                       About DLLMerge                      

The '!DLLs' resource folder contains libraries which can be
shared by applications, thus saving memory.  When new or
updated libraries become available, you will need to add
these to your DLLs resource.  The DLLMerge application
helps you do this quickly and easily.

When new libraries are made available, they will be
supplied in a DLLs resource.  If you don't have one yet,
just copy the one supplied.  Otherwise, you'll need to
merge the new one with your current 'master' DLLs resource.

When you set up your master DLLs resource, you should put
it with your System resource, either on your hard disk or
the same floppy disk as the System resource.

To update your DLLs resource, double click on the DLLMerge
application.  A dialogue box (see figure 1) will appear
on the screen.

              Figure 1: The DLLMerge dialogue

The top area shows you the filenames of the DLLs resources,
as confirmation.  The bottom half of the dialogue box shows
a prompt guiding you through the merge procedure.

To actually perform the merge, proceed as follows:

* Drag your Master DLLs resource, from your hard disk or
  System floppy, to the dialogue box.  The full pathname of
  the resource appears in the display area labelled 'Master
  !DLLs' as confirmation.

* Drag the new DLLs resource, containing new and updated
  libraries you want to add to your Master resource, to the
  dialogue box.  The pathname of the resource appears in
  the display area labelled 'New !DLLs' as confirmation.

DLLMerge will then perform the merge.  If all went well, a
message 'DLLs folder updated successfully' is displayed,
and the new libraries are immediately available for use --
you do NOT have to reset your computer.

If an error occurred (e.g. 'Disc full' or 'Protected
disc'), it is reported in a dialogue box.  You should try
to rectify the problem and then restart the merge
procedure.
