^C^1* GOSSAMER *
^C^IKeeps "screen burn in" away

You're going to love the colorful web-like designs that
GOSSAMER creates on your screen when you run the DOS program
or the Windows 3.1 screen saver module on this issue. No
matter which environment you prefer, you'll be able to enjoy
GOSSAMER while your computer is "inactive."


^C^I---GOSSAMER FOR DOS INSTRUCTIONS---

STEP 1 - Copy GOSSAMER.EXE into a subdirectory that is in
         your computer's "path statement." If you aren't
         sure which subdirectories are in your path, type
         "PATH" then press Enter at the DOS prompt, and DOS
         will display your path. NOTE: you do not have to
         copy the program into a subdirectory in your path;
         however, if you do not, you won't be able to run
         GOSSAMER from any location in your directory tree
         structure (i.e., from any drive or directory).
STEP 2 - At the DOS prompt, type GOSSAMER to run the
         program. Be sure to note the controls or command
         line parameters below that alter the design
         GOSSAMER "paints" on your computer screen.
STEP 3 - Press any key to return to the DOS prompt.
STEP 4 - This is an optional step. You may also add GOSSAMER
         to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to automatically run it
         each time you boot up, by making "GOSSAMER.EXE" the
         last line in the .BAT file. NOTE: if you set up
         Clock Worx (issue #77) to do this, you must replace
         that program (CLOCKWRX.EXE) with GOSSAMER.EXE.
