Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please make sure you have downloaded both the Base package and the compiler specific package.

TGlobe is now supplied as a series of packages. Make sure that you have the correct package
for your version of Delphi, then use the Component|Install Packages menu to add TGlobe to 
the IDE.

If you are installing into C++Builder you will need to create a new package and add the 
Globe.pas and TGLayerDS.pas files to the package. 

TGlobe uses the dsgnintf.pas unit to provide some design time property editors. This unit is 
part of delphi, if you are using Delphi 5 it can be found in the $(DELPHI)\source\toolsapi 
directory so all you need to do is add this directory to your project.


Please let me know of any problems that you may come across when using this package.
