  f.i. type 
  Install X:\WC_CD_13
  
  Have a look at the warpcenter during installation!

  DON'T CREATE THE DIR BEFORE RUN THE INSTALL-SCRIPT,
  THE SCRIPT SELF WILL MAKE THE DIRECTORY.

5 You can delete the unpacked-files and close os2-console.
6 Enjoy.

If you run install again, another cd-player-tray will be
placed in the warpcenter.


B. USAGE

The install-script adds a tray "CD-PLAYER" to WarpCenter. 
Switch to this tray and push the power-button. This
starts a server-demon, that communicates with your CD-ROM.
Now You can use the other buttons. 

To kill the server push the STOP -  button.

Alternativ you can use the prgramobjects in your intallpath
folder.

Problems: 
Do you use other cdrom like audio01? See section C.
For other problems contact us.

C. CUSTOMIZING

You can modify the *.ico - Files before you install.
Don't change the filenames.
You can edit all rexx-scripts, if you know what you do.
For Details contact me via EMAIL.

For use other cdroms as cdaidio01:
read and edit the power.cmd script.

For other introplay - length
read and edit the power.cmd script.

This should be easy.


D. DEINSTALLATION

Delete all files in the path your proginstallpath, delete the 
tray called "CD-Player" from the warpcenter with the 
standard-function in warpcenter  - ready.
This scripts don't write to ini-files or copy files to 
other drirectories as the proginstallpath.


E. NOTES

I hope that more developer of os2-software distribute their software
freely and publishing their source-code, thats one reason for the
success of linux. 

Sorry for bad english.

Thanx for Smashing Pumkins for best test-cd's to coding player-apps. 
Thanx for all testers and users.

New in version V1.3:

- now runs with objectrexx, too
- bugfixes, better queue-handling, code optimized
- new functions: eject, introplay, adds volume - button to warpcenter
- display status in tasklist:
  current track, number of all tracks, played tracktime and left tracktime
- easy change of cdaudio - device and length of introplaying



There is no way to add a display to the warpcenter without strong modifications
of the warpcenter-files. We want do this. We use only supported rexx-functions.
Don't worry.
