                          About this release
                          ==================
   After  weeks of struggle, I have finally managed to produce a Zoom!
revision which outputs `sane' archive files.  My tests have shown that
the  byte-run-compressor  was one of the main reasons for the constant
crashes  of  previous  Zoom!   releases  (and  the creation of corrupt
archive  files).   I  also  fixed  the  stack  usage which has heavily
decreased  at  the  expense  of program length.  The pop-up requesters
have been optimized a bit as well, causing them to perform much faster
now.

                                  -

   This  release is being distributed in the form of a self-extracting
archive  file.  To obtain the distribution files, enter the Shell/CLI,
type  `ZOOM.EXE' and press return, the following files will be created
in the current directory (it may take quite a while):

                    Release Date: 11-May-91, 10:47

         Zoom           (CRC = $92C4D494, Size = 61300 Bytes)
         Zoom.info
         ZoomCheck      (CRC = $63661B0A, Size = 19116 Bytes)
         ZoomCheck.info
         CRC            (CRC = $4F5177B9, Size =  4104 Bytes)

         Zoom.doc       (Size = 30304 Bytes)

   Use  the CRC utility to verify if the `ZOOM.EXE' file is in correct
state  (enter `CRC ZOOM.EXE' and press return).  The WRAP checksums of
all executable files should be zero.

                    Release Date: 11-May-91, 11:15

      ZOOM.EXE (CRC = $AB9F421F, WRAP nonzero, Size 59308 Bytes)

   If  the  checksums  do  not match the given sample, the archive has
been accidentally corrupted or deliberately modified!
   If  you  don't  trust the checksums, send me a letter or electronic
mail (adresses listed below) and ask for the `factory checksums':
