KRS_BIN_Editor v1.0.5
--------------

Installation
------------
1.	Make a new folder and name it whatever you like, e.g. KRS_Editor
	Unzip this package and place KRS_BIN_Editor.exe and this readme
	file in the folder.

2. You must obtain a copy of SERZ.exe, it is supplied with any of
	the KRS downloadable extra Locos from the RailSimulator web site
	and will appear in your RailSimulator\Packager folder when you install
	them.

3. Copy the above SERZ.exe and place it in your Windows\System32
	folder where it will be available for use by KRS_BIN_Editor

4. KRS_BIN_Editor requires the VB6 runtime files to be installed on your
	PC to run, however if you already have Route_Riter or Conbuilder or use
	Vista then you may already have this package installed and do not need
	to do anything, if not do a Google search for them.

	Some users have advised that they were advised RichTx32.ocx was missing
	on their PC, I have enclosed a copy, it should be placed in Windows\System32
	and registered by going to the Start button, opening the 'Run' box and
	entering    Regsvr32 richtx32.ocx   in the box and clicking OK. Under
	Vista you will need to have administrator rights to do this.

	If comdlg32.ocx is also reported as missing, you can do a Google search
	for it and download from the web, although this should be on most PCs.

5. Make a desktop icon for the program if you wish, otherwise click
	on the .exe to run it.

Running
-------
1. Click on the .exe file to run it.

2. Use the browse '....' button to find/load the .bin file you wish to edit

3. It will open in the text box and may be edited therein. There is also a
	search/replace option.

4. Once finished, if you do not wish to continue, click Exit and nothing is changed.
   however a .xml version of your file will be left in the KRS_Editor folder.

5. If all is well, click Save and the original .bin file will be renamed
	by having .bak appended to it, and the new .bin file will replace it.

6. If the new one does not work as expected, just rename the .bak file back
	to its original name.

v1.0.3 - Includes button to clear the editor screen, Save the .xml file only,
	Program now saves screen placement/size when you exit and restarts with that
	screen placement/size.

v1.0.4 - Now includes a new button 'View other KRS files' which will open files
	such as .GeoPcDx and .TgPcDx files in .xml mode, however although you can view
	these, the program does NOT convert them back to their original .GeoPcDx formats
	as these are shape and texture files and any changes you make could be dangerous.
	However I have included this option for the more experienced to at least study
	the files until such time as the Developer tools appear.

Note: 	Use this program entirely at your own risk. It is a powerful tool capable
				of making large changes to your KRS setup. However backups are made of any
				files you change, so should be safe to use by experienced users.

Please advise of any changes required/bugs etc.
