=====================
CONTENTS OVERVIEW:
This file contains an updated version of libmcrd.h
and libmcrd.lib (version 4.2.1),  which had a bug in 
the MemCardGetDirEntry() function. A previous Red E Report
referred to the problem with libmcrd.lib 4.2, and recommended
that 1) you either use the older libmcrd.lib 4.1 or 2) wait
for this patch. The Metrowerks  versions for Macintosh and Windows will be posted 
in the near future.  To verify that you have the correct
library, type "pkver libmcrd.lib" in the \PSX\LIB directory.
(PKVER.EXE exists in your \PSX\BIN directory.)  


====================
INSTRUCTIONS:
Use Pkunzip or Winzip to extract the header file "libmcrd.h" into
your \INCLUDE directory and the library file "libmcrd.lib" 
int your \LIB directory. As a general rule, always remember to
modify your PSYQ.INI or SN.INI files to link to the appropriate
libraries.  To verify that you have the correct
library, type "pkver libmcrd.lib" in the \PSX\LIB directory.
(PKVER.EXE exists in your \PSX\BIN directory.)
