                        WELCOME TO BACKUPS-ON-THE-FLY
                        -----------------------------

        The 'Backups-on-the-Fly' software is now installed successfully,
        and the associated Programs have been placed in the Directory,
        C:\myzips.


        You may place this Directory in the DOS Path, especially if you
        wish to run go.bat (for making and retrieving Backups), or 
        Getpilot.bat (Read about the AUTOPILOT below) from any Directory.

        Also, please make sure to read the README.1st file in its entirety.
        This will introduce you to innovative features (copyright,1995) 
        such as, AutoPilot, Datestamping, Special Extension Backups etc. 
	described below.

	AutoPilot:
	----------
	This is a simple, elegant and the most productive feature 
	NOT availanle in any other so-called' Backup/Retrieval oftware. 

	Every time you exit your Windows session, AUTOPILOT will 

	WITHOUT A SINGLE MOUSECLICK or A KEYSTROKE, 

        	1. Locate the files you just created, modified, or updated 
		   in your windows session, (or all previous DOS sessions) 
		and, 

		2. UPDATE the appropriate archived 'ZIP' file or files! 
	
	
	Folow the simple step by step procedure below for setting up
	
	 AUTOPILOT!

	    1. Using any ASCII text editor prepare a list of all directories 
          	containing files you often modify or create or process.

		(Entries should be one per line and contain the First-level 
		Paths only e. g. C:\Lotus, D:\word etc. Do NOT worry about 
		subdirectories; they will be handled automatically. The last 
		line MUST BE the characters "END" (all caps, NO QUOTES)). 
	    2. Give the File (list) a name such as ^Mylist. The first 
		character MUST be "^".
	    3. Copy it to the directory  C:\myzips and switch to that 
		Directory.	
	    4. Type GETPILOT and press ENTER. Follow simple prompts and it
		will create a file PILOT.BAT. 
		
	AUTOPILOT IS ON! Now, everytime you start a windows session by typing
	"Pilot" and pressing ENTER, the AUTOPILOT WILL DO ITS JOB! You may 
	never have to make Backups manually again!

	REMEMBER, you can retrieve these backups for the ENTIRE list, or 
	the INDIVIDUAL directories ANYTIME. by running GO.BAT, from DOS or 	
	Windows File Manager!	

	Date-stamping:
	--------------
	
	Invaluable Protection (which no other Backuop software can or 
	will ever offer!), from overwriting (by the succeeding Backups) 
	for any INDIVIDUAL Directory Backup, AT THE USER'S DISCRETION! 
        (Please Read the Readme.1st file).

        Special Backups (and Retrievals) of Files with Specified 
        File Extensions:
	-------------------------------------------------------------

	How many times have you wished you had all the Windows 
        files, such as *.ini or *.pif or *.dll and so on, in ONE 
        place to deal with and process WITHOUT disturbing the 
        disgustingly unstable Windows setup and operations? Well, 
        now you can! (Readme.1st file explains).

	There are MANY MORE features such as simple, intuitive, 
	RECOVERY of one or more damaged, corrupted or even 
        accidentally deleted files, described in the Readme.1st 
        file.

        No more fancy screens or menus to learn, no messy tapes or 
        clumsy floppies to handle! Your Backups are literally at your 
        fingertips, ready to be made and accessed at a moments notice, 
	IF YOU NEED THEM and WHEN YOU NEED THEM1

        No Installation, Simple Operation:
	----------------------------------
	After reading the Readme.1st file (with Windows Notepad or 
        any simple DOS ASCII text vieweer), just 
		1. switch to the c:\Myzips Directory, 
		2. type 'GO' at the DOS command line and 
        Press Enter. That's it!!!

	If you so wish, you can run go.bat through the File Manager,
	or through Program Manager after creating an icon for it.

	If you have any comments or feedback please drop an Email line
