PLATFORMS:
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0

DESCRIPTION:
The Nautical Flags screen saver displays a randomly changing assortment of the 
International Code Signal Flags and Pennants that are used aboard ships to spell 
out messages. Its feature set includes password protection and a preview display 
in the miniature monitor in the Display Properties dialog. This program requires 
the VB5 runtime file MSVBVM50.DLL.

REVISION HISTORY:
Initial release.

INSTALLATION:
To install Nautical Flags under Windows 95 or Windows 98, copy the file 
"Nautical Flags.scr" to the System folder (typically this is C:\Windows\System). 
If you are running Windows NT, copy it to the System32 folder (typically this is 
C:\WinNT\System32).
In addition, you must install the Visual Basic 5.0 runtime file, 
MSVBVM50.DLL, in this same folder. Nautical Flags will not run if this file is 
missing, but unfortunately there is no way for it to display an error message 
explaining the problem. You can obtain this file, if you need it, from the same 
place where you obtain the program.
