ECHO DOS, Simply Said, Simply Done, Simply Easy!

ECHO INTRODUCTION
ECHO
ECHO Have you ever noticed that computer books and DOS books are written in a
ECHO language that can only be understood by people who already know what the
ECHO books are talking about? Well what good does that do for a Beginner?
ECHO None. That's the reason for this "book". I think you'll be able to
ECHO understand this one.
ECHO
ECHO This is not a real book, since it's not on paper, but it will serve the
ECHO purpose. In fact, it ought to be a lot easier to read than a paper book,
ECHO because it's in Hypertext form. That means that you read it on your
ECHO computer screen, and when you run across a word that you don't under-
ECHO stand, it's highlighted in a different color from the rest of the text.
ECHO Well, if you use your arrow keys to put the cursor on that word, and hit
ECHO the [Enter] key, you'll be immediately jumped to the section of the text
ECHO which explains that word. Now when you finish reading about that sub-
ECHO ject, you hold down one of the [Ctrl] keys while you hit [Enter], and
ECHO you'll be zipped right back to where you were reading before you made
ECHO that detour.
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO Now isn't that easier than looking a word up in the Index, and writing
ECHO down all the page numbers that have that word, and then finding all those
ECHO pages, and then going back to find the place where you had been before
ECHO that? Well the former description is what Hypertext is like, and this is
ECHO a Hypertext DOS manual for Beginners. It covers MS-DOS and PC-DOS ver-
ECHO versions through number 5.0, and it covers them thoroughly!
ECHO
ECHO Another way in which this program differs from a real "book" on paper, is
ECHO that you don't especially want to read this one from cover to cover,
ECHO since the subjects don't come in any particular order. Hypertext is just
ECHO meant to be jumped around in, not read straight through.
ECHO
ECHO SHAREWARE
ECHO
ECHO I'm releasing this "book" as Shareware, which is a special marketing
ECHO strategy for software, by which you get to try this out for free, and
ECHO then you only pay for it if you like it, and feel that it's worth the
ECHO price. Isn't that nice? That way you can't possibly get ripped off by
ECHO buying a piece of software that turns out not to be what you had expected
ECHO it to be.
ECHO
ECHO There is a chapter in this "book" about Shareware, if you want to know
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO more about the concept and how it works.
ECHO
ECHO If you get the registered version of this "book", which is what you will
ECHO receive if you pay the registration fee, then you will not only receive a
ECHO TSR version of the HLPURSLF command, so that you can read the "book" even
ECHO while you're inside another program, but you will also be able to change
ECHO the screen colors that the program uses! You can change them to anything
ECHO you want!
ECHO
ECHO Along with being able to receive the TSR and color-changeable version of
ECHO the "book", another benefit of sending in the registration fee is that
ECHO you will receive a copy of the whole book in a format without any of the
ECHO control codes that tell the Hypertext compiler where the "hotspots" and
ECHO "targets" should be, so that you can print it on your printer. You will
ECHO also receive notice of the next upgraded version. And of course you will
ECHO feel better about yourself, for not ripping off an author who worked
ECHO really hard and got only five hours of sleep per night for five months,
ECHO just so that you might have an easier time of learning DOS than I had.
ECHO {grin} So if you like the "book" and find it useful, and think I should
ECHO be compensated for all the work I put into it, or if you just want the
ECHO color-changeable version and the printable version, just make sure you
ECHO have your printer turned on and ready, and type REGISTER [Enter], and
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO send in the registration fee ($25) with the form that will be printed.
ECHO Your conscience and I will love you for it!
ECHO
ECHO REGISTERED VERSION
ECHO TSR VERSION VS COMMAND-LINE VERSION
ECHO
ECHO The registered version of the "book" includes a TSR, which means
ECHO Terminate-and-Stay-Resident program. Well that means that if you've
ECHO entered the command that starts it, since the last time you rebooted the
ECHO computer, then it's staying right there in your computer's memory, just
ECHO waiting for you to press the [Ctrl-/] keystroke combination, and if you
ECHO do that, then this "book" will just pop right up on your screen, right
ECHO over top of what you were doing. So it's available for use at all times,
ECHO even when you're inside another program. (Although it won't work over
ECHO top of most really graphic-intensive programs. But it will work fine
ECHO over any plain-text program.) Then after you're done looking up whatever
ECHO you wanted to know, you hit the [Esc] key and the "book" disappears, and
ECHO the screen you were working on before, appears again so you can continue
ECHO what you were doing. This TSR takes up 21.2K of RAM, by the way.
ECHO
ECHO The registered version of this program comes to you, ready to run the
ECHO command-line (non-TSR) version of the Hypertext reader. It works the
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO same way the TSR version works (the way all these instructions describe)
ECHO except that it does not stay in your computer's memory when you're not
ECHO using it. Once you hit the [Esc] key to exit the book, you can't get
ECHO back into it again until you re-execute the entire command that you used
ECHO to get into it the first time. Using the [Ctrl-/] keystroke combination
ECHO only works for the TSR version of the Hypertext reader.
ECHO
ECHO The reason the registered version of this program starts out with the
ECHO command-line version as the active one, is because that's the one used in
ECHO the shareware version, and I don't want to confuse you by having the
ECHO registered version working in a different way than the shareware version
ECHO worked, without giving you warning first. So, if you want to use the TSR
ECHO version instead of the command-line version, there are just a couple very
ECHO simple commands you need to execute.
ECHO
ECHO First, make sure the drive that contains the program files is current.
