MAGIK
Magik is a simple dialer program, which keeps a compact database of
the numbers. All functions on the MAIN menu are active in this version. The
alternate 2 menus are acessible for you to see, but neither has any active
functions in this demo. Magik has the following fields (in this order):
Code (you give this to identify the entry), phone-number, date, contact
name, company name, street address, city, state, zip, note 1, note 2. Each
line may be up to 40 characters (including note 1,2). There is a 5000 char
limit, so you can have up to 400 separate entries. (if you need more, I
suggest you copy M.FLS to say MM.FLS and have a MMM.FLS to copy back to
M.FLS).
This is the main screen.

(use ZCOLOR to change COMport)
Press letter to pick >>>
<R>edial will let you dial up to 5 numbers until one connects. You
will be beeped on the computer when you get the other end ringing, so you
can pick up your phone. When you pick up the phone, tap a key to hangup the
modem. After finished with the call, you must re-do your dial list. If
there is an incoming call, you will also be notified. After an incoming
call you can continue when done without re-entering numbers. When using
<M>odify, press [Enter] to accept a line, retype the line to change it.
The other commands are self evident. The local area code MUST be
entered when entering local phone numbers. The format for entering area
codes is '1xxx' not '1-xxx'. So I use '1617'. Long distant codes are done
the same way.

Pick up to 3 fields : field x or command >>>
On this menu you can list to screen or printer, all entries which
match the fields you select. (they must be an exact match, so if doing
states for example, be consistent either all MA or all MASS). All entries
are converted to UPPERCASE, so they will match either lower/uppercase or
mixed. You may select up to 3 fields to sort out information.
