Acid-Base Calculator 1.13
Copyright (C) 1995 Aosheng Wang. All right reserved.

Purpose
=======

   Acid/Base Calculator allows you to calculate the pH value and speciation
   of an aqueous acid/base solution; to apply activity corrections to the
   acid/base calculations; to plot and manipulate various speciation
   diagrams, titration curves, buffer capacity plots, and bound-proton
   diagrams; and to determine the end-point(s) of an acid/base titration
   curves. A special Bound-Proton Method is used for the numerical acid/base
   calculations and exact results are obtained within computer iteration
   errors.

Hardware and software requirements
==================================

   It requires an 386 or better PC computer with Windows 3.1 or better
   system to run.

Installation
============

   1.  Create a temporary directory on your hard disk, i.e.,

         md temp

   2.  Unzip acidb113.zip to that directory, i.e.,

        cd temp
        pkunzip a:acidb113.zip

   3.  Run setup.exe, i.e.,

        setup
