General Infomation for SBNews/NewsBot v6.1 (C) Scott M. Baker Purpose: SBNews downloads and decodes news articles automatically. For further info, please see NEWSBOT.HTM or NEWSBOT.DOC. SBNews is available in two versions: 1) SBNEWSxx.ZIP ... 16-bit version, Windows 3.1, W4WG, etc 2) SBN32_xx.ZIP ... 32-bit version, Windows-95, Windows-NT 3) SBN32Zxx.ZIP ... 32-bit version without setup program Installation: Run the program SETUP.EXE. This is a standard InstallShield setup program and is a very common and user-friendly means of installing Windows software. It should be self-intuitive, and should setup everything for you. I will also make a version without a setup program available under the file name convention "SBN32Zxx.ZIP" (xx being the version number). You can use the version without the setup program if you'd like to copy and install the files manually. Documentation is included in two formats: 1) HTML format: NEWSBOT.HTM, REGISTER.HTM, etc HTML format (HyperText Markup Language) files may be loaded by your web browser, or various html utilities. The file is formatted much nicer in HTML than in the plain ascii format below. 2) Ascii format: NEWSBOT.DOC, REGISTER.DOC, etc A conversion of the HTML format files to plain ascii. If you don't have a program that understands html, you can use these files.
