* ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTIES - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK *

This is the VIDSERV/VMD suite, a set of programs that run alongside
Aerowinx' 747-400 Precision Simulator. It provides transport of
portions of the VGA screen image of the running simulator across a
TCP/IP network, for display on a remote computer.

VIDSERV is a re-write of the original VMREAD program. VMD has been
rewritten to work with VIDSERV. *NOTE* the version of VMD supplied
in this package is NOT compatible with the original VMREAD programs.

Package contents:
VIDTSR.COM	DOS-based Terminate-and-Stay-Resident program that
		handles the actual video hardware I/O operations
		on demand from VIDSERV.
VIDSERV.EXE	The video bitmap server. This program accepts incoming
		network connections on TCP port 0x744 and feeds a
		continuous stream of bitmap data.
VMD.EXE		The video bitmap displayer. This program runs on the
		remote computer and connects to VIDSERV. It displays
		up to 5 user-configurable sub-windows, corresponding
		to PS1's PFD, ND, Upper and Lower EICAS, and CDU.
IPC.VxD		Driver required by VIDSERV for interfacing with VIDTSR.
VMPEEK.DLL	Shared component required by VIDSERV.
VIDSERV.INI	Configuration file for VIDSERV.
VMD.INI		Configuration file for VMD.
VID.BAT		Sample BAT file to start VIDTSR and PS1 together in the
		same DOS window. It assumes VIDTSR is installed in the
		same folder as PS1 (\PS13).

Known bugs:
1. When opening new subwindows in VMD, the screen is initially garbled.
   Closing then re-opening the subwindow fixes the problem.

Change Log:
1.1: Added WHITECDU option. Improved positioning of bitmaps in
	subwindows. Added recognition of EE3.
1.2: OCR-rendered ASCII output of the CDU that works with Jeroen H's
	MCDU program.
1.3: Support for PS1.3A-EE4. Bugfix for VMD: correct display of IP
	address of VIDSERV
