Program History INTRODUCTION This program is an RMR Software 'badged' version of Serge Shestopalov's PsiZip program. It is a compression and file packaging tool for the Psion Series 5. It is compatible with PKZIP v2.04g (PKWARE) for MS-DOS, Windows, UNIX, OS/2, and VMS systems, and also ZIP 2.0.1 (Info-ZIP) for MS-DOS and Windows. It is the only program to provide effective and fast zip compression and decompression for EPOC32 machines. As it stands, this Shareware version is almost fully-working with only 2 or 3 disabled functions to encourage you to register if you wish to make use of them. FILE DETAILS The program consists of the following essential files: S5Zip.app - The main program file S5Zip.mbm - The icons used within the program S5Zip.aif - The icons used in the System screen S5Zip.rsc - The file which holds S5Zip's text resources Zipeng.dll - The 'Zip Engine' for S5Zip Zipview.dll - The data library which S5Zip uses to view .ZIP files And the following optional files which can be loaded as required: S5Zip.hlp - Optional Help File Readme.txt - "Get you started" instructions for new users Readme - The ReadMe file in S5 Word format The archive also contains the following Control file for use on the PC if you are using PSISETUP S5Zip.ctl (PSISETUP, a PC-based auto-installation program is available from our Home Page) INSTALLATION If you have already installed the program from PSISETUP then you can skip this section. However, do note that by default, PSISETUP installs all of the optional files. If you do not wish to use these files simply remove them manually. To install manually. 1. Create a folder called C:\System\Apps\S5Zip\ (Or D:\System\Apps\S5Zip\) (You may need to select 'Show 'System' folder' in the 'Preferences' menu first) 2. Copy 'S5Zip.app', 'S5Zip.aif', 'S5Zip.mbm', 'S5Zip.rsc', 'Zipeng.dll' and 'Zipview.dll' into that directory. 3. If you wish to load the optional help file, copy S5Zip.hlp into that directory as well. 4. Note that PSISETUP will load the ReadMe file into the C:\Documents\ folder. You may wish to do the same. RUNNING THE PROGRAM Start the program by selecting the 'Extras' from the Application bar and then 'S5Zip'. You can learn everything you need to about the program by playing with it and checking the effect of each MENU selection. We have not written any separate instructions, as we believe all the information you need is in the on-line Help file. so if you have any questions please read that first.. All comments and, of course, registrations, gratefully received. REGISTRATION If you wish to register the program, you can do so by post (snail-mail), or on-line using the SWREG facility on CompuServe, or on the WWW by using RegNet (credit cards). If you are using the postal service, please send a cheque (check) (US, UK Sterling or Eurocheques only) for £15 or US$25 or 50DM payable to 'RMR Software' (or the equivalent in 'real money' in your actual currency) to one of the following addresses: RMR Software c/o 6000 Natick Court Burke, VA 22015 USA RMR Software c/o 46 Mortimer Road Kempston Bedford MK42 8RE ENGLAND RMR Software c/o PSIOlogic Versand Taunusstrasse 4 D 63589 Linsengericht GERMANY Please note these are the addresses of our 'agents'. If you use these addresses, Registration codes will be sent out fairly quickly, but if you send a technical query, it will have to be redirected to the author, so might take a few weeks to reply. If you have access, we can be reached quickly on support@rmrsoft.com The quickest way to register, if you have access to CompuServe, is to use GO SWREG and use Registration ID - 16765. The notification normally reaches us in 24 hours and we can reply with the code quickly, again normally within 24 hrs. (Ignore the question about the disc size when you register, you do not need one) If you wish to register using a credit card you can register on the WWW through RegNet, the Registration Network. RegNet can be reached by e-mail: orders@swregnet.com or on the World Wide Web: http://www.swregnet.com or in the USA by calling 1-800-WWW2REG (1-800-999-2734) or the easiest way is by following the links from our WWW Home page at: http://www.rmrsoft.com/ This program has been allocated the REGNET Number: 1781 and this should be quoted. Again, the notification tends to get to us within 24 hours and we reply within another 24 hrs. (Note that paying by this method will involve an extra US$5 handling charge) In each case, we (or our agents) will then send you a personalised registration code to enter to remove the 'nag' screens. We will also ensure that this code remains forward compatible for future versions of the program so, unlike other programs, we will not be asking for a further fee for an upgrade on the Series 5.
