========================================
"One ship drives east and another drives west
With the selfsame winds that blow.
'Tis the set of sails and not the gales
Which tells us the WAY TO GO."

What is Way To Go?
------------------
    Way To Go! allows quick access to many America Online for Windows
features.  It allows you to quickly insert shorthand, macros, or sound
commands into WAOL, have a goto list with more than ten items, quickly locate
or send instant messages to your friends, and much more.  WTG!
also includes TimeWatch, a feature which will keep track of your time on AOL,
and hopefully help you to conserve money. 
    It is also *SHAREWARE*, a form of software distribution.  You have 21
days to evaluate it.  If you decide you like WTG! and want to keep using it
after the evaluation period, you must register 
it (the registration fee is $15/$20), or stop using it.  The registration
form is available as REGISTER.TXT, and is also included in the WTG! help
file.


Getting Started with Way To Go!
-------------------------------

Take the following steps to correctly install Way To Go!, THE button bar for
America Online for Windows:

1. If you don't have VBRUN200.DLL in your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory, copy it
there, as Way To Go! needs it to run.
2. Start Microsoft Windows version 3.1 or higher.
3. From Program Manager, select the File menu and choose Run.  If you have a
shell other than Program Manager, such as Norton Desktop, use the run command
for that shell.
4. Type the directory you unzipped Way To Go! to and WTGSETUP.  For
example: C:\WAOL\WTG\WTGSETUP
5. After running Way To Go! Setup, double click on the Way To Go! icon to
start it.  Have fun with it, and remember to register it if you use after the
21 day evaluation period.  At almost any time you need help, press F1 and Way
To Go!'s help file 
will be shown.

NOTE: Way To Go! Setup may not be able to a add a group to some
shells other than Program Manager. 

If you have any trouble installing Way To Go!, you may install it manually.
Add program items for all of the files included with WTG, except FILE_ID.DIZ
and DESC.SDI.  

If you wish to add other configuration files, follow the instructions below.

1. Copy WTG.INI or any other configuration file to the new 
filename you want.
2. Add a program item for that configuration file.  If 
you named your file JOLIE.WTG, the item would have the command 
line:
	C:\WAOL\WTG\WTG.EXE C:\WINDOWS\JOLIE.WTG

(Substitute C:\WAOL\WTG with your WTG directory and C:\WINDOWS 
with your Windows directory)

3. Double click on the new item and setup your new 
configuration file with whatever settings you want.

Program History
---------------

Version 1.00 - February 15th, 1993
  * First public release.

Version 1.01
  * Fixed setup bugs
  * Minor fixes
  * Added feature that exits WTG! when closing WAOL, and vice versa.
  * Added ability to insert characters such as carriage returns or function
keys into WAOL for shorthand and sound items.

Version 1.2
  * TimeWatch can now be easily configured for AOL's new pricing structure.
  * The clock color can be configured to predefined color selections.
  * WTG! saves what is being displayed on the clock (Current time, Time

  * TimeWatch can now display a seperate timer to track other things, such as
downloads.
  * Fixed bug where TimeWatch would sometimes determine your status (FREE or
PAY) incorrectly.
  * WTG! truncates text on the Shorthand menu when it is over 30 characters

This was added to fix several GPF problems and to make the size of the menu
smaller.

  * Due to some problems reported with adding program groups/items to shells
other than Program Manager, a notice is now displayed to warn you of possible
problems.
