NUMTEST - Randon number groups generator for morse practice
Version - 1.0
Author - Roy Sainsbury
Syntax - No parameters required
File - NUMTEST.EXE
INTRODUCTION
Numtest is a short program which allows you to generate random groups of
numbers as used for the current morse test. These can be displayed on-screen,
printed, or output to a file for loading into a Word-Processor program so you
can, for instance, use larger print or bold typeface.
Each test consists of 10 groups of five numbers, and you may have from 1 to 255
tests at a time.
NOTE: In view of the recent decision to change the morse test, the output from
this program will not represent typical test material after the date of change-
over.
USE
Simply enter NUMTEST at the DOS prompt. The program will ask you for the
number of test you want, which can be in the range 1 to 255, or 0 (or a blank
line) to quit. Next, you are asked if you want output to Screen, Printer or
File. Press S, P or F as required. Note that S is default if you press ENTER.
Screen output consists of upto 7 tests per screen. Press SPACE for the next
set, or ESC to cancel. The program returns to DOS after the last screen.
Printer output is continuous until the chosen number of tests has been printed.
If you have a single-sheet printer, select an appropriate number of tests to
fit on the page and run the program the required number of times to get the
required number of tests. to calculate this, take the page length in inches
and divide by the number of lines per inch (usually 6) then divide by three.
File output is the same as for printer output. You can now load the file
(which is pure ASCII) into a Word-Processor so you could enlarge the print, use
boldface or whatever. You can also use it to print multiple pages of tests
from one run of the program.
