 Introduction
 

 Thank you for trying ZTreeWin!  You have now joined the ranks of
 power users that have taken charge of managing their PC file systems.

 ZTreeWin is a text-mode file/directory manager for all versions of Windows
 (95 - Vista), designed to be the successor to the DOS product XTreeGold(tm).
 ZTreeWin was engineered to overcome the 16-bit limitations of XTree, while
 retaining the same familiar and powerful interface and functionality.

 ZTreeWin provides the following familiar feature set:

  * Copy, Move, Delete, Rename, Time-stamp one or thousands of files in
    a single operation
  * Graft and Prune entire branches
  * Simultaneously log ALL files on ALL drives, allowing you to search
    for text or locate particular files
  * Compare branches, directories or single files down to the binary
    level to locate differences
  * Powerful internal file viewer with Hex editing ability

 ZTreeWin raises the bar by providing the following enhancements:

  * No 640K memory barrier...log unlimited disks & files!
  * Supports long file and directory names
  * Supports integration of any third-party editor and file viewers
  * Duplicate an entire branch to another location with ease
  * Create Shortcuts to selected files and directories
  * Display Windows Module information for selected files
  * Flexible support of external archiving utilities to allow the management
    of ARJ, CAB, LHA, JAR, RAR and ZIP archives, to name a few

 Note that there is NO internal editor.  Instead, ZTreeWin comes preconfigured
 to use EDIT.COM, but can be easily changed to load any editor of your choice.
 My personal favorite is TSE Pro/32 from Semware Corp. (http://www.semware.com)

 ZTreeWin is continually undergoing improvement, based primarily upon
 feedback from users such as you.  To contribute to the future enhancement
 of the product, the most effective method is to join the ZTreeWin Forum at:
 http://www.ztw3.com/forum/forum.cgi

 Beware! ZTreeWin is a very powerful tool, and in the wrong hands, could be
 used to quickly remove important files from a disk forever!  However, the
 program is configured by default with confirmation prompts for safety.
 These should only be removed once you are comfortable with the functionality
 and fully aware of the consequences of such actions.

 ZTreeWin would not be where it is today without the help and support

 'rpVT' is the first of a new breed of 'assistant application' for use
 with ZTreeWin, adding many valuable functions, as well as a great text
 and graphics viewer.  Visit: http://www.ztwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=rpVT

 Paul's Graphic Viewer (PGV) is a graphics file viewing program which
 integrates very nicely with ZTreeWin.  The current version of PGV is v4.05.
