The package is provided as a WarpIn package. Installation is performed by a
double click on the base WPI file (OOoWPS100.wpi).

Please note that WarpIn 1.0.15 or higher is required.
You can download the latest WarpIn package from http://warpin.netlabs.org

[ WPS data file class ]

The WPS classes do not require OpenOffice.org to be installed to allow
displaying of properties and preview thumbnail.

OpenOffice.org for eComstation and OS/2 must be installed to allow
drag'n'drop printing and opening of files. Use of the OpenOffice.org
quickstart feature allows faster printing and opening, otherwise a new
instance of the OpenOffice.org binaries will be invoked.

[ WPS-Wizard support ]

If you have installed WPS-Wizard (see below) please select the main
WPS-Wizard installation directory, otherwise scripts cannot be placed in
the proper place.

[ REXX hooks ]

See the WPS-Wizard scripts for a sample use of rexx hooks.
