				CD-Helper v1.0
			****************************


Programmed by Andrew Duke (ajd@soton.ac.uk) in Borland Delphi.

Visit the CD-Helper web pages at:  http://www.soton.ac.uk/~ajd/cdhelp/


Description:
------------
CD-Helper allows you to hand-pick indices of the content of CD-ROMs.

Each Index can contain applications, demos, games, multimedia or 
any type of file from any CD-ROM. You can make items into program 
manager/start menu items or run them from CD-Helper. In either 
case CD-Helper will prompt you for the correct CD-ROM, using 
both the drive label and your own description.

So now you can have all those apps, games and movies on your 
desktop but not on your harddisk.


Compatability:
--------------
Works with Windows 3.x and Windows 95.


Installing CD-Helper:
---------------------
1. Simply unzip all files in the cdhelp10.zip pkzip archive into a new 
directory, for example c:\cdhelp
2. Then make a program manager or start menu item for the executable 
file cdhelp.exe
3. On first running CD-Helper an index name is required, this could be 
"index1" or "movies" or "june-cd" or anything you like, but it must be 
no more than 8 characters.

Press F1 or a Help button at any time for context sensitve help.


Status:

CD-Helper is NOT free, it is a SHAREWARE program.  Shareware means that you 
may download and freely distribute the unregistered version, which may be used and 
evaluated for a period of 30 days.  After such time the program must be registered 
or deleted from your computer.  Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of 
software.  Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the 
product, you don't pay for it.  The shareware system and the continued availability 
of quality shareware products depend on your willingness to register and pay for 
the shareware you use. It's the registration fees you pay which allow authors to 
support and continue to develop quality products. Please show your support for 
shareware by registering those programs you actually use.

Registration details can be found in the help file and on the web page.
