     I've had alot of complaints from folks who seem to be having problems
     installing the new SuperK HST even though it comes complete  with  an
     installation  utility!  The  problem is NOT with SuperK HST nor is it
     with  the  installation  utility....  rather,  it  is  with the users
     attempting to install SuperK HST!  The problem all boils down to  the
     fact  that  these users are not reading what is displayed in front of
     them or don't know how to follow SIMPLE instructions (so what else is
     new)!

     The SKinst instructions are as follows:

            Install SuperK HST (Y/n) _

     Upon entering  Y   or   y   or  just hitting  Enter, SKinst asks:

            Full drive:\path (Enter = Current) _

     Now folks, this is not a trick question!  Simply, if the installation
     utility  (SKINST)  and  the  SuperK  HST library (SUPERK.HST) already
     reside in the directory in which the actual  SuperK  HST  files  will
     reside,  just  hit  the Enter key...  that's the big key on the right
     side of the keyboard that looks something like this:

                             ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ 
                             ³         ³
                        ÚÄÄÄÄÙ         ³
                        ³  Enter ÄÄÙ  ³
                        ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ

     On  the  other  hand,  if  the  installation utility (SKINST) and the
     SuperK HST library (SUPERK.HST) reside somewhere other  than  in  the
     directory in which the actual SuperK HST files will reside, enter the
     FULL drive and path (Example: C:\BIN\MYFILES\ ) where SuperK HST will
     in fact reside.  That's all there is to it.  Skinst will do the rest.


     Sorry for the sarcasm but come on folks, really....
