                (alpha)

       This product is shareware.

  Be sure to read the information about
  how to register it in the help file.


  This is an alpha version.  There are
  no warranties about its functionality.


What is it?
-----------
DisKing is a file manager replacement and a whole lot more.
It allows you to do everything from the keyboard as well as
view files in numerous formats without having to start an
application.  Of course, if you want to start an application,
you can do that too.


Alpha Woes
----------
This is an Alpha version.  There are bugs.  It is incomplete.

If you like it (or even if you don't), please fill out the
    registration form and return it, even if you don't register.
    I just want some feedback.


Installation
------------
1. Unpack the archive in the directory of your choice.

2. Create an icon in a Program Manager group for "disking.exe"
   OR start it from the command line ("start disking").


Archive Contents - (contents.txt)
---------------------------------
The contents.txt file is generated automatically and should
accurately reflect the files which are in this archive.  If
it does not then you should be suspicious of the quality of
this archive.  The length should be correct for the contents.txt
file itself, but the CRC value will be wrong, because it is
generated automatically.


Further Information
-------------------
All information and instructions can be found in the help file.
Activate the help file by pressing F1 anywhere in the program.
For keyboard hints press Alt-F1 and this will provide hints
    at the bottom of the screen.


Distribution
------------
You may freely distribute this archive as a whole, but never in pieces.
All files must be present and I strictly prohibit the distribution
of any single file on its own, especially without the attached
information about how to register DisKing.
You may charge a small fee if you are providing the media this archive
is on, but otherwise this arhive is to be distributed for free.


Registration
------------
It costs $25.00 to register.  Please print and use the form found
in the Help file.
