Welcome, and thank you for trying this Trial Version of Eluent Tools,
a collection of powerful file and folder tools for 32-bit Windows
operating systems. 

1. Installation

To install Eluent Tools, unzip all the files in this archive
to a temporary folder and run setup.exe, or use your Zip program's
Install feature, if it has one. Following installation, you can
delete the files you unzipped (if any).

During installation, Eluent Tools Setup will determine if you have
current versions of the three system files listed below:

   mfc42.dll (need 6.00.8267.0 or later)
   msvcrt.dll (need 6.00.8267.0 or later)
   comctl32.dll (need 4.71 or later)

Chances are, you won't need to install any of these updates,
but setup will let you know if you do and offer you the chance to
visit Eluent Software's web site, from which you can download mfc42.exe,
which updates mfc42.dll and msvcrt.dll, and visit Microsoft's web site
to download the Common Controls Update. You can visit Eluent's main
download page at:

2. After installing

Following installation, you can run the tools from their Start Menu
group and by selecting them from the Explorer context menu that
appears when you right-click files and folders in Explorer. If you
are a Visual C++ user and chose during setup to install Eluent Tools
under the Visual C++ Tools menu, you should find them there the next
time you run Visual C++. Command line, Visual C++, and FrontPage 2000
users should read the relevant sections under "Application Notes" in
Eluent Tools Help in order to get the most out of Eluent Tools in
those environments.

3. Trial Period

You have 30 days following installation to decide if Eluent Tools
is for you. After this trial period has expired, the programs will
still function, but you'll no longer be able to save Path Plans,
Mask Sets, or Replace Plans. Please see the Help for complete
