We hope you like what you see! This evaluation version of UniMaint 5.1 (UniSafe) features the main UniMaint display and will perform all non-destructive actions included in the full product. Thus, for example, it will go through the dialogs and processes of uninstalling an application, but will not actually uninstall the application. Likewise, it will allow you to 'edit' INI files, but will not write the changes to the hard drive. Online help is included to guide you through the various features and functions of UniMaint. If you have any problems with the installation or other use of the UniMaint evaluation version, please use the web site, www.filestar.com, for resolution and support. _________________________________________________________________ BASE FILES AND FILENAME CONVENTION UM51DEMO.EXE contains: U5199280.001 - Compressed distribution file SHSINST.EXE - SHS InstallStar installation program SHSINST.HLP - Installation program help file SHSINST.INF - Installation program information file INSTALL.TXT - This file. - U51 is major/minor version, 99280 is last 5 digits of level. _________________________________________________________________ DEMO INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. If you are installing from an Internet download, run the self-extracting zip file UM51DEMO.EXE. When completed you should have the files listed above in the current directory. 2. Open an OS/2 window in the directory where the install files are located. 3. You may start the install program with or without the compressed file as a parameter. The U5199280.001 file is the compressed file that contains all other files and installation definitions. (a) If you start the installation program with a command of 'SHSINST U5199280.001' you will bypass the Source Directory dialog. (b) If you start with 'SHSINST' the Source Directory dialog will appear. Press the browse button and double click the U5199280.001 file. This will complete the source path in the dialog. 3. Press the 'License' button (required to enable the Install button) and read the License. When finished with reading the licence, you may read the README.1ST file by pressing the 'Readme' button. 4. Press the 'Install' button to start the installation. A Target Directory dialog will appear. The Target Directory dialog entry field should be displaying a directory UNIMAINT on the boot drive. You may change the drive/directory manually or use the Browse button and select the target directory. It will be created during install if it does not exist. Press Ok to accept the target directory as entered and the extraction of files will begin. 5. You will be queried during the installation whether to let InstallStar modify the config.sys file or not. If you let InstallStar do it, it will add the directory to the config.sys libpath, path and help path statements. If you decline, you may do this later yourself with a text editor. It is recommended that you let InstallStar do the changes. Once modified, a reboot is necessary for the changes to take effect. However, most UniMaint functions should work without a reboot and you can simply wait until the next normal reboot. If some UniMaint function does not work as expected, you should reboot the computer before further use of the program. 6. Normal installation creates a Desktop folder named UniDemo. The UniDemo folder contains 6 additional folders plus the executable UniSafe. UniSafe is a safe, harmless UniMaint which has all the functions of UniMaint but cannot write to the INI files. 7. InstallStar online help is available by pressing the F1 key or the 'Help' pushbutton. _________________________________________________________________ UNIMAINT PRIVATE INI FILE You may force UniMaint or UniSafe to use a private UNIMAINT.INI file instead of the OS2.INI file for storage of program parameters. To do so, copy the UNIMAINT.BKI file in the UNIMAINT directory to UNIMAINT.INI. This will be an empty INI file. If UniMaint is run with this empty file, all UniMaint settings and path data will be set to default parameters. To re-commence using the OS2.INI file for storage, delete the UNIMAINT.INI file. _________________________________________________________________ UNINSTALLING THE UNIMAINT EVALUATION VERSION The installation program has an Uninstall option but it is non-functional in this version. To uninstall the evaluation version, delete the UniMaint (or whatever the directory is named) directory. Then delete the UniDemo desktop folder. If you had the install program add the UniMaint directory to the config.sys file, remove the path from the LIBPATH, PATH and HELP statements. There will be one or two Application entries (Uni Maintenance and possibly UniWatch) left in your OS2.INI file that you can only remove with an INI editor unless you have used a private INI file. _________________________________________________________________ INFOZIP UTILITIES InfoZIP has graciously allowed the inclusion of ZIP.EXE and UNZIP.EXE with the UniMaint product. These programs are provided at no cost to the user as a service. It is very likely that you already have these fine native OS/2 archiving utilities. InfoZIP products are widely available on the internet. For a list of InfoZIP sources, read the WHERE file. You will also find a link to the latest versions on www.filestar.com. The ZIP.DOC and UNZIP.DOC files are included to provide documentation for the InfoZIP products. Unimaint makes extensive use of the Zip and Unzip programs. It is recommended that you add the path to these programs to the config.sys path statement so that one copy of the files are available to all programs that use them.
