INTRODUCTION
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Documentation to accompany Jump can be found in the Windows help file
JUMP.HLP.  To access this, select Help/Contents from the menu in Jump.

Jump is a simple drag-and-click game for Windows, based on a simple classic
marbles game.  Further description and instructions can be found in the
help file.

Jump was written by Steven Porter, and is entirely my own work.  Jump was
written using Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.5 from Borland.  Jump is an
ObjectWindows program.  Portions of this software package are copyright to
Borland International.

The software provided within this package is provided on an "as is" basis
and the author (Steven Porter) makes no warranty whatsoever regarding the
product and specifically disclaims any implied warranty or liability of
any kind.

All trademarks are acknowledged.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The complete package contained within the compressed file and is
distributed as shareware.  It is not free nor is it public domain.  The
copyright of the package is retained with the author (Steven Porter).  This
software can be evaluated for a limited period of 30 days.  Afterwhich, if
you intend to continue using it, you must register with the author (see the 
Windows help file for further information).  You, the user, may freely 
distribute the compressed file, but the individual files contained within 
must not be distributed separately.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The compressed file contains the following files:

JUMP.EXE     - Windows executable file
JUMP.TXT     - This text file
JUMP.HLP     - Windows help file
JUMP.INI     - Initialisation file
FILE_ID.DIZ  - Brief description for BBS
VENDOR.DOC   - Vendor documentation
VEND_ID.DIZ  - Vendor documentation (duplicate)
CTL3DV2.DLL  - Microsoft 3D Control DLL

All of the files should be located in one directory.

The first time you execute JUMP.EXE, the program will move CTL3DV2.DLL to
the windows/system directory.  This makes the installation process easy.
It is not necessary to copy the file yourself.  If however, you have
problems then check that CTL3DV2.DLL is located in the windows/system
directory, and - not - in the Jump directory.

Some users may already have a copy of CTL3DV2.DLL in their windows/system
directory, in which case, Jump will overwrite it automatically. This will
- not - cause any harm to your system because both files should be
identical.

card.  Please read the help file for full details (select Game/Help
