                    - WinShell 2.5 Readme File -

--------
Overview
--------
WinShell  is  a multi-purpose  shell used to easily accomplish many
common  file  management  tasks.   Through  the  use  of   external
programs  WinShell  handles  uuencoding  and uudecoding, as well as
many  PGP  actions.  Internally,  WinShell can zip, unzip, show the
contents  of  archives,  and even view files contained in archives.
For maximum flexibility,  WinShell  allows  the user to define four
menu items and the action that should occur when they are selected.

Changes from version 2.4:

Fixed a bug in the zip viewer.
Fixed a bug in the error handler for the user defined menu items.
Added 2 popup menus to the selected files list box.
Added an unzip prompt to allow a new 'extract to' path.
The destination path shown in the zip prompt is no longer truncated.
The source & destination directory boxes no longer lose focus after 
a keypress.

Full operation requires the following external files: (not required)

Uuencode & Uudecode 95 (v4.0)
PGP 2.6.2 or PGP 2.6.2i

----------
Installing
----------

All changes made to your system will be logged to

Using PGP With WinShell
-----------------------
I have  learned that  WinShell is incompatible with some versions
of PGP.   This version is fully compatible with PGP 2.6.2 and PGP
2.6.2i. In a future version of WinShell I will try to add support
for the European PGP versions.

About WinShell
--------------
WinShell is distributed as freeware. It was written in Visual
Basic,  so it requires vbrun300.dll.  I wrote it for the sole 
purpose of putting all the  programs that I use alot together 
in a more usable manner via a GUI.
