The BlueLine editor is a miniature word processor you can use to write to
us with your comments, hints, tips, and descriptions of programs you are
submitting.
(Note: Since BIG BLUE DISK itself is always stuffed with programs, there is
not enough room for your comments. Besides, as you'll see in a minute, we
want you to send us the disk with your thoughts and other valuable goodies!
Therefore, you should prepare your own feedback disk.)
Do this by formatting a disk. Formatting instructions are detailed in your
DOS manual. If you wish to move the BlueLine editor to the newly formatted
disk, copy the following files:
^FBLUELINE.CHN
^FPASRUN.COM
^FRETURN.CHN
from BIG BLUE DISK to your disk. This can be done using the "Copy It" option,
or with the COPY command in DOS. (See your DOS manual for details on using
the COPY command.) Once this is done, run BlueLine with your new disk in the
drive by typing ^1PASRUN BLUELINE^0.
Once you have written your text to a disk, please send the disk to:
BIG BLUE DISK, PO BOX 30008, SHREVEPORT, LA 71130-0008.
The BlueLine text editor may be used to write and edit other text, such as
letters, memos, shopping lists, programs, etc., just like any word processor.
(Note: Any other editor or word processor program can be used to write
feedback comments for BIG BLUE DISK. The only requirements are that it
generate standard ASCII text with no imbedded formatting characters or
commands. Line length must be limited to 80 characters.)
One final point: If you have a comment or problem that requires immediate
attention, use an old-fashioned paper note. This will attract our attention
and will be handled immediately. Disk feedback is processed in batches, so
there may be a delay in handling your letter.
