Apple Internet Connection Kit: AppleGuide Files (3/97)

I installed Apple Internet Connection Kit (AICK) 1.2. Before, I could use AppleGuide from the Apple Internet Dialer's Help menu to obtain usage information about AICK, now, I cannot do this. Yet I notice that there is a folder called "Guide Files" in the Internet Connection Kit folder. What gives?
Generally, for Guide files to be recognized, they must be in the same folder as the application they are to be used with.

AICK 1.1.5 comes with a solitary Guide file, "Apple Internet Conn Kit Guide." This was pre-installed in the Internet Connection Kit folder, at the same level as Apple Internet Dialer version 1.1.3.

AICK 1.2 comes with six Guide files. These are located in the Guide Files folder, which is in the Internet Connection Kit folder. They provide more information about how the various Internet clients which come with AICK 1.2 work. The files are:

* Apple Internet Conn Kit Guide
* NewsWatcher Guide Additions
* Emailer Guide Additions
* Navigator Guide Additions
* Fetch Guide Additions
* Telnet Guide Additions

To use these files, move them to the same folder as the Apple Internet Dialer. To access them, open the Apple Internet Dialer and choose "Apple Internet Connection Kit Guide" from the Help menu (the question mark in the top right corner of the screen). To see the various product categories, click on the Topics button, once AppleGuide launches.

NOTE: Do not move the Guide Additions into the various client folders (for example, don't move the Navigator Guide Additions into the Netscape folder). They are designed for use with the Apple Internet Conn Kit Guide file, which can only be read by the Apple Internet Dialer.
