[Blindapple] help getting started with the windows games

Sat Feb 1 02:14:15 EST 2014

First, go to the computer icon on the desktop, open it, then open your c 
drive, and under the file menu, choose new, then right arrow to open that, 
and folder is the first option. Then call that new folder mess apple2ee, 
note the two e's at the end. Then unzip the contents of the mess apple 
package to mess apple2ee. You will then need to type from the run dialog, 
cmd. That puts you at a command prompt, then type cd\mess apple2ee. Then you 
can open one of the disks, for example mess apple2ee -flop1 
disks\egames.dsk, then hit enter and the emulator should run for you.
