  • Excerpt from the readme file: "This simple demonstration program should assist in getting GpTextFile running. The program does not require any additional components to be installed. The program reads a file (keyed to a button) and displays what it has read. The program will run under Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT and Windows Millenium. However, the display will not appear if you are using Windows 95 or Windows 98."
