thewire version notes (beta)..


Windows users: IMPORTANT:	Run the+wire in Win98/ME compatability mode, 
							or else it may hang your system. What can I
							say; I wrote it when I had a mac!


IMPORTANT:  On all platforms except OS X:
------------------------------------------- 
You MUST run thewire at least once in the same folder as the two files
"wiredefault.plist" and "wirebuddies.plist". it will use these to create
default preference (application prefs) and buddylist (personal prefs)
files in your preferences folder. here..

Linux:		/home/<username>/.corz
Windows XP:	C:\Documents and Settings\<UserName>\Application Data\corz
Mac Classic: 	system volume:System Folder:Preferences:corz
Windows 9*:	C:\Windows\Application Data\corz   (probably)

Mac OS X:	~/Library/Preferences   (~/ is you home folder)
(the default prefs for OS X are hidden inside its "package")

It's an Apple plist, an xml-based, plain text file you can hack easily 
enough with a text editor.

Thanks for downloading thewire, the communication device for two
humans, you and someone else (I'm working on cute tag-lines, erm..).
Please test this release as fully as possible and report any problems
back to me:

betas@corz.org

Please DO read http://corz.org/osx/wire/todo.php for details of any
known issues and bugs, especially before having a good rant about a
known one.

See also "itstory.txt" or <http://corz.org/osx/wire/itstory.php> if you
want to know about all the new features, and maybe learn a few wee
tricks. Feel free to suggest improvements or anything else at the above
email address.

putting the word "wire" in the subject guarantees it reaches my inbox,
rather than the trash.
