                     TELEGARD PROTOCOL INSTALLATION PACKAGE
                         Version 5 to Version 6 Upgrade

                       By Martin Pollard - April 23, 1990


     **NOTE**  If  you  are  installing this package for  the  first  time,
               please  read the PROTOCOL.DOC file for  instructions.   This
               file  is only for persons that have installed Version  5  of
               this package and wish to upgrade to Version 6.


                    _______________________________________

                     UPGRADING FROM VERSION 5 TO VERSION 6
                    _______________________________________

     Version 6 has these enhancements over Version 5:

          *    A  new  version of DSZ.COM that supports the  new  MobyTurbo
               mode for faster file transfers.
          *    The Kermit protocol has been added.
          *    Jmodem Resume has been added (via the SuperK program).
          *    A few additional changes and improvements to PROTOCOL.DAT.

     Follow these steps to perform the upgrade:

          1.   UnZIP the TGPROT6A.ZIP package into your main BBS directory.

          2.   Type  "UPGRADE" and press <ENTER>.  This runs a  batch  file
               that automatically performs the upgrade.

     That's it!  (Real tough, huh!)

                        UPGRADING FROM EARLIER VERSIONS
                       _________________________________

     The  easiest  way  to upgrade from earlier versions  of  the  protocol
     package is to delete all the files associated with the old package and
     install  Version 6 from scratch.  This ensures that you have  all  the
     latest  versions of the protocol programs, as well as all  the  latest
     bug  fixes in PROTOCOL.DAT.  (Since the package has changed  so  much,
     detailed  instructions  on converting from earlier versions  would  be
     impractical.)
