ABOUT EXPLORE2FS PORTABLE EDITION
================================
explore2fs Portable Edition allows you to run explore2fs from a removable drive whose letter changes as you move it to another computer.  explore2fs is a high quality, opensource peer-to-peer application based on the popular LimeWire Gnutella client.  The program can be entirely self-contained on the drive and then used on any Windows computer.


LICENSE
=======
This code is released under the GPL.  The full code is included with this package as explore2fsPE.nsi.


INSTALLATION / DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
==================================
By default, the program expects one of 4 directory structures:

-\ <--- Directory with explore2fsPE.exe
  +\explore2fs\
  +\settings\

OR

-\ <--- Directory with explore2fsPE.exe
  +\explore2fsPE\
    +\explore2fs\
    +\settings\

OR

-\ <--- Directory with explore2fsPE.exe
  +\PortableApps\
    +\explore2fsPE\
      +\explore2fs\
      +\settings\

OR

-\ <--- Directory with explore2fsPE.exe (PortableApps, for instance)
  +\Apps\
    +\explore2fsPE\
      +\explore2fs\
  +\Data\
    +\explore2fsPE\
      +\settings\

It can be used in other directory configurations by including the explore2fsPE.ini file in the same directory as explore2fsPE.exe and configuring it as details in the INI file section below.  The INI file may also be placed in a subdirectory of the directory containing explore2fsPE.exe called explore2fsPE or 2 directories deep in PortableApps\explore2fsPE or Data\explore2fsPE.  All paths in the INI should remain relative to the EXE and not the INI.


explore2fsPE.INI CONFIGURATION
=========================
explore2fsPE will look for an ini file called explore2fsPE.ini.  If you are happy with the default options, it is not necessary, though.  The INI file is formatted as follows:

[explore2fsPE]
explore2fsDirectory=explore2fs
SettingsDirectory=settings
AdditionalParameters=
explore2fsExecutable=explore2fs.exe
DisableSplashScreen=false

The explore2fsDirectory and SettingsDirectory entries should be set to the *relative* path to the appropriate directories from the current directory.  All must be a subdirectory (or multiple subdirectories) of the directory containing explore2fsPE.exe.  The default entries for these are described in the installation section above.

The AdditionalParameters entry allows you to pass additional commandline parameter entries to explore2fs.exe.  Whatever you enter here will be appended to the call to explore2fs.exe.

The explore2fsExecutable entry allows you to set explore2fsPE to use an alternate EXE call to launch explore2fs.  This is helpful if you are using a machine that is set to deny explore2fs.exe from running.  You'll need to rename the explore2fs.exe file and then enter the name you gave it on the explore2fsExecutable= line of the INI.

The DisableSplashScreen entry allows you to run explore2fsPE without the splash screen showing up.  The default is false.
