \MORPHER directory that you should take a look at before
attempting to use the program.  If someone likes writing instructions, please
do so!  I'll give you credit for it!  ;)=



INSTALLATION NOTES:

First you must unarchive the zipfile you just downloaded into either a
diskette in your A: drive or into a temporary directory on your harddrive.
Personaly, I suggest the harddrive cause diskette access time sucks!

To unarchive this application to your harddrive, type the following from
your dos command line.

   C: <ENTER>   {Or another drive letter if you have it available!}
   CD \ <ENTER> {To return to the Main Directory of the drive...}
   MD \INSTTEMP <ENTER>  {To make a Temporary Installation Directory...}
   pkunzip -x morpher.zip <DRIVE>:\INSTTEMP

After the files have been extracted, use either the FileManager or the 
Program Manager's "RUN" menu item to run a file called "SETUP.EXE"

After a successful installation, you can use the FileManager to delete
the entire \INSTTEMP directory.

The Installation program will update your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory with 
the following files if they are out of date:

\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VBRUN300.DLL
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CMDIALOG.VBX
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\COMMDLG.DLL
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\DDEML.DLL
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\GRID.VBX
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\THREED.VBX
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VER.DLL

And will create a application INI file in your \WINDOWS directory :

\WINDOWS\MORPHER.INI

All this should be transparent to the operation of your Windows, if in 
doubt, copy the preceding files onto a diskette to back them up!

The installation program would like to place MorphMaster into a directory
on your C:\MORPHER, you may override this at install time!


CONTACTING THE AUTHOR:

Just drop a note to Lycan@Tyrell.Net, I'm friendly, won't bite, less you like
that sort of thing...

I know of a few problems, mainly with deletions of morphs and properties, and 
I am working on it as you read this.
