  10. Volapuk is a combination practical joke and look-busy program.  Start   
  11. the mock debugger and your memory is seemingly reconfigured, your hard  
  12. disk is diagnosed, and all errors are cleared from existence--in reality
  13. the screen messages are the only things that are changing.  If this     
  14. program were interactive, it would be menu-driven and very professional 
  15. (it will fool any onlooker).                                            
  16.                                                                         
  17. TV simulates the late-night movie "War of the Ants" (thats where the    
  18. screen ``fuzzes out'' after the national anthem).  Then, when you press 
  19. a key, the loudspeaker is silenced and the random pattern turns into a  
  20. beautiful person with the message "Dear User, I Love You."  In a few    
  21. seconds the dreamgirl/dreamboy vanishes.  The War of the Ants continues.
  22. Another keystroke takes you back to DOS.  The programs are self-testing 
  23. against viruses for security.

  29. A wisecrack response for every DOS command, for your own entertainment  
  30. or a practical joke.  Dos² is a temporary "replacement" for DOS with    
  31. some interesting responses to commands.  There are some alarming looking
  32. "error messages," but don't worry, there are no aliens, molasses, or    
  33. problems reading drive Q:.  All "system crashes" "Chinese keyboards"    
  34. etc. are imaginary and temporary, and can be ended by a keypress in some
  35. cases, or ENTER in others.  To exit Dos² you must tell your computer "I 
  36. love you".
