     1.  NORTON pcANYWHERE AND WINDOWS 3.0
     =====================================
     
     Novell NetWare
     --------------
     Windows 3.0 users may experience problems with NetWare IPX
     connections due to a problem in the driver supplied with
     Windows 3.0.  You can obtain a new driver (VPIX.386) from
     your Microsoft or Novell representative.
     
     Data Rates
     ----------
     Serial connections under Windows 3.0 have been found to be
     most stable at data rates below 19.2K bps.  If a connection
     of 19.2K bps or higher is required while running Windows 3.0
     we recommended that the Host TSR be in memory.
     
     COM Ports
     ---------
     In Windows 3.0 environments, the Host's COM port cannot be
     shared. For example, if you have the Host TSR in memory, no
     calls out can be made from this machine without first
     unloading the Host DOS TSR.
     
     
     2.  GENERAL INFORMATION
     =======================
     
     Naming Your Computer
     -------------------------
     The following characters are not valid characters for use in
     your COMPUTER NAME. This is to insure that the name you
     choose for your computer is acceptable to your network
     environment.
     
     \  /  :  ;  ,  *  ?  .  "  <  >  =  +  |  [  }  _  '
     
     
     Installing the Host
     -------------------
     If you did not install the Windows or Full-screen DOS Host
     when you installed pcANYWHERE, you can do so without having
     to reinstall the entire program.
     
     To install the Host:
     1. Double-click the Host Install icon in the pcANYWHERE group
        window.
     2. Check the "Allow this computer to be controlled from
        another computer" checkbox to allow your computer to act
        as a Host.
     3. Check the "Allow remote users to run full screen DOS
        Applications" checkbox to run the DOS TSR. The DOS TSR
        allows remote users to exit from Windows to DOS and to run
        full screen DOS Applications.
     4. Click OK.
     5. Click Exit to DOS.
     6. Reboot your computer.
     
     Uninstalling the Host
     ---------------------
     You should uninstall the Host when you need to make changes
     to your computer's display, keyboard or mouse. See "Changing
     Hardware Drivers" later in this document for more
     information.
     
     To uninstall the Host:
     1. Double-click the Host Install icon in the pcANYWHERE group
        window.
     2. Uncheck the "Allow this computer to be controlled from
        another computer" checkbox.
     3. Click OK.
     4. Click Restart Windows.
     
     Changing Host Options
     ---------------------
     If the Host is loaded (that is, the DOS TSR is in memory or
     the Windows Host is minimized), any changes made in the
     Configure Host Operations dialog box or the Be a Host dialog
     box will not take effect until the Host is canceled and
     restarted.
     
     Loading Mouse Drivers
     ---------------------
     The pcANYWHERE install program will try to locate the Host
     TSR line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file after any mouse drivers.
     If you add mouse drivers to your AUTOEXEC.BAT, be sure to add
     them before the Host TSR line.
     
     Starting the Gateway and Host TSRs
     ----------------------------------
     The Gateway and Host TSRs are DOS programs, and as such must
     be started before you start Windows. Attempting to start them
     after you have started Windows is unsupported.
     
     Norton Desktop for Windows
     --------------------------
     If you install while using Norton Desktop for Windows as your
     Windows shell, then switch to Program Manager as the shell,
     you will need to set up a group box for pcANYWHERE. Please
     refer to your Windows manual for information on setting up
     group and items for Program Manager.
     
     pcANYWHERE and CTL3D.DLL
     -------------------------
     pcANYWHERE supplies a copy of a DLL called CTL3D. This DLL is
     placed in your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory. This DLL is supplied
     by Microsoft with many applications.  If you install other
     applications after installing pcANYWHERE and experience a
     loss of 3D effect, your new applications may have overwritten
     our version of CTL3D with an older one.  To fix this you can
     copy this DLL from your pcANYWHERE distribution diskettes to
     the SYSTEM directory.
     
     Online Terminal Mode
     --------------------
     The Edit menu option in the 'Online Terminal' has no 'copy'
     command. This is because any information selected in the
     terminal is automatically placed in the copy buffer.
     
