- Welcome to CheckMate-GL! This is the initial release. Before you begin,
- you will need to know a few things.
-
- System requirements: IBM PC/XT/AT/jr or compatible
- 256K RAM
- 2 DSDD Disk Drives (or Hard Drive)
- IBM DOS (or MS-DOS) 2.0 or above
-
- Make sure that you have a CONFIG.SYS file on your boot disk and that you
- have the following statement in the file:
-
- FILES=20
-
- CheckMate-GL will attempt to open several files simultaneously, and will
- crash if you don't have a sufficient number of file handles declared. See
- your DOS reference manual for more details on the CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- You must INSTALL CheckMate-GL by using CMGLINST.COM and tell it where to
- look for (or create) its data files. There will not be enough room on a
- single DSDD 360K floppy disk for all the program files and the data. Run
- CMGLINST and indicate where you want your program files to reside (usually
- drive A) and where you want your data files to reside (usually drive B).
- Insert a formatted disk for data in drive B and you are ready to begin.

- NOTE:
-
- To help you evaluate Checkmate-GL, we have included an abbreviated version
- of the user's guide. It is contained in the file MANUAL.ARC.
-
- The disk-based manual for CheckMate-GL is extensive (120K+) and is ARCed
- so that it will fit on the disk. To unarc it, copy MANUAL.ARC to a blank
- formatted disk and use a program such as ARC-E.COM or PKXARC.COM to unpack
- it. These programs are available from numerous bulletin boards and user's
- groups. For copyright reasons, we cannot include one directly with
- CheckMate-GL.
