This document was originally written by Greg Lewis.  It has been edited to
apply appropriately to SeHackEd by Mike Fredericks.


  This file contains setup instructions for SeHackEd v0.3.  If any users
have troubles setting up SeHackEd, hopefully this file will help alleviate
many of those problems.
 
  OK.  You just downloaded a copy of SeHackEd v0.3.  Now, you've got 
this SeHackEd zip file sitting on your computer.  What to do first?  
Obviously you have already unzipped it if you are reading this text 
file.  I'd advise first of all creating a separate directory to store 
SeHackEd in.  It certainly cuts down on the clutter in your main Strife 
directory, and is easier to handle new releases (if there are any more).  
I'll assume, for all the examples that I give in this file, that your 
computer is set up like the following.  If your computer is set up 
differently (as it almost certainly is), just substitute the directories 
that you have in your computer for the directories I give here.
 
Main Strife directory - c:\strife
SeHackEd directory - c:\strife\she
 
  Copy the SeHackEd zip file to your new SeHackEd directory, which is 
c:\strife\she in this example, and unzip it.  You should see around 10 
or 11 files of varying types.  Those that end in '.seh' are the main 
files that SeHackEd uses to change the Strife exe file.  The file that I 
will be concerned with in this text is the sehacked.ini file.
 
  The sehacked.ini file contains all of the custom settings for your
computer, so that SeHackEd knows where to look for stuff.  Usually the 
file can be altered once at the beginning and then left alone for the 
rest of the time that you use SeHackEd.
 
  You should see several lines in the ini file that contain one word
followed by an equal sign and then a directory or filename.  Those are 
the parameters that you will be changing.  There will also be lines that 
start with '#' symbols... ignore those lines, they are only comments to 
help you figure out what you are doing.  Find the lines with the equals 
signs and change them so that they look like this:
 
editname = <your_strife_directory>\strife1h.exe
normalname = <your_strife_directory>\strife1.exe
wadname = <your_strife_directory>\strife1.wad
patchdir = <your_sehacked_directory>
pathname = <your_strife_directory>
 
  So, in the example directories given above, these lines would look
like this:
 
editname = c:\strife\strife1h.exe
normalname = c:\strife\strife1.exe
wadname = c:\strife\strife1.wad
patchdir = c:\strife\dhe
pathname = c:\strife
 
  Save the sehacked.ini file.  You should be about ready to start editing 
now!  Simply type "sehacked" at the command line, and you will be able to 
load and save the patch files, and begin editing the information yourself!

  If you need more information about SeHackEd's keys or moving around in 
the editor, or if you are having other types of problems, please refer to
the SHEHELP.TXT file.  It contains just information on just about every
aspect of using the editor.  And, of course, feel free to send me email
if you continue to have problems.  I generally get very swamped during the
school year, but I will try to help you out if I can.

  Enjoy!
