TECHNICAL MATTERS

It is recommended that scrutelle is installed into:

C:\Program Files\scrutelle

This directory should contain the files:
scrutelle.exe
scrutelle.ini

and folder \html
(if you have installed the help files)

The file scrutelle.ini is your licence file which defines the limits on competitiors & judges

Filenames & Extensions
When you create a new data set, scrutelle creates 2 files in your data directory with extensions .sct & .scx

These files are updated as the competition is run so that you can always retrace your steps, for example if you want to reproduce the printed output

If you want to transfer data from one computer to another, remember to copy both files

Filename conventions are very much a matter of personal choice. But problems are less likely to happen if names are kept as short as is meaningfully possible. Avoid mixed case and embedded blanks. It is better to use the underscore character in preference to a blank
