    [ aiPoTT S.T. ]

=================================================================================

    Version 3.5.1
    February 2012

=================================================================================


IMPORTANT
---------
It is an absolute necessity that some libraries are being copied into your
Java Home directory before starting aiPoTT. Execute 'CopyAssistant.jar', it will
copy eight jar-files to JavaHome/lib/ext. Those files are neccessary for the
JavaZOOM BasicPlayer and aiPoTT will NOT run without them!!!
When 'CopyAssistant.jar' shows an error message you must use Copy And Paste:
Copy the eight jar-files from the directory aiPoTTST/LibExt and
paste them into the directory /lib/ext of your JavaHome directory.


=================================================================================


NOTICE
------
The fonts Lcars.ttf (LCARS) and tt0768m_.ttf (Handle Gothic BT) are neccessary
for the specific look of the [ aiPoTT S.T. ] application. They are also copied
with the 'CopyAssistant.jar'.
When 'CopyAssistant.jar' shows an error message you must use Copy And Paste:
Copy the two ttf-files from the directory aiPoTTST/Fonts and
paste them into the right directory of your Operating System:
Linux: /usr/share/fonts/truetype, usually, as root
Windows: C:\Windows\Fonts, as Administrator
