         Welcome at long last to the first release of the all new
         look Ezycom documentation. The documentation was delayed
         due to insufficient time for me to tidy up a few loose ends
         that still existed at the time of the release of the first
         public gamma test version of Ezycom 1.10.


         What to expect?

         As this is the first time everyone has seen this document,
         there are bound to be errors in it. All features present in
         the 1.10 gamma are described in full detail and for all
         intents and purposes, this document is complete until new
         features are implemented. There are only one or two minor
         pages missing from the introduction of the manual. This
         manual is also a textual back convert from a fully desktop
         published version that is used for the professionally
         printed manuals (available soon!) so there may be some
         formatting errors. It has also been converted to single
         sided gutter format (so you can bind it) although you will
         find that footers will alternate between left/right
         justifications still. The full print version is quite
         spectactular and it is strongly suggested that you look
         toward buying this in the future.

         There are in some areas of the manual, a couple of features
         described that may not be fully functional as yet or indeed
         features that appear not to exist. Do not worry about
         these, they will be available in a future gamma release and
         indeed in the full 1.10 release version.


         Printing Instructions

         As the filename's suggest, the two pieces of the
         documentation are in direct print dump format complete with
         bold facing and page formatting. You should use the DOS
         PRINT command or simular to print them. DO NOT load them
         into a word processor or any other program, the formatting
         will be destroyed. They are designed for printing on
         standard 66 line continuous paper (letter size). Simply
         dump each half to the printer and put the two together.


         Errors, Ommissions etc.

         Any problems you spot, be they spelling mistakes,
         grammatical errors, or even mistakes in option
         descriptions, please report them either directly to me via
         netmail or via the Ezycom support conference. Do not bother
         the author Peter Davies (leave him to program) with them
         since he is not the one who writes the manual and would
         only have to forward them to me anyway.


         Thankyou's

         Thanks to Peter for making such a great BBS package. It has
         been a pleasure writing the manual for it and he has been
         most helpful during the development process. A lot of time
         was saved during the writing process because he kept me
         well informed on features well before he had even
         implemented them in beta code.

         My biggest thankyou though goes to my very good friend
         Jason Bowe (The Time Gate BBS) who served as a proof reader
         and an idea person throughout the construction of the
         documentation. This year has been a little tough for Jason
         due to his large academic work load and his active personal
         life. Time for him to do anything related to BBSing has
         been very minimal yet he has still managed to put many
         hours hours into the documentation and helped keep me sane
         during the thick of the several months of full on writing
         that produced this end result. Thanks Jas!


         Enjoy everybody, till next time!
