------A word about Shareware, and what you're getting------

  This version of Knowledge Vision is being distributed as SHAREWARE.

  Shareware distribution gives a user the chance to try software before 
  buying it.  If you try a Shareware program and continue to use it, you 
  must purchase a licensed copy.

  Shareware is really a distribution method, not a type of software.  
  It provides the ultimate money back guarantee: if you don't like, you
  don't pay for it.

  This copy of Knowledge Vision is labeled an "Evaluation Copy".  IT IS
  A FULLY FUNCTIONING VERSION OF THE LICENSED COPY YOU RECEIVE WHEN YOU
  PURCHASE IT, with the following exceptions: 

    you are limited to 600 documents in any project

    you may only create one project in addition to the distributed Tutor project

    while Knowledge Vision is capable of giving you many "Home Pages" 
    - graphical environments in which you store and navigate information - only
    one Home Page is provided.

  What you get when you purchase a licensed copy, you will receive:
    
    a version of Knowledge Vision without limitations as to how many projects
    you may have, or how many documents you may create in a single project

    more graphical environments - "rooms" - to store information in


  All information about how to get a licensed copy of Knowledge Vision is 
  provided in the help file.  A form is provided which you may fill out
  and mail in.  You can access it from the program's Help menu.
  You can pay by check, VISA, or MASTERCARD.

  THE LAST WORD ON ORDERING AND PRODUCT INFORMATION IS ALWAYS OUR INTERNET WEBSITE:

------Minimum Requirements------

  To run Knowledge Vision, you must have a machine capable of running
  Windows 3.1, Windows NT, or Windows 95.  If you machine is running one 
  of these operating systems, it can run Knowledge Vision.  There is only
  one additional requirement:

  You must have at least 256 color graphics capability!  65k colors is
  even better.  This is because of Knowledge Vision's rich visual graphics
  environment.  The product will not run if you can only display 16 colors.



------Installation Instructions------


To Install from Windows 3.1 or Windows NT:

  From the Program Manager, select "Run..." from the "File" Menu.
  
  If you know the directory that you UnZipped KV.ZIP - for example
  "c:\temp" , you may type in the program to run - for example
  "c:\temp\setup.exe".  Otherwise, you may click the Browse... button
  and look for the directory.  When you find it, double click the
  setup.exe entry.

  Click OK in the Run dialog box.

  The setup program will load and show you a Welcome dialog box.  Click
  Continue.
  
  Next a dialog box appears asking you for a directory to install
  Knowledge Vision in.  If you want a directory other than "c:\kv",
  enter it in the Path edit box.
  
  Click Continue.
  
  The setup program will unpack all Knowledge Vision files and place 
  them in the directory you chose.  If the directory did not exist,
  one will be created.  If it did exist, and had a previous copy of 
  the program, it will be updated, and your existing project files 
  left intact.
  
  When finished, Setup will create a program group called Knowledge
  Vision, and place icons for running the program and running the help
  file in it.
  
  
  The Setup Exit dialog box reminds you that you can get a "guided tour" 
  of Knowledge Vision when running the product by clicking on the book
  labeled "Knowledge Vision" that sits on the desktop.  IT IS A GOOD 
  IDEA TO TAKE THE TOUR; it was designed to quickly show you Knowledge
  Vision's features and get you up and running.
  
  You may run Knowledge Vision by clicking the Knowledge Vision icon in
  the Knowledge Vision program group.
