******* UNARCHIVING INFORMATION ***********************************************
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You will need the LHarc archiver to unarchive this, but you know that by now
anyway. What you may not know is the correct way to unarchive this. If you
do not have three directories created, you have installed this program
incorrectly. Delete the programs created by LHarc from your disk and start
again, this time use the command line 'X /X+ FMAN221'. When you are prompted
if you wish to create a directory, select 'Y' to do so. If you have a German
version of LHarc, select 'J'.
You may get this program in the .ZIP format, in which case unarchive using the
switch that will create directories. The program STZIP10.PRG is recommended
for use here, it is by far and away the easiest decompression program around,
and has an excellent graphical front end.
This program uses a ramdrive, which is designated as drive C unfortunately
if you have a hard disk drive, you must disable it.
The files created should look like this :-
# AUTO \RUNNER.PRG 448
# NEWPOS \MANAGER.DAT 66
\MANAGER.FLS 88
# STARTUP \FIXTURE.DAT 1584
\PLAYERS.DAT 10459
\TEAMS.DAT 5791
ALTER.PRG 41933
FIXTURES.PRG 29074
MANAGER.PRG 25889
MATCH.PRG 71975
MENU.PRG 87888
READ.ME 4174
REGISTER.DOC 2496
RESET.PRG 62769
UPDATE.PRG 40997
ZZZEND.FOO 111
If any of these files differs in length, then you most probably have an
unofficial version, do not use it, it may be infected with a virus. Send
the disk back to me and I will send you a proper version.
When you have done this, you must reboot the machine to run the program in
the auto folder, then run the program MANAGER.PRG. You are now ready to roll.
Play and enjoy.
