     SLfile, File Management Utility Version 1.0 a for Windows 3.1
     Copyright (c) 1996 by Stan Leeson, All Rights Reserved

     Identify files by location, file name, size, modification date, and/or
     file contents.  Optionally perform actions on the selected files to
     list them, report the full file information, copy them, move them, or
     delete them.  This program is fully configurable to meet your file
     management needs.  It retains option settings from one session to the
     next.

     This is a shareware program. The shareware version may be freely
     distributed.  I have set the registration fee very low to encourage
     registration.  Registered users will receive upgrade information as
     new versions become available.  To register send $10.00 for the first
     copy to:

               Please include your E-mail address (if any) with the
               registration.

     Additional copies are only $8.00.  In return for registering, you
     will receive a registered copy.  It is identical in function to
     the shareware copy except that it may be a newer version and it
     will not have the Shareware Registration Reminder screen.



    Installing SLfile
    =================
    The installation instruction provided are generic.  They assume you that
    you have a basic working knowledge of the Windows user interface and file
    operations.
    1.  Create a new directory for SLfile or select an existing file
        for it.  You can use the DOS command MKDIR or the Window file
        menu option to create a directory.  In Windows95, you may use
        the "New" menu selection in the file explorer.
    2.  Copy the file(s) into the selected directory.  If the
        distribution was in a compressed format, there will be a single
        file.  Otherwise there will be multiple files.
    3.  If there was a single compressed file, uncompress it into the
        full set of files.  If it is a ZIP format file, you can use PKUNZIP
        or an equivalent utility for this purpose.
    4.  Make the program available in the Windows user interface.  For
        Windows 3.1, this will consist of selecting a program group and
        running the "New.." option from the File menu to add a program item
        to the group.  In Windows95, this will consist of the taskbar setup
        option to add a program.

    This completes the generic installation instructions.  See your Windows
    or DOS reference manuals for more details.



    Uninstalling SLfile
    ===================
    The uninstallation instruction provided are generic.  They assume you
    that you have a basic working knowledge of the Windows user interface
    and file operations.
    1.  Delete the SLfile.exe, SLfile.hlp, and SLfile.wri files from
        the directory selected for them during the installation.
    2.  Delete the SLfile.ini file from the Windows directory.  This
        will typically be C:\WINDOWS, but it may be different on your system.

    This completes the generic uninstallation instructions.  See your Windows
    or DOS reference manuals for more details.



    Documentation
    ==============
    SLfile provides user documentation in three forms.  Each of them provides
    essentially the same information.  This allows you to use the form that
    best suites your needs.  The document files are:
      1) SLfile.WRI - This is a Windows 3.1 Write document that includes
         formatting.  Load it into the Write applet in the Windows Accessories
         group or into the Windows95 WordPad accessory.  This form is best
         for printing.
      2) SLfile.TXT - This is a simple ASCI text format of the user manual.
         It is best suited for use with a text editor or for initial review
         of the manual.
      3) SLfile.HLP - This is a Windows Help system help file.  It is
         integrated into the SLfile program to be directly accessible from
         a menu selection.  This form is best suited to on-line use.
