Installation

Create a new installation directory and unzip the archive into that directory. The recommended path for this directory is "C:\Program Files\mkhtm".

Run the batch file named "mkhtmins.bat" in your installation directory. You can do this by double-clicking on the file in Windows Explorer. This will perform the following steps:

  1. Add a new item called "HTML File Info" to the right-click pop-up menus for the following file types: .htm, .html, .gif, and .jpg.

  2. It will also add two new entries to the right-click New menu: "Make HTML Dir" and "Make HTML Set".

  3. Add the installation directory to the PATH in your C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

Drag the file drophtm.exe from your installation directory to the Windows Start menu or your desktop (or whereever is convenient for you). This will create a Windows shortcut to the program.

After your computer has restarted, you can go to the Quick Start page to try it out!
