Piano: Musician's utilities for Psion Revo ------------------------------------------ v3.0, Jan 10 2000 Shareware by Steve Litchfield This version will ONLY work on the Psion Revo. A separate version for the Series 5/5mx can be downloaded from my web site. Installation ------------ If you unzipped Piano OK, you should have ended up with 5 separate files. One will be this text file 8-) The other four are SIS files. (Experts) If you know what a .SIS file is, just double-click on each one in Windows Explorer or tap on it on the Revo and you'll be installed in no time. Note that if you've already installed any of the .sis upgrades, you don't need to do so again. The "piano.sis" is (obviously) the program itself and *must* be installed. (Beginners) If you *don't* know what a .SIS file is, this must be one of the very first third party applications you've ever installed. Don't worry, it's all quite painless: IF you have the 'older' PsiWin 2.01 or if you've downloaded Piano directly onto the Psion, the best way to proceed is to copy the "piano.sis" file into a suitable place on your Psion. If the file appears on the system screen with a question mark beside it, this just means you haven't yet upgraded your Psion to accept EPOC install files. Grab a copy of the special INSTEXE.EXE program from the same place as you obtained Piano and tap on it on your Psion. You should now see a nice little icon beside the "piano.sis" file and can tap on it to complete your installation. *Repeat* the process for "music.sis" and the other SIS files, if you haven't already done so, as these extra files contain the magic ingredients needed to make Piano work. IF you have PsiWin 2.1 or above, just double-click on the "piano.sis" file to launch EPOC Install on the PC itself and to complete the installation of Piano. If you haven't yet upgraded your Psion with the special OPXs, you'll need to double-click on "music.sis" and the other SIS upgrades as well. If all went well, you should now have a new "Piano" icon on your Extras bar. Expert troubleshooting ---------------------- [For the technically minded, after installation all Piano program files should exist in \system\apps\piano, apart from the systinfo.opx, sysram1.opx and music.opx OPL/32 extensions, which should each live in \system\opx ] Registration ------------ To register this software and to support future development, please send a cheque for £10 to: Steve Litchfield 22 Grays Crescent Woodley Reading RG5 3EN Great Britain or use your credit card on-line at http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/register.htm By registering, you'll also salve your guilty conscience(!) and reward me for the time and effort spent developing this program.
