INTRODUCTION

Version 3.91 is a maintenance release of PINE --a Program for Internet
News & Email.  The general release notes for Pine 3.91 are available
via the "R" command on the Main Menu.  This file contains information
that is particular to PC-Pine.  We assume that you are generally familiar
with Pine; if not, additional information resources include:

  o The builtin context-sensitive Help screens in Pine.
  o The comp.mail.pine newsgroup.
  o The anonymous FTP archives at ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine
  o The World-Wide-Web page at http://www.cac.washington.edu/pine

There are five versions of PC-Pine:

  o DOS: FTP Inc's PC-TCP
  o DOS: Novell's LAN Workplace for DOS
  o DOS: Sun's PC-NFS
  o DOS: WATTCP/Packet Driver
  o Windows: Winsock

The Winsock version is not a full Windows GUI application; it has the same
user interface as the Unix and DOS versions of Pine.

KNOWN BUGS

There are several bugs that we already know about:

  o The mouse cannot be used to select commands from the Main Menu,
    except via the key menu at the bottom of the screen, nor can you 
    directly select by mouse folders, addresses, or config options from 
    their respective screens.

  o Clicking on the "Ret Accept" field in the key menu does not select
    the command, instead it puts "R"s into the text input buffer.
    (Winsock version only?)

  o You cannot (yet) mount a Unix directory (via NFS or SMB) and successfully
    share the same .newsrc file between your Unix and PC versions of Pine. 

  o The Winsock version is preliminary; we know that there are a number
    of things that need to be done,  but your comments pro or con are
    most welcome.)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  

If you've made it this far, then you have already picked up a copy of
PC-Pine that is appropriate for your networking software and "unzipped"
the files in a directory (probably C:\Pine) on your PC's disk drive.  In
the case of PC-Pine for Winsock, assuming you have Winsock/TCP/IP
networking software already installed, you can now use the Windows file
manager to create a new program item, or just use the "Run" option in the
program manager to start out.  For the DOS versions, there are only a few
more things you have to do to get Pine rolling:

Setting up the Networking Software
----------------------------------
  
   We assume that your DOS networking software has been installed and
   configured for regular use.  If it has not, you must do that before
   using Pine. 

   There are some additional steps that must be taken by users of
   packet drivers, or older verisons of FTP, Inc.'s PC/TCP. Those steps
   are explained below.
