Alarm Clock Version 2.12
(c) John Hudson, June 2000

A desk accessory for the Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT 4 
taskbar. Requires a 486 or better PC running Windows 95 or later 
and a minimum of 8MB RAM.

To install, place ALARMxxx.EXE (a self extracting archive) on a hard
disc with at least 2MB free. Double click on ALARM.EXE: the files will
extract themselves. Then run SETUP.EXE.

If you have a version entitled ALARMxxx.ZIP: use a suitable utility
(PKZip 2 compatible) to extract the files from their archive, then run
SETUP.EXE. 

If you are upgrading from an earlier version of the program, make sure
you exit the program completely before installation. That is, select 
"Exit" from its pop-up menu - not simply "Close window". Unless you do
this, the installation may fail and existing alarm files may be
corrupted. If you have an existing alarm data file and you want Alarm
Clock to preserve this, install the updated program in the same folder
as the original and the alarm file will be converted to the new format. 

I have responded to users' comments and made minor enhancements to the 
user interface. The user can now attach a different sound to each 
alarm, or run a program as well as showing an alert. Registered users
will have the extra benefit of a simple countdown timer. See the file 
versions.txt for full details. 

For complete details on all aspects of the program, see the help file
ALARMCLK.HLP in the archive.
