Install Notes for AscToHTM V3.3
===============================

The shareware version of AscToHTM is available with 
InstallSheild. 
 
This will install AscToHTM, and leave you with an uninstall
option reachable via "Start...Settings...Control Panel...
Add/remove programs".

Some people may experience problems with the installation. 

This file describes what the installation has done to your 
system so that you may manually uninstall AscToHTM should 
you need to.  It also describes alternative methods for 
installing AsctoHTM should the InstallSheild method be 
undesirable or fail.


DLLs
====

From version 3.2 onwards, AscToHTM no longer requires .DLLs
to be shipped because it is "statically linked".  This makes
the executable slightly larger, but makes the download much
smaller, and the files easier to manage.


Files
=====

Apart from various text files, this installation includes

	AscToHTM.exe	- program executable
	AscToHTM.hlp	- windows help file
	AscToHTM.cnt	- windows help contents file

Note, if you use the Find function in Help Windows will
create a .gid file for you.

There may also be a documentation set consisting of

	a2hdoco_**.html		- a set of (around 11) HTML pages
	policy_manual_**.html	- a set of (around 5) HTML pages
	tag_manual_**.html	- a set of (around 4) HTML pages
	a2hdoco%.jpg		- .jpg's used in the doco set

There may also be a documentation creation kit, consisting 
of text files and

	ia2hdoco.pol	- policy file used to create the 
                          doco using AscToHTM itself

In addition InstallShield itself will create

	_deisreg.isr
	_isreg32.dll
	DelsL1.isu

presumably for the Uninstall process.

These files will be copied to the directory you choose 
during installation, which will default to something like

	c:\Program Files\JafSoft\AscToHTM

Mind you, if you're reading this file then I guess you 
already know this :)

While the software is running on your machine other files
may be created (e.g. a .gid files, which is a Help index
file).  These files (and the folder) would need to be manually
deleted when you come to uninstall the software.


Registry settings
=================

As of version 2.0 AsctoHTM now uses the Registry to store 
user settings (such as the list of recently converted files).  
These settings can be found under the Registry key

	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\JafSoft\AscToHTM\...

If you wish to eradicate AscToHTM from your system, you 
may want to manually delete these keys using RegEdit, although
the InstallSheild uninstaller will do this for you.


Start Menu
==========

AscToHTM will add an Icon to your Start Menu.  You can 
move this by editing your taskbar settings 
"Start...Settings...Taskbar"


Uninstalling the software
=========================

To uninstall the software, simple use the uninstall command 
"Start...Settings...Control panel...add/remove programs...
AscToHTM".  This will delete all bar the folders and any files
that have been created since installation.
