1. PC 486 and above with at least 16 MB RAM.
2. Microsoft Windows 95 (Dutch, French, German, Hebrew,
Hebrew-Enabled, Italian, OSR2, Spanish or US)
3. Between 9 MB and 24 MB hard disk space, depending on how
many dictionaries you install. If your version of
EasyLingo includes speech support and you choose to
install this feature, you will need between 15 and 30 MB
hard disk space.
4. Some versions of EasyLingo include speech support. To
use this feature, you must have a sound card installed
on your computer.

II. NOTES ABOUT INSTALLATION

1. If you previously installed a version of EasyLingo, you
must uninstall it before installing the current version
of EasyLingo. After uninstalling the old version, shut
down and restart the computer.
2. Some versions of EasyLingo include speech support. To
use this feature, you must select the following options
during installation:
* In the Select Components dialog box, select the
component EasyLingo, then select the sub-component
Speech.
* Select at least one dictionary that has English as
its source language. (EasyLingo's speech support
 pronounces English words only.)
Note: Speech Support files are installed in an LHSP
subdirectory of your Win95 directory.

III. GETTING STARTED

1. To run EasyLingo after installation, choose Programs
from the Start menu and select EasyLingo from the
EasyLingo program group. If you chose a different
program group during setup, substitute the program group
you chose.
2. To display the EasyLingo window, double-click the
EasyLingo icon in the tray (to the right of the
taskbar), or right-click the icon and choose Show
Window.

IV. TROUBLESHOOTING AND KNOWN LIMITATIONS

1. EasyLingo uses Accent Software International's
text-grabbing system to let you look up words from other
programs by clicking or pointing to them with your mouse
("Mouse Word Selection"). If you are already running
another program using Accent's text-grabbing system,
such as Webster's New World Dictionary and Thesaurus,
you cannot run EasyLingo until you close the other
program.
2. If you experience performance problems using Mouse Word
Selection with Point Method, try using Click Method
instead.
3. You cannot use the mouse to select words in most menus,
although Mouse Word Selection in menus does work in some
programs including Microsoft Office 97.
4. ToolTips do not display more than ten translations, even
if you select All in the Max. number of translations box
in the Properties dialog.
5. After you select a word with the mouse, the EasyLingo
Main Window appears to be active even though it isn't.
If you then want to enter a word in the Main Window,
make sure to first click the mouse in the Main Window to
make it the active window.
6. Uninstalling Internet Explorer 4.0 after installing
EasyLingo may affect EasyLingo's ToolTips. To restore
proper functioning of ToolTips, reinstall EasyLingo.
When you reinstall, make sure that Program Files is
selected in the components selection dialog. You do not
have to reinstall any dictionaries.
7. If your version of EasyLingo includes Hebrew support:
* When translating to and from Hebrew, Gender and
Part of Speech information is not available. In
 addition, you must enter abbreviations manually
rather than selecting them with the mouse.
* This version does not support Hebrew vowels
(nikud). When you select a word with nikud, the
translation may be unavailable or incorrect.
8. There is a compatibility problem with this version of
EasyLingo and Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus
Version 1.0. If you installed both programs and
Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus does not
work, uninstall EasyLingo and reboot your computer.
Then, reinstall EasyLingo.
Note: You may want to contact technical support for
Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus to see if a
compatible Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus
upgrade has been released. The technical support phone
number is printed in the program's CD booklet.
9. In some cases, when you use EasyLingo's mouse to select
a word next to a word in a different font, the two words
run together, preventing proper translation.
10. Some audio programs displaying animated images or digital
clocks may interfere with Mouse Word Selection. To
eliminate this problem, set the user interface of
the audio application to a static display or minimize
the application, or both.

V. UNINSTALLING EasyLingo
To uninstall EasyLingo:
1. From the Windows Start menu, choose Settings.
2. Choose Control Panel.
3. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
4. Select Accent EasyLingo and click Add/Remove.
If you want to uninstall EasyLingo then reinstall it, you
must shut down and restart your computer after uninstalling.
