************** The Jester - A Joke Teller for windows. ******************
This program is released to the public domain - No Royalties or fees may
be charged. Any fee charged, even for disk duplication services, requires
the permission of the Author.

This is my first WINAPP. Jester.exe will display a joke from its text
file, JESTER.TXT, and you may press a key. You can tell a joke one of
two ways:

1) By clicking on the "Tell me a Joke" option on Jester's System Menu
2) By Double-Clicking on the Jester Icon.

That's it!

************************** About the Win.ini *************************
Jester makes two entries to your WIN.INI file.

The first is the drive and directory that JESTER.TXT is located in. For
this reason, run Jester.exe the very first time while you are in the same
directory that the JESTER.TXT file is in. After that, Jester will find
it's own file. If you move the file, manually delete the PATH line found
in the [Jester] Portion of the Win.ini file, and re-run Jester.

The second entry keeps track of the joke count. If you delete this number,
Jester will start at the first joke again. Jester Automatically re-cycles
to the first joke at the end of JESTER.TXT

*********************** About JESTER.TXT ******************************
You may add/edit, modify, delete the jokes in the Jester file all you
like, with the following caveats:

1) No Line may exceed 255 characters.
2) Any Joke (Or item) should be input on one continuous line. Jester
   (windows, actually) will format the line into a paragraph.
3) Do not leave empty lines in the file.
4) Terminate the last joke in the file with a carriage return.


Hope you like the Jester!
