If you want it to be cross-platform, you can do exactly this as web pages
(ie with HTML). Anyone can then look at it in a browser.
There's a handy donationware executable, runfirst.exe which will
automatically load the index page on Win machines when used in conjunction
with a suitable autoplay.inf file. Instructions and runfirst.exe are
contained in the attached runfirst.zip. It works very well.
