Zen Tarot is designed to run on handhelds with Palm OS TM version 3.0 and later including (but not limited to) these devices:
Additionally, you must have at least 281 KB RAM free to install this program and one text database. This amount is increased to 567 KB if installing the lowest definition image database.
Note: This program is not compatible with the Pilot 1000, Pilot 5000, PalmPilot, and PalmPilot Professional devices.

Installation is done through the Palm Desktop software that shipped with your handheld. Check to make sure your handheld device meets the basic requirements in the Requirements section of this guide. Most importantly, make sure you have enough free memory for installing this software as the image databases tend to be large.
The Zen Tarot software consists of three components: the program, text databases, and image databases. You must install the program and at least one text database, but the image databases are optional. The program downloads contain the English program, one text database for the indicated language, and the basic 4-level monochrome or grayscale image database. The text databases contain descriptions for each of the Osho Zen Tarot cards, while the image databases contain pictures for these cards.
Additional Language and Image Pack downloads are available at the www.hudren.com website. These additional downloads are optional and can be installed now or at a later time. Installing more than one text database allows you to switch back and forth between those languages. The Image Pack downloads contain image databases that take advantage of advanced displays (such as color), but require more memory to store on your handheld.
Since there are many files distributed with Zen Tarot, they have been combined and packaged into archive files for convenient downloading. These archive files are available in several formats: .ZIP which is suitable for all operating systems, .EXE which is a self-extracting executable for Windows, .SIT which is common for Mac OS, and .TGZ for Linux and other Unix-based computers. The first step is to decompress these files onto the hard drive of your desktop computer.
If you downloaded an .EXE file, double-click it in the Windows Explorer window. This will prompt you to decompress the files into the c:\zentarot directory. Click the Unzip button, and when it's finished, click the Close button.
If you downloaded any other type of archive, you'll need to use an appropriate utility to decompress these files.
Depending on which archive file you downloaded, you will find some (but generally not all) of the following files:
For installation from a Windows-based PC, you will use the Palm Install Tool to transfer the Zen Tarot program and associated databases onto your handheld:
Once the program has been installed on your handheld device, you may delete the directory containing the Zen Tarot files on your hard drive, although you may want to read or save the user guide (guide.pdf) before deleting these files.
If you are experiencing any problems with the installation, please check your handheld's manual for information about installing third-party software.
Upgrading to the latest version of Zen Tarot is as simple as installing the ZenTarot.prc file using the same method as originally installing Zen Tarot. You do not need to remove the existing version before installing the new version, and you do not need to re-install the text or image databases.
Registered users are entitled to use all future versions of Zen Tarot, so be sure to periodically check our website for free updates.
Uninstalling or removing Zen Tarot is handled by the built-in Launcher application on your handheld device. Choose the Delete menu option, select Zen Tarot from the list of installed applications, and tap the Delete button to completely remove the Zen Tarot application, text, and image databases. Your preferences and registration information will also be removed and will need to be re-entered when the application is installed again at a later time.

For a complete revision history, please see the user guide.
Zen Tarot is distributed as a shareware program meaning that you may use this program for a brief trial or evaluation period. If you continue to use this program for more than thirty (30) days, however, you are required to register this software for a fee.
Full registration details for this software are available on our website at http://www.hudren.com/register.
While the program downloads and registrations are available for different languages, the registration code will work for all available languages. Please register for the language you will primarily use so that we may understand the level of interest for each language.
Once we have been notified of your registration (which can sometimes take up to 24 hours or longer), we will send you a registration confirmation email containing your registration code. The Reminder dialog will no longer be displayed once this information is entered into the Registration dialog on your handheld. Saving this information in a safe place is a good idea as it may become necessary to enter it again when re-installing the software.
Unfortunately, email delivery is not 100% reliable, and increased anti-spamming efforts often block the registration email without notifying us that the email was not delivered. Also, we occaisonally receive email addresses that were not entered correctly or addresses for email accounts with full quotas that are not accepting new emails. Many people have even deleted the registration email incorrectly thinking it was spam.
We take the responsibility of delivering your registration code very seriously and most are delivered within twenty (20) minutes of an order being placed (may be longer if the order was placed on a website other than our own). If you have not received your registration code within two (2) business days, please contact us so that we can resend it or make other arrangements to get it to you.
You must enter the registration information exactly as it appears in the confirmation email. The code will not work if they do not match exactly, including letter case, spaces, and punctuation (including hyphens). Please do not hesitate to contact us at support@hudren.com if you have any questions or experience any problems entering your registration code.
Starting with Zen Tarot 1.1, an alternative method for entering the registration information is available by copying all of the registration information (in particular, the three lines containing the name, email, and code values) to the clipboard of the handheld device and then switching to the Zen Tarot application. For example, you might use the Palm Desktop software to create a memo containing the registration information by copying and pasting it from the registration email. After syncing, open this memo on the handheld and copy the registration information to the clipboard. When you switch to the Zen Tarot application, the Registration dialog will be displayed with the registration information automatically entered into the appropriate fields.
If you have misplaced or discarded your registration information and need it again, you may visit our website at http://www.hudren.com/support to request that it be emailed to you.
Registered users are entitled to use all future versions of Zen Tarot, so be sure to periodically check our website for free updates.
Thank you for supporting this product by registering the software.
