ABOUT CoolPlayer+ PORTABLE
==========================
The CoolPlayer+ Portable Launcher allows you to run CoolPlayer from a removable drive whose letter changes as you move it to another computer.  The program can be entirely self-contained on the drive and then used on any Windows computer.

INSTALLATION / DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
==================================
The program expects the following directory structure:

-\ <--- Directory with CoolPlayer+Portable.exe

CoolPlayer+Portable.INI CONFIGURATION
=================================
The CoolPlayer+ Portable Launcher will look for an ini file called CoolPlayer+Portable.ini in the same directory.  If you are happy with the default options, it is not necessary, though.  The INI file is formatted as follows:

[CoolPlayer+Portable]
AdditionalParameters=
DisableSplashScreen=false

The AdditionalParameters entry allows you to specify additional parameters to be passed to CoolPlayer+.exe on the command line.

The DisableSplashScreen entry allows you to run the Launcher without the splash screen showing up.  The default is false.
