	riopump.exe	The RioPump Executable!!

	Required
	--------
	-Windows 95/98
	-You'll need the MSVBVM50.DLL library. Grab it from my
	web page. http://publish.uwo.ca/~mhorgan


	Overview
	--------
	This program started as a brainstorm I had one morning when I was
	loading some songs onto my Rio(c) before class.  As easy as 
	clicking and dragging is, laziness prevailed and I soon found
	myself annoyed at having to actually pick the songs myself.

	RioPump is a quick playlist generator for use with the RioManager
	software included with the Diamond Rio(c).  You tell it a
	directory, and it will go through all the sub-directories,
	randomly picking files until it hits 32MB.
	
	RioPump will then create a playlist of these files and place it
	on your Windows Desktop for you to drag onto the RioManager.

	Usage
	-----
	1) Select the directories that your .mp3s are under, and
	"Add" them.
	2) Select directories you're not interested in and
	"Exclude" them.
	3) Click the "Pick 'Em" button.
	4) A file called riopump.m3u will be placed on your
	desktop (unless you specify a different name)
	5) Open up Rio Managaer
	6) Initialize your memory, and drag this file onto the area.


	Known Bugs
	----------
	-Sometimes long directories mess up.  I haven't isolated the
	problem yet.
