	To install, simply copy bigbook.hlp to any drive and directory and 
access it by double clicking on the name in File Manager, or put it in a

	I hope you find enhanced sobriety and useful enjoyment from this 
electronic book.  Transforming the written word of Bill W. into a pleasing 
display on your monitor has been instructive and fun, and enough work for 
quite a few twenty-four hours.  You may redistribute it, but please do read 
the copyright notice first.  If you appreciate this type of presentation of 
the message of Alcoholics Anonymous, why not write G.S.O. and say so?  I 
don't see why A.A. World Services (see the letter in copyright) couldn't or 
shouldn't sell such read-only files for its (our) own account.

	From another perspective, let me quote from the prime mover of 
Project Gutenberg. "Somewhere between the present and Star Trek, all that 
stuff gets into the computer," says Hart. "Nobody ever questions that all 
the books ever written are in the Enterprise's computer. But nobody ever 
asks how they got there. We're the ones putting them in."

	Thanks to Robert Heberger of Vi Qual Software, developer of The 
Windows Help Magician for invaluable technical support.

	Special thanks to our fellow recovering alcoholics and others who 
contribute to the Addiction  / Recovery section of GOODHEALTH on CompuServe. 
Those denizens of the new dimension of SoberSpace have been a wonderful 
encouragement to persist in this work.  I would be delighted to hear from you

by e-mail or msg. to CompuServe #76350,2064

or on my BBS

	Now that we have that out the way, here is the real nitty gritty:
