SCROLLit 1.3 Advanced Scrollback Buffer November 2, 1992
Introduction - What is SCROLLit?============================================
SCROLLit is not public domain or free software, but is being
destributed as shareware.
SCROLLit is a memory resident (TSR) program that captures lines of text that
scroll off the top of the video screen and stores them in compressed form in
an XMS, EMS or conventional memory 'scrollback' buffer of a size specified
by the user. SCROLLit can then be activated or 'popped up' over any
non-graphical program when the scroll lock key is pressed. Once activated,
SCROLLit will let you scroll back through this saved information, line by
line or page by page. SCROLLit has a fast search capability as well as a
block-write feature that allows you to mark a block of lines for writing to
a disk file or sending to your printer.
For details on how to run SCROLLit, please refer to the SCROLLIT.DOC
documention file.
QUICK START=================================================================
SCROLLit can be installed with a 100k buffer by typing:
SCROLLit 100
SCROLLit can then by activated by pressing the Scroll Lock key. Once
activated, press the F1 key for a quick command summary. When SCROLLit is
installed, the Scroll Lock key no longer toggles your Scroll Lock light on
and off. Instead press Alt-Scroll Lock.
SCROLLit can be removed from memory by typing:
SCROLLit /U
See Appendix 3 in SCROLLIT.DOC for a command line summary.
Special Cases===============================================================
Qmodem/Telix/Procomm users: You will need to configure your communications
software to perform BIOS screen writing rather than the default direct
screen writing. This will allow SCROLLit to intercept and save screen
scrolling. If SCROLLit isn't capturing your scrolling lines, chances are you
need to switch to BIOS screen writing. See Appendix 1 in SCROLLIT.DOC.
Desqview users: SCROLLit is Desqview aware. You will need to load SCROLLit
in the Desqview window(s) where you want to capture scrolling. See Appendix
2 in SCROLLIT.DOC.
The Last Byte Memory Manager Users: Some versions of TLB's HIGHTSR program
appear to have difficulty with TSR parameters beginning with a slash (/).
SCROLLit now accepts either slashes or dashes (-). For example, to install
SCROLLit in high memory with a 100k EMS buffer, type:
HIGHTSR SCROLLIT 100 -E