     Mouse Clicks
     ------------
     Due to communications delays, you may need to alter the
     'double click' speed for your mouse.  By lowering the delay
     rate, Windows will respond better to double clicking during a
     connection.  For more information on changing the mouse
     settings, see your Windows User's Guide.
     
     
     3.  CHANGING HARDWARE DRIVERS
     =============================
     
     Whenever you install a new monitor, keyboard or mouse, or
     change display resolution, you generally must also run
     software that comes with the device. This software changes
     entries in your SYSTEM.INI file. After installing pcANYWHERE,
     care must be taken not to change entries in your SYSTEM.INI
     file without uninstalling pcANYWHERE first. pcANYWHERE relies
     on the settings it places in this file. Modifications may
     effect the program execution. For more information, see
     "Installing the Host" and "Uninstalling the Host" earlier in
     this document.
     
     For example, programs that let you change screen resolution
     for your display adapter actually change the display driver
     in your SYSTEM.INI file.  This overwrites information needed
     by pcANYWHERE.
     
     
     4.  PHYSICAL/LOGICAL FONTS
     ==========================
     
     pcANYWHERE provides the ability to change how fonts are used
     during a connection. pcANYWHERE users can change the
     'logicalfonts' section in the WINDOWS\PCAW.INI file to select
     one of two modes, LOGICAL or PHYSICAL fonts.  Users can
     experiment with the setting to effect initial connection
     speed and the general look of some applications run remotely.
     The default setting has been found to be appropriate for most
     environments.
     
     [font]
     logicalfonts=<number>
     
     If this section is not included in the PCAW.INI file,
     pcANYWHERE defaults to logicalfonts=0.
     
     number    meaning
     ------    -------
       0       pcANYWHERE Host sends extra data to the Remote for
               each character displayed in order for the character
               to appear correctly on the Remote's screen.  While
               this setting gives you the best representation of
               the Host's screen, pcANYWHERE has to send more data
               which may cause your pcANYWHERE session to slow
               down slightly.  You should use this setting for the
               following situations:

               *  The Remote does not have the same fonts
                  installed at the Host.
               *  Connecting to a 4.5x Host.  pcANYWHERE 4.5
                  always sends physical font information.  If you
                  connect to a pcANYWHERE 4.5x Host with
                  logicalfonts=1, Windows text will not appear
                  correctly on the Remote's screen.
               *  Connecting to a VGA Host with an EGA Remote.
                  Text may not appear correctly with
                  logicalfonts=1.  While in a DOS Window,
                  horizontal lines may appear unless
                  logicalfonts=0.
     
       1       Logical font information instructs pcANYWHERE to
               send the name of the fonts in use by the Host
               system.  If the Remote has the same font,
               pcANYWHERE uses it to display the hosts screen as
               accurately as possible.  If the Remote system does
               not have the same font, the Windows environment
               selects the closest matching font available.  This
               will improve text speed slightly at the risk of
               getting incorrect font data on your screen.
     
     
     5.  PRINTING
     ============
     
     Printing From the Host
     ----------------------
     In order to print from the Host, the port must be changed on
     the Host computer to LPT1.DOS in the Windows Control Panel.
     Choose the Printer icon, click the Connect button, then
     select the port.
     
     Printing with the Remote Only Setting
     -------------------------------------
     If printing is set up for Remote Only, pcANYWHERE will start
     printing when the Remote computer brings up the Online Menu
     or ends the session.
     
     
     6.  pcANYWHERE 4.5
     ==================
     
     Configuration Files
     -------------------
     The first-time that pcANYWHERE for Windows is run, any
     existing pcANYWHERE 4.5 configuration files that are in the
     personal directory will be automatically scanned and new
     pcANYWHERE for Windows 1.0 files will be built from them.
     This will not alter the existing 4.5 configuration files. We
     do recommend backing up any existing 4.5 configuration files
     prior to installing pcANYWHERE 1.0 as a precaution.
     
