                IMPORTANT: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS!!

     To enjoy the reports in the archive INTB15WN.ZIP,
unarchive the ZIP file to a directory of your choice. IF YOU 
HAVE THE REGISTERED VERSION, COPY ALL FILES FROM THE THREE
DISKS TO A DIRECTORY OF CHOICE! These documents are designed 
to be viewed and printed with REPLICA, a state of the art 
document viewing and printing system for Windows that is 
included in this shareware archive. REPLICA eliminates the 
need to own any Windows word processor; and also preserves 
the formatting, design and graphics which were part of the 
original document. Understand that REPLICA is not a word 
processor: text is locked and you cannot edit or change anything 
although you can cut/copy and paste using the Windows clipboard 
and as well as print. 

     FIRST, unarchive INTB15WN.zip to a directory of choice.IF YOU 
HAVE THE REGISTERED VERSION, COPY ALL FILES TO A DIRECTORY OF 
CHOICE. A sensible name for such a directory would be \indtib. Then 
start Windows if you have not already done so. Open up the directory 
tree display and display the file list window for \timeline                      
     YOU MUST FIRST START REPLICA ITSELF WHICH IS EMBEDDED IN THE
FILE ITREADME.EXE. YOU MUST BEGIN WITH ITREADME.EXE AS REPLICA
IS NOT CONTAINED IN ANY OF THE OTHER FILES IN THIS ARCHIVE.
If you attempt to view .rpl files in any other text viewer or word
processsor they either will not open or you will view a great deal 
of code 'garbage' on screen. SIMPLY DOUBLE CLICK ON THE ICON FOR 
ITREADME.EXE IN THE FILE LISTING OF THE /INDTIB DIRECTORY DISPLAY. 
THAT IS ALL THERE IS TO IT!  
        REPLICA will start and display the file itreadme which is 
embedded in the file itreadme.exe. You may now view each of the 
documents that comprise THE GREAT GODDESS IN INDIA AND TIBET V1.5 
for Windows by opening each within REPLICA as you would any file from 
the File Menu. REMEMBER THAT EACH DOCUMENT HAS THE EXTENSION .RPL NOT 
.DOC. You may, of course, set up a program item within a group of 
your choice for itreadme.exe as you would for any executable. You can
print any range of pages, or an entire .rpl document, as you would with 
any Windows application by using Print Setup and Print in the usual 
manner. There is on-line Help on the menu bar of REPLICA if you lose your 
way. I strongly recommend that you take a few minutes and read the 
on-line help so that you can orient yourself for viewing, selecting text 
or graphics for cut and past clipboard operations, and printing. The
default viewing window in REPLICA is 100% which will provide terrific 
legibility but will require you to scroll in order to reach page margins. 
You might prefer the 75% view window but realize this choice will introduce
a screen artifact on many monitors in the form of narrow horizontal white 
lines (which do not interfere with the text). See installation instructions 
in itreadme.rpl. 

THE GREAT GODDESS IN INDIA AND TIBET

        There are six files in the shareware archive of THE GREAT GODDESS 
IN INDIA AND TIBET: readme.1st (ASCII-this file); itreadme.exe, 
itregist.rpl (order form), it15shw.rpl (shareware preview of the book)
and itgl15sh.rpl (35 page glossary). YOU MUST TART WITH ITREADME.EXE AS 
EXPLAINED ABOVE IN ORDER TO INSTALL THE REPLICA VIEWING SYSTEM. 
Iteadme.rpl will give you some general background about the book and 
introduce Reality Software. In the registered version of THE GREAT 
GODDESS IN INDIA AND TIBET V1.5 for Windows which is not archived, the 
file intb15.rpl is the complete 81 page book and itgl15.rpl is an 
illustrated glossary.

ABOUT REPLICA

	REPLICA does not preserve the original margins of most documents 
in that the right and left margins on the REPLICA viewing screen are 
usually wider than those of the original document when it is viewed with 
the word processor or spreadsheet program that created it. If you find 
the font size displayed by REPLICA to be smaller than you wish, check to 
see that your video mode is 640 x 480. Such a resolution will correct 
most readablity problems. Also consider the 75% view window.
        REPLICA iteslf is very machine intensive. I doubt it will  run on
a 286 and performance will be slow on a 386SX. REGISTERED USERS OF THIS 
PRODUCT PLEASE NOTE: THE PROCESSING DEMANDS UPON REPLICA TO LOAD AND 
DISPLAY THE COMPLETE 81 PAGE ILLUSTRATED BOOK ARE ENORMOUS. I DOUBT THAT 
SCREEN REDRAWS FOR THIS PRODUCT BE ACCEPTABLE ON A 386. FURTHERMORE, IN 
ORDER TO AVOID SERIOUS COLOR DISTORTION WHICH WILL MAKE READING VERY 
DIFFICULT, FOLLOW THESE SUGGESTIONS EVEN IF YOU OWN A HIGH END 486 OR A 
PENTIUM. CLOSE OUT WALLPAPER, SCREEN SAVERS AND ALL OTHER PROGRAMS IN 
ORDER TO MAXIMIZE AVAILABLE WINDOWS RESOURCES. PREFERABLY DO NOT RUN A 
THIRD PARTY SHELL SUCH AS THE NORTON DESKTOP FOR WINDOWS OR PC TOOLS FOR 
WINDOWS. DO NOT LOAD THE THE GREAT GODDESS IN INDIA A SECOND TIME WITHIN 
A SINGLE WINDOWS SESSION. BEFORE VIEWING, RESTART WINDOWS IN ORDER TO 
CLEAR THE BUFFERS. If shareware users view what seems to be an odd color 
palette that does not allow for easy reading, follow these same 
procedures: close out all unnecessary programs and restart Windows. 
Depending upon your work in Windows prior to using Replica, even small 
.rpl files may load with severe color distortion. Always closely monitor 
your available Windows resources when using resource intensive 
applications. 

	Understand that this is the first commercial release of REPLICA 
and the programming challenge was formidable!  If you don't believe it, 
ask your friendly neigborhood Windows programmer. Reflect that no cross 
application document viewing system was available for Windows until late 
fall '93 even though the need was apparent years ago. Play with the 
buttons on the tool bar, drop the View menu and notice the many choices 
there. ABOVE ALL, READ THE ON-LINE HELP! Enjoy the presentation and 
reflect that you now can explore state-of-the-art document viewing for 
Windows. I welcome any and all comments, criticisms and suggestions: 
see addresses on the registration form. Please note the large size of 
this shareware archive: .exe and .rpl files do not undergo much 
compression by PKZIP. Be certain you have adequate space on your drive 
to hold these files and for ease of use they should all be put in the 
same directory. The registered version of THE GREAT GODDESS IN INDIA AND
TIBET V1.5 for Windows is only available on three high density 3 1/2" 
disks.

	The shareware version of REPLICA is embedded within itreadme.exe 
and includes an extensive Help file. You may view an unlimited number 
of REPLICA documents (.rpl) but you can only create 5 (five) REPLICA 
document files of your own.  Registration of REPLICA is required if 
you wish to create an unlimited number of .rpl files from your
own documents.  See About ... on the Help menu. Reality Software does not 
sell REPLICA: you must contact Farallon Software directly. If you are 
interested in document publishing for Windows I highly recommend REPLICA.
