Definition of Shareware
=======================

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.
If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are required to
register it (or purchase the licensed version as in the case of
GSS*EasyChart).

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and retail software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like retail
authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are
good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example,
some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may
copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's retail or
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you
can try before you buy. And because the overhead is lower, prices are lower
also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.

Installing GSS*EasyChart
========================

Before you can use GSS*EasyChart you have to run the setup program from 
Windows so it will work properly on your computer. You cannot just copy the 
files from the GSS*EasyChart package to your hard disk. The files of the 
package are packed in a special way to save space. The setup program unpacks 
those files and rebuilds them on your working disk.

Installation instructions:

   I. Start Windows.
   
  II. Place the GSS*EasyChart Disk in the Floppy Drive or unpack the
      file ECDISK.ZIP.
      
 III. Activate the Program Manager
 
  IV. Open the File Run Dialog Box
      To open the File Run Dialog Box, select "Run" from the Program
      Manager's File Menu.
      
   V. Enter the Command Line
 
      If you use the installation disk, type:
      
		      <LW>:SETUP
	  
      Where <LW> can be either your floppy drive "A" or "B".
     
      If you have unpacked the file ECDISK.ZIP in a directory, type
      
		      <HD>:\<PATH>\SETUP
 
      Where <HD> is the drive letter of your harddisk and <PATH> is the
      directory where you unpacked the file ECDISK.ZIP.
      
      Leave the "Run Minimized" box un-selected, and click the
      "OK" command button (or press "Enter").

  VI. Enter the Drive and Directory
      This is the location where you want your GSS*EasyChart files to
      be placed. It will suggest the drive and directory "C:\GSSEC".
 
 VII. The GSS*EasyChart Setup program will unpack the necessary files and 
      place them into your directory. The status of this operation will be 
      displayed during the work of the setup program.  
 
VIII. The setup program will notify you when the installation is
      complete.