     Online Menu
     -----------
     pcANYWHERE 4.5 users should note that double clicking on the
     'In Session' icon will display the Online Menu. This replaces
     the 'hotkey' sequence in pcANYWHERE 4.5.
     
     Uninstalling
     ------------
     Care must be taken if users want to run pcANYWHERE 4.5 and
     pcANYWHERE for Windows 1.0 on the same computer. Symantec
     recommends uninstalling one product before installing the
     other. This will avoid any conflicts and provide the best
     results.
     
     
     7.  DOS TSR
     ===========
     
     Minimizing the Host Icon
     ------------------------
     If the Host DOS TSR is loaded in memory with the -m=r switch
     set, the switch setting will override the 'Minimize While
     Waiting' checkbox in the Configure Host Operations dialog box
     and the Host will always be minimized while it waits for a
     call.
     
     File Transfer
     -------------
     pcANYWHERE for Windows 1.0 provides File Transfer
     capabilities in the Windows host module( Winhost.exe ).  The
     DOS TSR provided with pcANYWHERE 1.0 still requires the
     Windows host for file transfer capabilities.
     
     To Set Up the Windows Host:
     *  Run the pcANYWHERE for WINDOWS Host install and check both
        checkboxes (Allow this computer to be controlled from
        another computer and Allow remote users to run full screen
        DOS applications) on the first screen that comes up.
     Or,
     *  Check the Auto Start Host checkbox in the Configure Host
        Operation dialog box.
     
     Resident Mode
     -------------
     After installing pcANYWHERE for Windows 1.0 and prior to
     loading the DOS TSR, you must run pcANYWHERE and set up your
     hardware information and Computer Name.  Without doing this
     the DOS TSR can not properly execute.
     
     Quick Connect
     -------------
     When the DOS TSR is launched, it reads configuration settings
     from the Be a Host dialog box.  If you change Quick Connect
     settings for the Host while the TSR is in memory, the
     message, "TSR is busy with another device" will appear. This
     is not an error condition. If you require the ability to
     change settings dynamically, simply remove the TSR from
     memory prior to launching pcANYWHERE.
     
     
     8.  Command Line Options
     ========================
     
     For WINAW.EXE
     -------------
     The Windows Host (WINAW.EXE) can have the following command
     line arguments:
     
     -i=<userid>  User-id (only used when administrator
                  installation used)
     -o=r         Remote operation
     -o=h         Host operation
     
     Operating mode:
     -m=d         Dial
     -m=w         Wait for a Call
     -m=v         Voice First
     -m=s         Run a script (for -o=r only)
     
     -n=<host_entry>        Host directory entry (for -o=r and -
                            m=d, w, v)
     -s=<online_serv_entry> online service directory entry (for -
                            o=r and -m=d, w, v)
     -n=<script_filename>   script filename (for -o=r and -m=s
                            only)
     -n=<phone_number>      phone number to dial for Host dial
                            operation (for -o=h and -m=d only)
     -c=<hardware_setup>    hardware setup for Host operation (for
                            -o=h only)
     
     Examples:
     Remote operation to dial a Host (administrator install):
     WINAW -i=userid -o=r -m=d -n=A HOST ENTRY
     
     Host operation to wait for a call (standard install):
     WINAW -o=h -m=w -c=MODEM CONFIGURATION
     
     For AW5HOST.EXE
     ---------------
     The DOS TSR (AW5HOST) can have the following command line
     arguments:
     -I=<userid>  User-id (only used when administrator
                  installation used)
     -M=R         Start the Host in resident mode.  (inactive)
     -M=A         Start the Host to accept a call at any time (in
                  background)
     -M=W         Start the Host to wait for a call (in
                  foreground)
     -W=<path>    DOS path to your Windows directory.  This is not
                  required if the -I=xxxxx is used.
     
     -P=<path>    DOS path to your configuration files.  This is
                  not required if you are using a "AW="
                  environment string or if the configuration files
                  are in the current directory.
     
     The Gateway TSR also uses the -I and -P command line
     arguments, with the same requirements as listed above.
     
