Installation notes for RShow
----------------------------

Some of the installation scripts provided here require Commodore's
Installer utility.  Since this utility is copyright by Commodore, it is not
included in this distribution.

If you are using Workbench 2.1 or later, you will find the Installer on
your Workbench installation disk. Simply copy the program to your C:
directory, or anywhere in your shell command path.

If you for some reason do not own or have access to the Installer, I have
also provided a script for use with the IconX utility. This small utility
allows execution of shell scripts from Workbench, and is widely available
(every Fred Fish library disk has it).  If you don't have it handy, you can
also simply execute the installation script with C:Execute from a shell or
CLI window.

If you prefer to install RShow manually, copy the preferences editor
(RShowPrefs) to SYS:Prefs and the RShow program itself (RShow) to your
favourite commodity storage place.  If you want it run every time your
system is started, simply drop it in SYS:Wbstartup.

The RShow preferences editor requires guifront.library, so if you install
RShow by hand don't forget to copy this library as well. It is located in
the libs directory at the root level of this distribution.

The GUIFront layout engine includes an external preferences editor which
allows you to control the visual appearance of GUIFront applications. This
preferences editor is also included in the RShow distribution, but isn't
strictly necessary to install in order to use RShowPrefs.

If you want RShow and its preferences editor to be localized, you must also
copy the necessary catalog files to your LOCALE:Catalogs directory.

(No catalog files for the GUIFront preferences editor are included.  You
may obtain these from the full GUIFront distribution archive as found on
FTP sites and most popular BBS systems.)

All standard languages are not presently supported by RShow, but full
catalog source is included.  If you would like to see your own language
supported you might consider making a translation and sending it to me so I
can include it in future distributions.
