INTRODUCTION
------------

Click Comm is an interactive communications package. It provides the
user with many ways of operating via telecommunications. The main
idea behind Click Comm was to improve on the already existing packages
out there. This was taken into consideration during the initial
stages and therefore, you will find there is more flexibility with
Click Comm than other packages out there.

HINT: To see a good example of the flexibility of Click Comm, try
clicking your mouse on things while On-Line and moving it
around.

Please read all of the *.HLP files, press F1, or click on HELP
whenever you have a question. All the commands are available from
within Click Comm.

You may use Click Comm for a period of 1 month before deciding upon
registering. After 1 month of use, (starting from the first day you
used Click Comm), you have not registered this software, you must
stop using Click Comm.

Please excuse the brief documentation on this package. A proper set
of documentation will follow in later versions.

Tagging and Dialing of Entries

If you wish to Dial more than one entry, simply tag each of the
entries you wish to dial and hit enter, Click on dial, or Double
Click on the last entry you wish tagged. The system will then
cycle through the entries you have selected.

If you wish only to dial one number just place the higlight bar
on the entry desired and press enter. The system will then cycle
through this number until you either connect or abort the
operation.

Please Note: When you tag entries the system only dials the tagged
items. It does not dial the highlighted entry unless
it is also tagged.

Multiple Dialing will present you with a dialing Box. This allows
you multiple functions as well. For further information on the
dialing box, enter into the dialing box and press F1.
