This package consists of the following directories:

english\sh3	for Windows CE (English) & SH3 CPU	(Cassiopeia)
english\mips	for Windows CE (English) & MIPS CPU	(Compaq)
japanese\sh3	for Windows CE (Japanese) & SH3 CPU
japanese\mips	for Windows CE (Japanese) & MIPS CPU

Each directory corresponds to each combination of Windows CE version
and CPU type. Choose one directory and see files in the directory.

In the directory, you should find the following two files:

teraterm.exe	Pocket Tera Term executable file
ttras.exe	Dial utility for the Dial-up network (TCP/IP)

Copy these files from PC to H/PC.
The file "teraterm.exe" can be copied to an H/PC directory of your
choice (for example, "\Program Files\teraterm").
The file "ttras.exe" should be copied to the "\Windows" directory.
