4. Suggested Brief program Description:
Configurable DOS-prompt Clock/Alarm resident

Date stamp at cursor; international support;
UMB selfloading, WINDOWS awareness, and 086/
286/386/486 optimized releases.
* Release information: UnZIP and enter READ.
5. Suggested long program Description:
dAC is a DOS memory-resident alarm clock that displays the time at the DOS
prompt when in video text mode. The user can specify the screen attribute,
position, and format of the display; a hotkey for toggling the display off
or on; and an alarm time and associated bell parameters.
The clock is enabled only while DOS is waiting for command-line input (DOS
prompt); the hotkey can be used to override the DOS-prompt toggled status.
Such a DOS-prompt gating prevents interference with disk(ette) operations.
The resident operation can be changed on the fly by executing dAC with new
parameters from the DOS prompt (or batch file) or via the DOS enviroment.
The dAC resident can also include a tiny, additional module for poking the
current date in the keyboard buffer so as to appear at the cursor position
as if it had been entered by the user, if the hotkey were pressed when the
<Scroll Lock> key is engaged. The resident automatically becomes inactive
in BIOS/VESA graphics modes, including WINDOWS, and active again once text
mode is resumed. The default time and date formats and the unit separators
are selected from the current country DOS information data; these data can
be modified by the user.
The program requires MS-DOS version 3 or higher (or a compatible operating
system) and a Real Time Clock compatible with the IBM AT-standard. It does
not interfere with WINDOWS or with any other application in graphics mode.
See DAC.NEW for a description of what is new in the current version.

PC-compatible with video adapter compatible with the IBM PC standard.
Real Time Clock chip compatible with the IBM AT standard
MS-DOS version 3+ or compatible operating system.
7. Registration:
$25.00 (plus $3.50 NorthAmerica, $7.00 overseas S/H).
See DAC.REG for registration form and terms.
