The skyglobe program is pretty basic, you might almost say feral! Just unzip the files in some directory (folder) that you create -- like, say, Sky or even Slyglobe -- (hit MY COMPUTER, C (drive), FILE, NEW FOLDER) then drag the skyglobe.exe onto the desktop as a shortcut. (Hey, don't forget to rename the "New folder" to -say- "sky". You know, just right click the "new folder" and select RENAME. Really hip programmers click the folder then click it a second time after just the right interval.)
Right-click the icon then hit PROPERTIES. Select the PROGRAM tab and make sure the CLOSE ON EXIT square (near the bottom) is ticked. Look at the "Cmd line" box... it probably says something like "C:\sky\skyglobe.exe". After you get really into this you may want to make several shortcuts with commands after the "skyglobe.exe" like "skyglobe.exe 1". Oh, on the top if it says "shortcut to skyglobe.exe" change it to something simple like "sky".
Read the readme.txt
For a quick start, start up skyglobe, hit "r" a couple of times to get the program running (you won't have to do this if you actually purchase the program!) then enter "l" (lower case ell). This brings up the LOCATIONS window and you go to the end of the list for MORE LOCATIONS then scroll down to BRISBANE. Now if you hit "1" (the number one) this configuration will be saved (as skyglobe.cf1) and you can start the program if you start "skyglobe.exe 1". Later you may find configurations that you really like and you can save them as 2, 3, 4,...9. WARNING. If you accidentally hit a number key, you clobber that .CFn file and there is no save!!! I will include a skyglobe.cf1 that might work with the shareware version.
