You'll need a hard drive (with free space !) and at least RiscOS 3.1.


Simple, in *this* order:

Settype of "BasPlug" to BASIC.

Run "BasPlug"

Run "!SparkPlug"

Drag all the below files to !SparkPlug one at a time and copy *everything*
in them to an empty directory - don't worry about overwriting duplicate
files with the same name.
        ArcWeb147       - !ArcWeb, web browser
        ChangeFSI       - !ChangeFSI, graphics conversion for ArcWeb
        Freenet102      - Freenet TCP/IP stack for ArcWeb
        Groups014       - !Groups, Newsbase groups manager
        KA9Q205         - !TCPIP
        NBase055f       - !Newsbase, mail manager
        QEdit056        - !QEdit, mail queue manager
        SlipDial38      - !SlipDial, dialler
        Toolbox         - System updates for ArcWeb
        TTFN036         - !TTFN, mail reader
        ZetAcorn        - Zetnet update stuff

Run "!SysMerge" to update System.

Edit the file "!Setup" with your account details.

Run "DoZetnet".

Run "!SlipDial".

Wait for SlipDial to initialise and then click on the SlipDial "T" icon.

Wait for SlipDial to log on and run !TCPIP.

You are now logged on, news and mail should automatically kick in.

To log off either type "quit" into the TCPIP command window or choose
"disconnect" from the SlipDial icon bar menu. TCPIP will disconnect
automatically after a certain period of inactivity.

Once you've logged off, SlipDial should run !NewsBase which will process
any mail which has been grabbed.

Read stuff in "Documents" and the application directories.


For Web:

Choose "Choices" from the !SlipDial icon bar menu.

Change the "Auto-run" script to "ZetNetF". Click "Save".

Quit SlipDial.

Re-run "!SlipDial".

Wait for SlipDial to initialise and then click on the SlipDial "F" icon.

Wait for SlipDial to log on and run !Freenet.

Run "!ArcWeb".

Web out.

To log off choose "disconnect" from the SlipDial icon bar menu.

Remember to change scipt back to "ZetNet" for TCPIP.


For IRC:

Type "telnet irc.demon.co.uk" into TCPIP.


For FTP:

Either use the "aftp <address>" command in TCPIP or use ArcWeb with
"ftp://<address>/".
