+

+Requirements

+----------------------

+	-> Miranda IM 0.6+:

+	Miranda IM is needed in version 0.6 or later.

+

+Usage

+----------------------

+	The registered associations of 'File Association Manager' can be

+	configured here: 'Options' -> 'Services' -> 'Associations'

+	You need to have other plugins installed that actually

+	offer URL protocols or file type associations.

+	This plugin only offers the registration service, it does not

+	add any file associations on its own. 

+

+Installation

+----------------------

+	Find 'miranda32.exe' on your computer.

+

+	Just copy all the contents of the zip-file as they are into the 'Plugins' directory

+	in the Miranda IM folder.

+	'File Association Manager' will detect the files and move them into the appropriate

+	directories on it's first run.

+	

+	You can also do all the installation by hand, if you want to:

+

+	Main Plugin: Copy the file 'assocmgr.dll' into the 'Plugins' subdirectory

+	in the Miranda IM folder. 

+

+	The Unicode version of the plugin will only work on Windows NT/2000/XP,

+	Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista or later with an installed

+	Unicode version of Miranda IM.

+	To use it on Windows 95/98/Me, please download the ANSI version of the plugin.

+	  

+	Documentation: The txt-files should be moved along with the SDK-zip into the

+	'Docs' directory in the Miranda IM folder. 

+

+	That's it!

+

+Bugs and Wishes

+----------------------

+	Feel free to mail me your wishes about 'File Association Manager' and tell

+	me all the bugs you may find.

+	My email address is: hrathh at users.sourceforge.net

+

+To-Do List (random ideas)

+----------------------

+	- draw a better mirandafile icon...anyone?

+	- outsource UrlDecode() function into MS_NETLIB_URLDECODE (MS_NETLIB_URLENCODE already exits)

+	  add nice wrapper Netlib_UrlDecode() as this needs to be called in each urlparser service (substrings)

+	- test using different browsers

+	- remove demo purpose code (after some time)

+	- dreaming of an installer.dll plugin that registers on

+	  mir-files to unzip them...anyone?

+
