		FPG File Converter (Guestserver -> FPG)
		
		Guestserver is the guestbook system written by Lars Ellingsen. 
		If you are using LS's guestbook and want to copy it's entries 
		to the new FPG, you have to do the steps below:
		
			- Download the guestserver file guestbook.data
			- Remove all old files
			- Install your new Free Perl Guestbook
			- Upload the file gs_2_fpg.cgi to the folder which contains 
			  guestbook.cgi (chmod 755)
			- Upload the Guestserver file guestbook.data to the same 
			  folder (chmod 777)
			- Open the browser and call the script gs_2_fpg.cgi 
			  (http://www.yourserver.com/cgi-bin/gs_2_fpg.cgi)
			- Open your FPG to see the result
	
		That's all
		
		
	For users of Active Script's guestbook

		No conversion needed. You only have to rename the file 
		guestbook_data.txt and upload it to the folder tdpn_v_10_dir
		on your server (chmod 777)
		
		
	For users of free services like guestbook.de
	############################################
	
		Please copy all entries of your guestbook to a text file and
		contact me. There is no file converter for all guestbook,
		because the conversion depends on the format/design of your
		guestbook.
		
		Note: you may contact the guestbook provider and ask for the
		file that contains your guestbook entries. It's easier than
		copying hundreds of entries from the guestbook interface.
