IMPORTANT NOTE: The installation procedure has changed, we hope for the
better. Please read this even if you have installed
MiniVend before.

We IMPLORE you to read all of the verbiage below. We know how most
of us are, so we put the install procedure up here, but if you have
problems please read all of this file, PLUS the MiniVend documentation
in doc/minivend.html. Also, please check out the official MiniVend
FAQ at http://www.minivend.com/minivend/faq/ before you call for help.
And send your system, Perl, and Minivend information, VERSIONS AND ALL!

on your machine or is not in your path. Go to http://www.perl.com
and install the *standard* 5.004 version (AKA the Gurusamy Sarathy
port). MiniVend will not work with the ActiveState 5.003 port; it
appears to work well with the "Merge" port.

Some features are untested in the Windows version, and it
can be considered a beta.

If you have installed the MIME::Base64 and URI::URL (from libwww)
modules, then there is a new interface that is available for
a GUI-like catalog configuration. It should run automatically
upon a new installation.
