===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================

This package contains QwkSlave (TM) by Stevenson Technical Services,
Inc. (STSI). This document contains only a brief description of the
package and its features, along with instructions for its installation.
Quite detailed documentation is included in the package, but it is in
archived form, and is more easily read after installation.

QwkSlave is a program designed to import QWK mail packets, storing each
message as a database record. Add, edit, delete, and print messages.
Search the entire database for key words or phrases. Sort the database
on any one of ten different fields. Cross referencing makes finding an
original message and its response as easy as a mouse-click! Make those
messages work for you! QwkSlave is ideal as a technical support
reference tool. Network support is included. Easy push-button
interface with mouse support. (286 or higher)

QwkSlave is a shareware program. You may use it for up to 2 weeks,
without charge (see QWKSLAVE.DOC for more details). If you like the
program, and wish to continue its use after this evaluation period, you
are required to pay for the program (see REGISTER.DOC for more details).
Any fee you may have paid to others (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to
obtain this evaluation version was a fee for their copying and
distribution services, rather than a payment for continued use of the
program.

===== Installation =====================================

The installation procedure for QwkSlave is quite simple. The package
includes a program, "INSTALL.EXE", which automates the entire process.
You will need about 1 megabyte of available disk space (initially) on
the hard drive on which you plan to install QwkSlave.

The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
QwkSlave.


INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES

To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.

1. Place QwkSlave distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the appropriate
diskette drive.

2. Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, type
the MS-DOS command, "a:install".

3. Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. You
will have a chance to approve installation before any changes are
actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The program will
ask you for a destination directory, and will copy the QwkSlave
files to that directory. If you received QwkSlave on two
diskettes, you will need to insert Disk 2 in the diskette drive
when asked to do so. If you so direct it, the installation
program will install executable programs and documentation in
other directories of your choice.


INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE

If you downloaded QwkSlave from a BBS (or received it in the form of
archive files from some other source), you will need to perform the
following steps.

1. Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this varies,
depending on the form in which you received the package. In all
likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means that you
already have the necessary tools and knowledge to perform this step.
If not, you should be able to obtain directions for this from the
same source from which you received the package.

2. Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program which you have extracted. For
example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted the
program files is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the MS-DOS
command, "c:\tempdir\install".

3. Follow the instructions presented by the installation program. You
will have a chance to approve installation before any changes are
actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The program will
ask you for a destination directory, and will copy the program files
to that directory. If you so direct it, the installation program
will install executable programs and documentation in other
directories of your choice.

When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed the program,
(C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.


YOU'RE READY TO GO

Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the documents
(filename extension "doc") which have been installed. In particular,
read at least the "Installation" section of the file QWKSLAVE.DOC. That
document will tell you how to invoke the program, and will give you
other information you need to properly evaluate QwkSlave. We hope you
enjoy the program.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
