        README.txt for Netica Application 1.04e      Nov. 21, 1996
        ---------------------------------------

This program requires Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0.

Releases are being issued about every 2 or 3 weeks.  The last
letter of the version "number" increases once each time.

There are two significant features that have been postponed 
to the next release:

1. Manual and Online help.

   You can use the manual for the Macintosh version 
   (file NeticaManual.ps) since the Windows version is almost 
   exactly the same, and the use is very intuitive.
   
   One difference is that to enter a finding with the Mac
   version you Cmnd-click on a node, whereas with the Windows
   version you right-click on it.  Also the menu layout is
   slightly different, but the names are all the same.
   
   Commands from the Mac toolbar are under the "Modify" menu
   of the Windows version. To add a nature node, choose 
   "Add Nature Node" from the "Modify" menu, and then click 
   where you want the node in the network (or to be faster,
   just press the F9 key).

2. Probability table editor.

   To view the probabilities of a node, select it and then
   choose Relation->Print from the menu.  The table will appear
   in the Messages window.

   To enter the probabilities for a node, give the node an
   initial probability table (e.g. by selecting it and choosing
   Relation->Uniform Probabilites from the menu) and save the
   network.  Then use File->Open As Text  to read the network
   back in, and directly modify the tables so they contain the 
   probabilities you wish.
