                                !Install
                                ========

Purpose : To install the !JFShared directory into !System

Usage   : Run the application.
          Click Install.
          Click Close.
          Any errors are probably due to non-standard !System structure, or
          fiddling :-)

Why ?
=====
  The !JFShared directory contains resources for use with any of Justin
Fletcher's programs. These mainly include Basic libraries which are used in
many of his programs.
  This install program simply places these in the System folder and allows it
to boot correctly. It will alter your !System.!Boot file so that it the
JFShared directory is booted at the same time as the !System directory is.
Unlike the CC installation program, the key word here is 'alter' and it
should be quite obvious which lines have been added to the !System.!Boot
file.


The /what/ release ?
--------------------
The AOL release... Nothing actually to do with AOL, but I liked the way AOL
use massive pictures and Samples, so I wanted something special in one of my
programs. It's a joke, so don't take it too seriously - comments are still
gratefully received.

'wonderous' effects in this application. See the Samples directory for more

History
-------
Version 1.00 : ?? ??? ????
               First version written
               Very simple, with no real checking as to what it was doing -
               like a certain CC product :-( Just a BASIC program
               
Version 1.01 : ?? ??? ????
               Second version (released with JFShared 2.21)
               Now made to look like an application, and has a lovelly check
               routine to see if the library has already been installed.

Version 1.02 : 15 Apr 1996
               Third version (released with JFShared 2.26)
               Full application with checks for System directory, and
               JFShared being available, and System:!Boot file created if
               necessary.
               Should now cope with most eventualities, and notify the user
               of anything it can't handle.

Version 1.03 : 17 Apr 1996
               Bug fixes (released with JFShared 2.27)
               After claiming most strongly to Chris that it'll work with
               anything and then seeing it patently fail, the checking code
               has been improved slightly to cope with bugs in Longfiles.
               Grrr... /Now/ it should cope with most eventualities !

Version 1.04 : 20 Apr 1996
               Bug fixes (release with JFShared 2.28)
               Andrew Theirry (sp?) spotted a minor but irritating bug which
               stopped the program installing anything. Doh, aren't I stupid.
               How do you spell system ? It's not systeam, that's for sure.

Version 1.05 : 18 Aug 1996
               Bug fixes (release with JFShared 2.31)
               A couple of people spotted that RPC's have their System:!Boot
               file protected and so the program could not install.
               Now sets the access to WR/wr before changing it.

Version 1.06 : 16 Oct 1996
               Nothing new (release with JFShared 2.37)
               This is simply the AOL release. I've only seen the AOL software
               only, but it struck me that the talky bits could quite easily
               be incorporated into my this application.
