                          1. GENERAL INFO

   10-Strike FTPrint is a program that allows you to print text files under
Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP in the printer's text mode.  When printing
text files under Windows, the printer usually operates in graphics mode.  For
dot-matrix and ink-jet printers, text mode printing is faster and more economical than
printing in graphics mode.
   SAVE TIME AND MONEY! If your printer is dot-matrix or ink-jet, and
your text doesn't contain complex formatting (source code, documentation,
logs, books, etc), print it with 10-Strike FTPrint.

                    4. COMMAND-LINE PARAMETERS

   Usage:
   ftprint.exe /option1 /option2 ... /optionN file_to_open.ext

   The possible options are:
   1) /print
   2) /printall
   3) /auto
   4) /readonly
   5) /quit
   6) /setup=your_setup.cfg

   NOTE: These commands are available only in the registered version.

   4.0. You can open a file at startup. Use the file name as a parameter.
   Example: 1) ftprint.exe file.txt
            2) ftprint.exe "C:\My files\file.txt"

   You can associate 10-Strike FTPrint with ".txt" files in Windows Explorer.

   4.1. You can print using the command line, too. The "Print..." dialog
appears immediately after running this command.
   Example: ftprint.exe /print "C:\My files\file.txt"

   4.2. When using the /printall option, 10-Strike FTPrint will print the file as
if you chose the "Print as 'Copy to prn'" menu command (F9 key).
   Example: ftprint.exe /printall "C:\My files\file.txt"

   4.3. Use the /auto option if you don't want any dialogs to appear.
This feature is recommended if your printer loads paper automatically or when you
use perforated paper.
   Example: ftprint.exe /auto /print "C:\My files\file.txt"

   4.4. /readonly turns on read-only mode (the same as "Read-only" button).

   Example: ftprint.exe /auto /quit /print "C:\My files\file.txt"

   4.6. You can choose multiple configuration files using the command line
with /setup option.
   Example: 1) ftprint.exe /setup=mysetup.cfg /print "C:\My files\file.txt"
            2) ftprint.exe /print /setup="C:\My files\mysetup.cfg" "file.txt"

   4.7. /hidereadonly does the same as /readonly but hides the "Read-only"
button so user can not cancel read-only mode.

   4.8. /hidesave hides "Save" button and menu item so user can not save
modified document.

   4.9. /hidesaveas hides "Save as..." menu item so user can not save
