Product: The GO Utilities
Version: 2.30 (June 1994)
Copyright: (C) 1986, 1994 by Pinnacle Software
Author: Timothy Campbell (Pinnacle Software)
Purpose: Tools for DOS software authors, including installation programs
Description: "GO" is a set of utilities for DOS software developers. The
central utility is an installation program which enables you to
use any compression program (e.g. PKZIP, LHA, ARJ, etc.) to save
room on your disk. The GO package also includes utilities for
developing effective installation oriented batch files, complete
with mouse-sensitive menus. Another utility enables you to mass
copy diskettes.
The installation program serves to add features to the
compression programs and simplifies use. Your instructions to
the user are simple: "Place the diskette in the A: drive, type
A:GO, and press Enter". Everything after that is explained
clearly to the user. GO carries out the installation process in
a helpful manner, asking for permission to continue if a
directory already exists, or searching the user's hard drive for
the compression program if you forgot to include it on the disk.
Up to 9 program products can be placed on the installation disk.
Multiple disk installations are supported.
