WELCOME TO GARLIC MAGIC
(Version 1.0)
The entire Garlic Magic program is contained in the self-
extracting program named GARLIC.EXE.
The compression method is LHARC which is copyrighted by
Haruyasu Yoshizaki (1989).
It is a very simple process to extract the program from the
compressed version. You first decision will have to be whether
you want to read the data from your hard drive or if you want to
run the program from a floppy disk.
If you want to use your hard disk, you should first make a
separate directory for Garlic Magic. (This is not imperative,
you could use any directory you already have established.)
To make a special directory on your hard drive, use the
following command:
MD GARLIC
followed by an enter. (You can name the directory any name that
suits your fancy.)
Once you have the directory established, change to it by:
CD\GARLIC
again followed by an enter. Now your prompt will show C:\GARLIC>
and you are ready to extract the program.
Place your Garlic Disk into either the a: or b: drive and
from the C:\GARLIC> prompt, type a: (or b: depending on where you
have the disk) GARLIC. Like so:
C:\GARLIC>a:garlic
followed by an enter and the program will decompress and show the
progression on your screen.
When finished decompressing, type GO followed by an enter
and the program will run.
FOR FLOPPY DISKS
If you intend to run it from a floppy disk, you will need a
3½" or high density 5¼" disk to hold all the files. Either disk
must be formatted! (A plain Jane 360K disk will work but the
program takes about 320,000 bytes so there can be no flaws on
your disk or you will run out of space. The 360K disk is not
recommended!)
Place the GARLIC MAGIC disk in a 5¼ drive and change your
drive prompt to the appropriate drive which contains your new
empty disk and enter the following command:
B:\>a:garlic
followed by enter. (Change the drive letters appropriately. If
your 5¼" drive is B and your 3½ drive is A, then the command to
type is:
A:\>b:garlic
The program will extract to your new disk. When finished,
just type GO followed by an enter to view the data.
A word of caution----don't try to decompress onto the 360K
disk the program came on -- it WILL decompress until the disk is
full and you will receive a 'write error' and it will stop.
Thanks for eyeballing the program.
To simplify your registration, there is an registation form
on this disk. To print it, make sure your printer is turned on
and type
PRINT A:REGISTER.FRM
followed by an enter. If you are asked what printer, just hit
enter and it will print. As before, change the drive letters to
the appropriate ones for your computer.
