Our competitors said we were crazy and the potential customer
base is suspicious! Just like the TM DEMO DISK at $1.00! When
you see everything on this TIMEMASTER BATCHLRN Disk you abso-
lutely WILL KNOW HOW SMART YOU ARE!
You are in for a treat in working with this disk. We have in-
cluded TWENTY-SIX working programs PLUS 31(!)batch processing
.HLP files. Oh yes, you are going to learn "BATCHING"!!
We've seen most of the fancy programs (even some very B-A-D)&
looked at the very expensive software advertising.Without ex-
ception they all lack the same thing--a "FEEL" for t-e-a-c-h-
i-n-g understandeably!When you finish BATCHLRN you WILL know!

Just for fun, and when you finish this read file type:D <ret>
and see what happens! Then type:SDIR26 /6 <ret>! SUPER PGMS!
We know that SOON you'll be convinced that TIMEMASTER and the
word S-I-M-P-L-I-F-I-E-D are synonymous! If that has not yet
HAPPENED it will SOON !! For a long time we've been convinced
that things in the world of computing can sometimes be >OVER-
complicated,even HARD TO COMPREHEND.We strive for simplicity.
EASE of understanding is OUR GOAL in TIMEMASTER's SYSTEM(c).
Be SURE to see >TMORDER.SEE in INFO/sub-dir. It will help you
to become familiar with the most popular programs we have on
the market. You will notice the prices are extremely low. We
will try to always keep them that way! We CAUTION you,however
that many of these prices on this disk list are>>INTRODUCTORY
in nature. For your sake (and ours) we would urge you to take
advantage of this.You can be assured no better software value
exists anywhere on the market today!
After you have completed review of this README file you will
proceed step-by-step as indicated on the next page.

>>>Getting into the TIMEMASTER BATCHLRN SYSTEM(c)<<<
S-T-E-P B-Y S-T-E-P
1. Review THIS ENTIRE read file,using the PrtScr function to
copy off the keyfile lists which will be coming up short-
ly (You will need these for reference in file reviews).
2. BEFORE you attempt to use the computer disk>>>>>>>M A K E
A B A C K - U P C O P Y <<<<<<<<<! Work from this back-
up copy.NEVER work from the original!Add your COMMAND.COM
DOS'FIND.EXE,MORE.COM and any other DOS files YOU use. We
know you will also need CHKDSK (and maybe some others)!
3. YOU ARE READY TO START---TYPE:BATCHLRN (and you're off!)
4. After BATCHLRN review the entire contents of the computer
disk. This is the "familiarity run".Use either the "type"
DOS command or any document preview program for any ASCII
type files. Execute the commands @ the prompt for others.
5. You may want to transfer this information to a HARD DISK.
If so, you will review everything from that SOURCE.
REVIEW files ending in .BAT with .DOC files to match.
Type the FILE name (not .BAT) and IT WILL DO ALL THE WORK!

INFORMATION Sub-Directory {INFO}
TIMEMASTER incorporates into these files some of the in-
formation files you will need for reference. We created
a sub-directory by typing "md\info". >REFER to it by ty-
ping"cd\info". We transfered to this directory ALL files
w/the extension.DOC. This will keep all your information
files separate. Add YOUR OWN.INF files as they are made.
ON THIS Disk an INFO\SD EXISTS. On this Disk INFO is loaded!
THESE ARE THE DATA FILES ON THIS DISK WHICH WILL GIVE
SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION YOU WILL WANT TO KNOW
ALL SAMPLE .BAT FILES ARE LOCATED THERE.
THEY ARE IN A SUB-DIRECTORY TO KEEP THE ROOT DIR. MANAGEABLE!

N╒We`ve had a lot of mediocre to "bad" experiences with man-╕
O│uals & tutorials. Program disk directions we recently re-│
T│ceived made no sense at all.We had to write the author for│
E╘instructions! With TIMEMASTER we hope that "can't" happen.╛
...that's why we went into electronic publish-
ing and the User-Supported Software concept...
++++++USER-SUPPORTED-SOFTWARE+++++
While no further charge is made for these disks, the concept
of"User-supported software"is what makes TIMEMASTER possible.
Jim Button coined the term with PC-File. This concept allows
low-cost software to be made available. If you agree and find
TIMEMASTER helpful we urge you>>>TO BECOME a REGISTERED USER.
