 			  Welcome to John Allen's OnScreen/2 Release 2.50.
			 --------------------------------------------------

 This README file contains important information about OnScreen/2.

 Changes
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 General
 The os.ini file is now obselete, all settings are saved in the os.set file.


 Platform Specifics
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 IBM OS/2 2.x & Warp 3.0/4.0
 OnScreen/2  is  supported  on OS/2 versions 2.0, 2.1, 2.11 & Warp 3.0.  If you
 have installed the OS/2 .DLL based version and did not install the .DLL's to a
 directory already  specified  on  your  LIBPATH  you  will  need  to edit your
 config.sys file and add the directory you choose for the .DLL's to it.

 Microsoft Windows NT & Windows95
 OnScreen/2 is supported on Windows  NT  3.5/4.0  and  Windows 95.  If you have
 installed the Win32 .DLL based version and did not install  the  .DLL's  to  a
 directory  already  specified  on your PATH you will need to add the directory
 you choose for the .DLL's to it.

 PC-DOS
 Release 2.50 is not supported on DOS.

 Sharing
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Please do give copies of OnScreen/2 to your friends, local BBS's etc.   Please
 ensure  that  you pass them the original OnScreen/2 zipfile intact.

 Distribution format
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 As and from release 2.02, OnScreen/2 will no longer be distributed in one .zip
 file, instead each supported operating system will have  its  own  .zip  file.
 This  means  that  when you unzip a particular OnScreen/2 zipfile you will not
 get the entire directory structure as  listed  below, you will instead get the
 files directly under the ONSCREEN directory and one of the OS2, DOS  or  WIN32
 directories.

 The file naming convention used will be as follows:-

 Program Name   Version  Major_Minor Operating System    Status
 OS                      2    _00    O = OS/2            A = Alpha
 OS                      2    _00    W = Win32           G = Gamma
                                                         R = Release

 As  an  example of this the OS/2 2.02 version will be distributed in a zipfile
 called OS2_02OR.ZIP.

 Directory structure
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 OnScreen/2  will  unpack  into  a  directory  named  ONSCREEN  in  the current
 directory, the install.exe will be in the current directory.  The easiest  way
 to  install  OnScreen/2  is  to  unzip it to a floppy and then run a:\install.
 Remember to use the -d switch with PKUNZIP to create the directory structure.

 The directory structure is as follows
 .\install.exe                           OS/2, DOS or Win32 install program