     
     9.  COMMUNICATIONS DRIVERS
     ==========================
     
     Telebit ACS
     -----------
     You will need PDWSINF.EXE (provided by Telebit) to register
     as a Telebit Asynchronous Communication Server (ACS) Host
     when using the Host DOS TSR.
     
     You will need the Windows driver WSINF.DLL (provided by
     Telebit) in order to use a Telebit ACS without the DOS host
     TSR.
     
     Interrupt 14 drivers
     --------------------
     INT 14 drivers work with Data Rates of up to 9600 bps.
     
     
     10. NETWORKS
     ============
     
     Novell NetWare
     --------------
     To be an IPX Host in Standard mode, Windows requires you to
     first load TBMI2.COM.  This file is provided with Windows
     version 3.1; you can obtain this file from your Microsoft
     representative.
     
     Some older versions of pcANYWHERE for DOS recommended
     remarking out VIPX.386 from the SYSTEM.INI file. If you have
     one of these versions installed, you should remove the remark
     from the VIPX.386 line prior to installing pcANYWHERE 1.0.
     
     Artisoft LANtastic
     ------------------
     It is recommended that users should avoid installing
     pcANYWHERE 1.0 on a LANtastic Server Node. You may experience
     difficulty in establishing connections in this configuration.
     
     In Windows Setup, the system setting for Network should be
     'Microsoft Network (or 100% compatible).'
     
     
     11. WORKSTATIONS
     ================
     
     Installation
     ------------
     In an effort to provide an efficient installation, pcANYWHERE
     administrative installs do not search network drives for a
     previously installed version of pcANYWHERE for WINDOWS.
     
     DOS TSR
     -------
     Care should be taken when setting up your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
     to load the DOS host TSR. If your host is set for a network
     connection, be sure to place the line to load the DOS TSR
     AFTER your 'login' procedure.
     
     
     12. REMOVING pcANYWHERE
     =======================
     If you want to remove pcANYWHERE files, it is highly
     recommended that you use the Remove pcANYWHERE icon to
     uninstall pcANYWHERE.
     
     Only the program files are removed by the uninstall program--
     you must remove the configuration files manually.
     
     13. SCRIPTS
     ===========
     
     Commands and Variables
     ----------------------
     $DATE
     The format of the date returned by this variable is MM/DD/YY.
     
     $DTR
     This environment variable is not supported. Reading $DTR will
     always return a value of 0.
     
     COPY
     The Copy command copies only individual files. Wildcards such
     as * and ? are not allowed. If wildcards are used, no files
     are copied.
     
     DEL
     The Delete command deletes only individual files. Wildcards
     such as * and ? are not allowed. If wildcards are used, no
     files are deleted.
     
     DESCRIPTION
     The Description command is not listed in the Script manual.
     Refer to the Tools Reference in the pcANYWHERE Editor for
     information.
     
     FIND FIRST and FIND NEXT
     These commands will search for the specified file within the
     current directory, not the entire drive.
     
     INTEGER
     This statement defines a variable as an integer (a numeric
     value without a decimal portion).
     
     Example:
          INTEGER A
     (Defines A as a integer variable.)
     
     SET FILE ATTR
     This command sets the attributes of a file.  The integer
     value is constructed by adding the values of the desired
     attributes. For example, a new attribute value of 7 sets a
     file as read-only, hidden, and system. A value of 0 will
     clear all attributes from the file.
     
     The file attributes are set as follows:
     
     Attribute         Value
     ---------         -----
     Read-only          1
     Hidden             2
     System file        4
     Volume label       8
     Subdirectory       16
     Archive bit        32
     
     Example:
          SET FILE ATTR "C:\DATA.FIL" 1
     (Sets data.fil to a read-only file.)
     
     STRING
     This statement defines a variable which will hold a quantity
     of alphanumeric characters. The length of the string is
     defined using square brackets ([ ]).
     
     Example:
          STRING A[50]
     (Defines A as a string variable which can hold up to 50
     alphanumeric characters.)
