Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP

instructions displayed.

Uninstall - In the unlikely event that you want to uninstall
Readerware, click on the uninstall icon added to the start
menu.



Mac OS X
========

Installation - Readerware for Mac OS X uses the Apple
Installer and is distributed as a stuffit archive.  To
install double click on the file you downloaded.  This will
create the Apple installer file.  Double click on the
installer package and follow the instructions displayed.

Linux/Unix
==========

Installation - Readerware for Linux is distributed as a
compressed archive. To install simply decompress the file
you downloaded, rware.tar.gz:

    gunzip rware.tar.gz
    tar -xvf rware.tar

This will create a readerware directory in the current directory.

Uninstall - In the unlikely event that you want to uninstall
Readerware, simply delete the installation directory.



Other Platforms
===============

In theory Readerware will run on any platform that provides
a Java 2 VM. Current Java 2 capable platforms are:

    Windows (Win95/98/NT/2000/ME)
    Mac OS X
    Solaris
    Linux

If you have a Java 2 VM running on another platform, you
should try the Linux/Unix no frills distribution.  If the
gzip/tar packaging poses problems, please contact
support@readerware.com and we can work with you to provide a
solution.  Thank you.
