xuen/Readme

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Installation
============

This installation is intended to
create a new copy of !Xuen on your
machine or update an old version.
Older versions of !Xuen were be
called !Start, and you can positively
identify an older !Xuen by looking
in the !Start info box and checking
that the author was Barny Short.

To install a fresh copy of !Xuen
on your computer, drag and drop
the !Xuen directory to wherever you
want to put it. Don't try and run from
a floppy disc as it may horribly
slow your desktop down.

To update your old copy of !Start or
!Xuen, rename your old !Start
directory to !Xuen if it has not already
been done so, drag and drop the new !Xuen
directory onto the old application so
that it overwrites it.
Your configuration files should stay intact.

Remember you will need to quit
!Start/!Xuen and rerun !Xuen
to use the new verson.
