ViDir(tm)/ViRes(tm) File Monitoring System Version 1.02 Read-Me First File Use and installation from CD-ROM How to install when the Monitoring System's files are in a subdirectory Copyright (c) 1994 Vahnzinn(tm) international All rights reserved Last updated: March, 1994 You need to read this file only if the ViDir/ViRes File Monitoring System files are on a CD-ROM or if the files are contained in a subdirectory. The ViDir/ViRes File Monitoring System can be successfully executed from a read-only medium, like a CD-ROM. There are some limitations, as noted at the end. Installation from CD-ROM or Subdirectory ---------------------------------------- To install the ViDir/ViRes File Monitoring System when the Monitoring System's files are in a subdirectory, as they may be on a CD-ROM, follow these instructions. Copy all of the ViDir/ViRes File Monitoring System files to the root directory of a diskette (example: "COPY g:\vidir102\*.* a:\"). When complete, type "a:" and ENTER, where "a" is your floppy diskette letter, then "ViInstal" and ENTER. Then, follow the installation program's directions. If you need help, read the ViRead.Me file for "Quick Installation" instructions. Or read the ViDir.HLP file, which is the user manual and help file, for complete installation instructions. CD-ROM Limitations ------------------ When you execute the ViDir/ViRes File Monitoring System directly from a read-only medium, like a CD-ROM, some features will not operate successfully: specifically, the ones that attempt to write to the default directory on the disk from which the ViDir program is executed. These include: * Create Copy-Used BAT file * Create Copy-Unused BAT file * Create Delete-Unused BAT file * Save to disk in-memory directory * Load in-memory directory from disk In addition, you will not be able to save your configuration options when you terminate the ViDir program.
