	This file has been included for those of you just
getting started with PGP.  This file shows you how to setup PGP
in DOS and in OS/2.  If you read you the instructions, and don't
skip over anything you won't have any problems setting up PGP.


---------------------------------------------------------------
	DOS SETUP
---------------------------------------------------------------


 [1]  Create a directory called PGP.
 [2]  Uncompress your PGP files to this directory.
 [3]  Load your AUTOEXEC.BAT into your favorite text editor.
 [4]  Add this line   "SET PGPPATH=C:\PGP"   to your AUTOEXEC.BAT
 [5]  Add "C:\PGP"  to the end of your path statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT
 EXAMPLE:
 (Original path statement) PATH C:\;C:\DOS;C:\WINDOWS;C:\BLUEWAVE;C:\UTIL
 (New path statement) PATH C:\;C:\DOS;C:\WINDOWS;C:\BLUEWAVE;C:\UTIL;C:\PGP

*NOTE: For steps [4] and [5] If you have put PGP into a different directory
       substitute "C:\PGP" for the directory the PGP files are in.

 [6]  Add this line  "SET TZ=(Put your time zone here)"  to your AUTOEXEC.BAT

    TIME ZONES  :
  Pacific time : PST8PDT
  Mountain time: MST7MDT
  Arizona      : MST7
  Central time : CST6CDT
  Eastern time : EST5EDT
  London       : GMT0BST
  Amsterdam    : MET-1DST
  Moscow       : MSK-3MSD
  Aukland      : NZT-13

 EXAMPLE:
  If you live in the Central time zone you would add the following line to
  your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

  SET TZ=CST6CDT

 [7]  Reboot your computer to make these changes take effect.
 [8]  Goto to your PGP directory and type the following line
      PGP -kg this will start the process of generating your own secret and
      public keys.
      You will be asked to choose the size of your key.

        KEY SIZE
     1) 512 bits- Fast but not as secure
     2) 768 bits- Medium Speed more secure
     3) 1024 bits-Slow, highest security
     Choose one of these keys depending on the security you wish.
     The 1024 bit key causes about a 2 to 3 second delay on a 386/33mhz
     computer when Decrypting a message.
 [9]  Now you need to enter a user ID.  This should be your name, optionally
      adding your e-mail address to the end in angle brackets.
      EXAMPLE: Carl Forester <1:366/515>
 [10] Now you need to enter your pass phrase.  This should be a short and
      easy to remember sentence.
 [11] Then you will be asked to type in some random letters.
 [12] Now you are ready to start using PGP.

*NOTE: It is recommended that you read the documentation that came with PGP.
       But this short setup will get you started.

*NOTE:Typing PGP -h will bring up a list of PGP commands with a short
      description

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    OS/2 SETUP
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


 [1]  Create a directory called PGP.
 [2]  Uncompress your PGP files to this directory.
 [3]  Load your CONFIG.SYS into your favorite text editor.
 [4]  Add this line   "SET PGPPATH=C:\PGP\"  to your CONFIG.SYS
 [5]  Add "C:\PGP"  to the end of your path statement in your CONFIG.SYS
 EXAMPLE:
 (Original path statement)SET PATH=C:\;C:\OS2;C:\OS2\APPS;C:\BLUEWAVE
 (New path statement)SET PATH=C:\;C:\OS2;C:\OS2\APPS;C:\BLUEWAVE;C:\PGP

*NOTE: For steps [4] and [5] If you have put PGP into a different directory
       substitute "C:\PGP" for the directory the PGP files are in.

*NOTE: In step [4] the last backslash must be included.
 [6]  Add this line  "SET TZ=(Put your time zone here)"  to your CONFIG.SYS

    TIME ZONES  :
  Pacific time : PST8PDT
  Mountain time: MST7MDT
  Arizona      : MST7
  Central time : CST6CDT
  Eastern time : EST5EDT
  London       : GMT0BST
  Amsterdam    : MET-1DST
  Moscow       : MSK-3MSD
  Aukland      : NZT-13

 EXAMPLE:
  If you live in the Central time zone you would add the following line to
  your CONFIG.SYS file.

  SET TZ=CST6CDT

 [7]  Reboot your computer to make these changes take  effect
 [8]  Goto to your PGP directory and type the following line
      PGP32 -kg this will start the process of generating your own secret
      and public keys.
      You will be asked to choose the size of your key.

        KEY SIZE
     1) 512 bits- Fast but not as secure
     2) 768 bits- Medium Speed more secure
     3) 1024 bits-Slow, highest security
