1 Why .1?
 Well, we _finally_ fixed the irritating save error. Now, 
 as long as you're a good user, no evil doule-quotes will
 appear in your saved files. We also added a gang screen
 (hint: look in the About... box), and created a link into
 Easy Out 1.1 (or 1.0, but 1.1 is superior). Finally, the
 options interface went up a notch.

2 Changes to the program
 .1 PaperPad 2.1 brings in abilities above and beyond
   Notepad's with this release.  With new features
   (Undo, Search), better organization (all the options
   grouped together), and better file support (up to
   64k files!), this program is certainly getting there!
 .2 Since creating the Help File  
   Due to size vs. speed vs. abilities, we had to remove the
   "replace" function mentioned in the Help file.  Also, there
   is no "help!" button in the Options dialog box.

3 Files Included
 The zip file "PPAD210.ZIP" should contain the following
 files: PPAD.EXE, PPAD.HLP, README.TXT, REGISTER.TXT, COMMDLG.DLL,
 CMDIALOG.VBX, THREED.VBX, TABPRO11.VBX and FILE_ID.DIZ.  
 PPAD.EXE is the program file, PPAD.HLP is the help file, 
 README.TXT is this file, REGISTER.TXT is the registration card
 to send in with registration.  FILE_ID.DIZ is for WWIV BBS'.
 COMMDLG.DLL, CMDIALOG.VBX, THREED.VBX, and TABPRO11.VBX all go
 into making a better interface for non-text typing things.

-------
4 File Locations
 PPAD.EXE can be wherever you want it to be (in
 \Windows, in Windows\SYSTEM, in \PPAD, etc.).  PPAD.HLP
 can likewise be wherever you like, but the program must
 know where.  COMMDLG.DLL, CMDIALOG.VBX, THREED.VBX, and
 TABPRO11.VBX must be in the Windows\SYSTEM directory or 
 the program will not run.  VBRUN300.DLL (not included) 
 must be in the Windows\SYSTEM directory. README.TXT can 
 go wherever, and so can  FILE_ID.DIZ.  We would request 
 that you keep it around.  REGISTER.TXT is the registration 
 file, so please see section 5.

5 PaperPad and the WIN.INI
 PaperPad makes a relatively minor change to the WIN.INI:
 it adds the section [XpresWare] if it doesn't already exist,
 and adds an entry to that (PadPath=).  In the [XpresWare] section,
 it uses the EOPATH= entry (from Easy Out). It also adds a section
 entitled [PaperPad], with the entries HelpPath=, SaveDFlt?=,
 TextBox=, Font=, and Size=.  Two things you should know:  all
 XpresWare programs write into the section [XpresWare], and also
 all XpresWare programs let the system know that it changed the
 WIN.INI and what it changed.  For more complete information,
 please see the file PPAD.HLP.

6 Registering
 You are given one month (30 days) of try-before-you-buy.  After
 that month, you have two options: register (read: purchase) PaperPad, 
 or delete it from your system.  To delete PaperPad is simple: just delete
 all the files listed in section 1.  To register, though, is more difficult.
 You need to send $15 (plus $2 for US mail or $11 for overnight Express mail)
 in the form of a check or money order, along with the filled out registration
 form (REGISTER.TXT) to XpresWare, 6 Channing Place, Cambridge, MA 02138.  After
 we receive your order and your form of money clears, we will send out WinFast
 to you.  If you register during the summer, please expect a one-to-two week
 extra period.

7 Dates and Current Times
 Since things are currently changing, the newer a file is, the truer.  Example:
 with the release of this program, we are no longer offering Airborne Express,
 UPS, DHL, or Federal Express, but continue to offer Express Mail from the USPS.
 Costs for the mail has chaged as well.
