Readme for release 1.07 of retab

Date: 4 May 2007

Installing retab
----------------

Retab works on any 32 bit (or 64 bit) version of Windows.

To install retab, simply place the file retab.exe into a folder and then execute it from the command prompt.  Refer to the documentation in file Retab.pdf or Retab.odt for a description of the command line parameters and options which can be used with retab.  The '-?' command line option will summarise the parameters and options.

If you place retab.exe into a folder which is included in Windows "PATH" environmental variable (such as the Windows folder), then you can easily execute retab.exe from any folder.  Otherwise you will either need to specify the complete path of retab.exe when executing it, or change the current directory to the folder in which retab.exe resides, before executing it.

Compiling
---------

I have compiled retab with CodeGear's C++ compiler which comes with CodeGear's BDS 2006 development environment.  However it should be possible to compile it with CodeGear's free Turbo C++ development environment which can be downloaded from http://www.turboexplorer.com/cpp

The 'C' code is pretty standard so it should not be hard to get retab to compile with other development environments.
