How to install HTMLclean (instructions for Windows XP)

Dowload the program HTMLclean.exe at the bottom of this page and save it on your computer. It will probably save to your desktop. I strongly recommend cutting and pasting it into your c:\program files folder.
Run Windows Explorer (not internet explorer). The quickest way to run it is to hold down the [window] key at the front left of most keyboards and press the [E] key.
On the tools menu, chose [folder options...] and then the [file types] tab
Press the [New] button and type drt in the box and press [OK] to register the file type
Now that you have the file type registered, press the [Change...] button, choose “Select the program from a list” and press [OK]
Make sure Always use the selected program is checked, and press [Browse]
If you have put HTMLclean.exe in c:\program files, you will see it right away. Click on it and press [Open]
Press [OK] and [Close] and you are done!

If you are using Word, save the file as a web page. (Use “filtered HTML” if you have that option)
rename the file extension (last three letters) from .htm to .drt
double-click the file and a cleaned-up version will appear with an .htm extension!

By default, Windows hides the last three letters because it assumes users are too stupid to know what they mean
You can make them visible by running Windows Explorer (as above) and go to:
- [tools], [Folder options...], [View] tab
- uncheck [] Hide extensions for known file types and press [OK]
The file extensions will now be visible

then download hclean.exe and associate it with .dst files
(that one is for you Adrian!)
