PROXY v1.1
The following files are provided with the Proxy system:
PROXY.EXE BINTREE.PRX
PROXY.DAT TOPSORT.PRX
PROXY.INI PRIMES.PRX
PROXY.DOC CROSS.PRX
PRNTDOC.EXE EMAIL.PRX
PRINTDOC.BAT DATAFLOW.TXT
FINANCE.PRX READ.ME
QUICKSRT.PRX
Copy the files into a subdirectory of your choice. To install
Proxy, move to that subdirectory, type
proxy install
and press <enter>.
The install process produces a new file PROXY.WKS and ends with
the message:
loading-ended
To run Proxy, type
proxy
After the copyright notice, the following will be displayed
on your screen:
Continue? : (run) / (exit)
>
Type (run) and press <enter>. Make sure that run is enclosed by
parentheses. A prompt ? will be displayed. You may now type
expressions and function definitions (see the file PROXY.DOC).
To print out the documentation, type printdoc and press <enter>.
To get help at any prompt, type: help; and press <enter>.
To exit the interpreter from any prompt, type exit; and press <enter>.
Whenever the Continue? : (run) / (exit) prompt appears, you may exit
the interpreter by typing (exit) and pressing <enter>.
Note - If you change to a new memory mapping scheme, for example,
upgrading to DOS 5.0, it will be necessary to re-install Proxy.
However, before doing this, erase the file PROXY.WKS. Also, you
should not load any TSR programs before loading Proxy.
Feedback, bug reports, comments and suggestions are solicited and
encouraged.

To register Proxy via CompuServe, GO SWREG, select option 2 (Register
Shareware), and search either by Registration ID 574, by File Name
PROXY.ZIP, or by User ID 70262,1074. Registration entitles you to
support by phone, mail, or CompuServe email, and a free upgrade to
Version 1.2. This upgrade adds a (non-preemptive) tasking facility
to Proxy which allows the developer to model concurrent and distrib-
utive systems, and to execute data flow modules. A simple example
of this will be found in the file DATAFLOW.TXT.
Version 1.2 adds three new commands: dos, which executes DOS commands
and shells to DOS; save, which saves the workspace (hence all Proxy
functions which have been defined in a session) in a file; and restore,
which loads a saved workspace. The use of save and restore speeds the
loading process of previously defined functions.
Version 1.2 can only be obtained by registration. After registering,
please send email to the author specifying the format desired (5-1/4"
or 3-1/2").
