Meazure comes with an installer tool to install all program files on the system. In addition to installing the program files, the installer configures the system to run the Meazure program. This configuration includes:
- Associating the file suffix .mea with the Meazure program
- Optionally placing an icon on the desktop
- Creating an entry on the Program menu
Meazure includes extensive online help. The program's Help menu provides access to the table of contents and index, as well as a search capability. In addition, context sensitive help is available using the F1 key, the SHIFT+F1 keys, and the What's This item on the Help menu.
Refer to the License.txt file distributed with this program for details on the licensing of the Meazure program.
