The  copyright  to  CountBul  is  owned by Ian Templeton GM0JQE.  It is
freeware to users of WINPACK by Roger Barker G4IDE.  (WINPACK  is  NOT
freeware).

It  is  not  to  be  sold  or used for commercial purposes without the
express permission of Ian Templeton.

I make no claims for the suitability or ability of this software.

======================================================================

CountBul  is  a  program to display a count of the contents of the Winpack 
bulletin list showing Total, Unread, Read, Killed, Still To Download, Not Selected 
and the number of 7plus parts 

The following files should be in this archive
    COUNTBUL.TXT    This file.
    COUNTBUL.EXE    The main program.
    COUNTBUL.XTR    The "Extra's" file for Winpack V6.4 or above.
    COUNTBUL.ICO    The ICON file for Winpack V6.4 or above.


----------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION
============


Put COUNTBUL.EXE  in  the WINPACK directory or whichever directory you
use as the WINPACK root directory.

Put COUNTBUL.XTR in the WINPACK root directory along with COUNTBUL.EXE.

The COUNTBUL.XTR file is only required if you are  using  WINPACK  V6.4
or above.

Put COUNTBUL.ICO in your WINPACK\ICONS directory.  Again, this is only
required if you are using WINPACK V6.4 or above.

Restart Winpack.

If  you  are using V6.4 or above you should now have a new icon on the
button bar.  This will start COUNTBUL.

If you are using a version of WINPACK older than V6.4  then  you  will
need  to make a short cut to WINPACK\COUNTBUL.EXE from your desktop or
a folder.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATION
=========

COUNTBUL is very simple.  Simply click on the button or, from the Winpack
menu bar select File/Bulletin Counter. A window will open showing the status 
counts of your current bulletin list.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
EXIT THE PROGRAM
================
Click on the Quit button
----------------------------------------------------------------------

PULL DOWN MENU's
================
At  the top of the CountBul screen you will see two pull down menu's.
They are:   EXIT   ABOUT   

Pull down menu's can be activated by placing  the  mouse  cursor  over
them  and  left  clicking  the  mouse, or holding down the ALT key and
pressing the letter that is underlined in the  menu  item.   You  will
then either get another menu list or something will happen.

EXIT
====
Clicking this will EXIT the program.  You can also press the  ESC  key
or use the on screen QUIT button.
