[Blindapple] help getting started with the windows games

[Byron Stephens]

What I did was create a folder loose in the root of the c drive called mess 
apple2ee, note the two e's at the end, then unzipped the contents of the 
emulator to mess apple2ee. Then type cmd from the run directory, and cd\mess 
apple2ee. Then type the command to start a disk. For example, mess 
apple2ee -flop1disks\fortune.dsk. Substitute that example name for whatever 
disk you'd like to run. I'm willing to do an on-air demo again of running 
the emulator.
