To install WideOpen for Word 6, simply open WIDEOPEN.DOC and
follow the instructions there.  For ordering details on other
versions, please read ORDER.DOC.  

The shareware version of WideOpen updates Microsoft Word 6 to 
take advantage of many of the new features of Windows 95, such as 
long filenames, shortcuts, etc. It does this by by replacing the 
Word Open and Save dialogs with their Windows 95 common-dialog 
equivalents.  

Registered versions are available to support other applications; 
see the documentation for details.  

WideOpen uses actual Windows 95 long file names and common dialogs 
(as opposed to 4DOS style "descript.ion" files, for example) 
to ensure complete integration with the rest of the 
system.

Special requirements: Windows 95 and Word 6.

Changes: (Last release before Windows 95 ships!) Version 1.4 
ensures that the default SaveAs filename and format are identical 
to the actual long name and format of the document file, as well
as fixing several other bugs/inconsistencies in SaveAs.  It also 
contains German versions of the file format names for those using 
the German version of Word.

You may freely distribute the Word version of WideOpen in its
complete, unmodified form.  Please ask for permission before
distributing modified versions.
