Installation
The "4D Internet Commands" plug-in is integrated in 4th Dimension in the same way as other plug-ins.
4D Internet Commands becomes automatically available when you install a 4D product since the plug-in is automatically installed in the PlugIns folder of your application.

Software Requirements
The list below details the software requirements to use 4D Internet Commands in a 4th Dimension database. It is not necessary to meet all of these requirements, only those pertaining to the set of commands that will be used.
