README

This is a general "welcome to the TDF_lib code" readme file.

I must confess - I am a typical programmer. I hate writing documentation and it is always the last thing I write. So guess what - I haven't finished it all yet. I have finished the most important doc though - TDF_LIB.HTM. It is the major library reference doc. But the programmer's guide and the release notes are currently in a state of flux. I will bulk email the newest releases to all library users until I get all the docs done.

Here is what you will currently find in the \tdf\docs directory.

README.HTM This file.
TDF_LIB.HTM This file contains the master on-line documentation for the library. Warning this file contains more than 1000 links so it takes a little while to load.
PRGGUIDE.HTM This is mostly the old DOS version of the programmer's guide. Even though it is for the DOS version it still does contain a lot of valuable information about the library. But the newest information about the specific Windows 32 bit version of the library can be found the release notes file.
REL_NOTE.HTM The release notes files. This file currently contains the readme files from the first 2 beta release versions. (Nothing was added for Beta # 3). The contents of this file are migrating to the programmer guide as I rewrite the programmer's guide. Once that is completed this file will be empty until the next release of the library (see the todo list file).
TODOLIST.HTM This file contains the "To Do" list for next release.
LICENSE.HTM The software license agreement from the install.
UNINSTALL.HTM This file contains the uninstall instructions.
