Cardfile was written as an application to save cards into a computer storage
data base. It was written for a specific application but it was felt by the
author that generalizing it to allow changes would be far better than hard
coding prompts and displays. The program is very memory efficient as it can
run in as little as 128K of free memory.
It is not too difficult to come up with screen prompts and displays that can
be useful for saving data with. The program automatically handles the
manipulation of the data and the data can be stored in a format that can be
accessed by a word processor (by using the type 6 prompts that auto-generate
carriage return/line feed sequences).
This program is being distributed as a self expanding .exe file that contains
both the program and examples ways it can work. The compression into a file
in this format was done by NoGate Consulting's PAK210 program.
The author hopes that you will find uses for this program and that when you
do you will fulfil the terms of the agreement by sending the author $20 to
help offset the cost of its development. Note that this program is not free
but is developed as as a pay if you use program. I.e. if you use it you
should pay for it.
Note also that the author of the program and the program itself are not
responsible for any problems that are caused by its use. Every effort was
made to make the program function properly but it is beyond the author's
ability to guarantee with absolute certainty that it will cause no problems.
Therefore any use of it is at the users risk and not the programs author.
This program, when expanded, should come with the following files:
cread.me this file
cardfile.exe the executable program
cardfile.dat cardfile setup save file
manual.doc copy of the help screens
*cardt.bat batch file to run cardfile with mchs database
mchs.cfg an example of a large prompt file
mchs.cda the corresponding data file
telefone.cfg a telephone directory data base
*phone.bat batch file to run the phone data base
phone.cfg another one with carriage return endings
phone.cda the data file associated with phone.cfg
telefvga.cfg a prompt file that uses large screens (VGA required)
log.cfg example of amateur radio log
*log.bat runs Cardfile with the log
*labels.bat database with labels..batch file to run it
labels.cfg the prompt file for the labels data base
labels.cda the data file for the labels data base
slabels.cfg runs labels differently...
*demo.bat runs all the demo .cfg files
* means a batch file that can run a demo Cardfile program version