ECHO That means, if the files are on your A: drive you want your prompt to
ECHO look sort of like A} and if the files are on your C: drive you want your
ECHO prompt to look like C} or C:\} or something like that, with a C in it.
ECHO The command to make that happen is just A: [Enter] or B: [Enter] or C:
ECHO [Enter]. Next, if it's a hard drive, you want to be in the directory
ECHO where the program files are located. For example, if you installed this
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO program into a directory named SIMPLY, then execute the command CD
ECHO \SIMPLY [Enter]. Then, do the command DIR [Enter] and you should see a
ECHO bunch of filenames that have the word SIMPLY in them. That tells you
ECHO that you are indeed in the right directory. Now, execute these two
ECHO commands exactly like this:
ECHO RENAME HLPURSLF.EXE HLPURSLF.NON [Enter]
ECHO RENAME HLPURSLF.TSR HLPURSLF.EXE [Enter]
ECHO From then on, when you start the program, you'll be using the TSR version
ECHO rather than the command-line version. (To get out of the SIMPLY direc-
ECHO tory, or whatever directory you have installed the files into, and back
ECHO to the root directory, the command is CD\ [Enter].)
ECHO
ECHO If you ever want to go back to using the command-line version again,
ECHO instead of the TSR version, then just do those commands in reverse, like
ECHO this:
ECHO RENAME HLPURSLF.EXE HLPURSLF.TSR [Enter]
ECHO RENAME HLPURSLF.NON HLPURSLF.EXE [Enter]
ECHO
ECHO HOW TO USE THE HYPERTEXT READER
ECHO
ECHO The Hypertext reader that you'll be using to read this "book" with, is a
ECHO separate Shareware program named HeLPyoURSeLF, and there's more informa-
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO tion about that in the "About This Program" chapter of the "book". The
ECHO command that starts this program is C:\SIMPLY\HLPURSLF C:\SIMPLY\SIMPLY1
ECHO [Enter]. This command assumes that you have installed the program onto
ECHO your C: drive, and into a directory named SIMPLY. If that's not the
ECHO case, you use a slightly different command. For example, if you
ECHO installed the files into the BOOK directory of your D: drive, then the
ECHO command would be D:\BOOK\HLPURSLF D:\BOOK\SIMPLY1 [Enter]. Or if you're
ECHO using this program from the floppy disks instead of a hard drive, your
ECHO command might be A:\HLPURSLF A:\SIMPLY1 [Enter]. Now that is all one
ECHO command, all on one line, with a space between the two parts of it.
ECHO Throughout these instructions, I am going to use C:\SIMPLY as the direc-
ECHO tory name but if you've installed it somewhere else, you just replace the
ECHO C:\SIMPLY in the instructions with whatever drive and directory name you
ECHO have used for this program.
ECHO
ECHO As soon as you enter that command, the program will load into your
ECHO computer's memory, and it will just sit there waiting for you to hit the
ECHO [Ctrl-/] keystroke so that it knows you want it to "pop up" now. Or if
ECHO you're not using the TSR version, it will just start up right then. And
ECHO the second page of the "book" tells all about the keystrokes that you use
ECHO inside the program.
ECHO
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO Now if you're using the TSR version and you want to completely remove the
ECHO "book" from memory for a while, you type C:\SIMPLY\HLPURSLF -r [Enter]
ECHO and it will unload itself. After that if you want to read the "book"
ECHO some more, you have to enter the entire command again, C:\SIMPLY\HLPURSLF
ECHO C:\SIMPLY\SIMPLY1 [Enter], just like when you first started the program.
ECHO Until you do that, nothing at all will happen when you press the [Ctrl-/]
ECHO keystroke combination. One thing though, you can't remove this TSR from
ECHO memory if you have loaded any other TSRs into memory since the time you
ECHO loaded this one.
ECHO
ECHO If you want to be able to "hotkey" into this "book" program with the
ECHO [Ctrl-/] keystroke at any time at all, you can add the command that runs
ECHO this program to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so that the TSR will load into
ECHO memory every time you reboot the computer. Don't do that unless you are
ECHO using the TSR version though. That wouldn't work well at all.
ECHO
ECHO Every time you enter the HLPURSLF command, the file checks itself to see
ECHO if it had been altered, perhaps by a virus. If it finds that something
ECHO is wrong, it will tell you so, in which case you should copy the
ECHO HLPURSLF.EXE file from this original disk, over the top of the corrupted
ECHO file on your hard drive, using the command A:DOSIMP12 or B:DOSIMP12, and
ECHO say no to all the questions except the HLPURSLF.EXE one. Or, if you are
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO using the TSR version of the Hypertext reader, then you would want to
ECHO execute the second set of RENAME commands above, then the DOSIMP12 com-
ECHO and, saying no to all the questions except HLPURSLF.TSR, and then do the
ECHO first set of RENAME commands one more time. Just make sure you are in
ECHO the directory where the program files are when you do all that!
ECHO
ECHO If you run any anti-virus program that alters the executable file, the
ECHO program is going to stop working. Because it does its own virus checking
ECHO so when the anti-virus program makes the change to the HLPURSLF.EXE file,
ECHO it won't know that it was an anti-virus program that did that---it will
ECHO think it was a virus. Also if you use a program such as PKLITE to com-
ECHO press the HLPURSLF.EXE file while leaving it in executable form, the pro-
ECHO gram still won't work, because once again the file has been changed and
ECHO it will think that a virus is what did that.
ECHO
ECHO The HLPURSLF program is compatible with Quarterdeck's QEMM386 program,
ECHO and DOS version 5.0's LOADHIGH command, so that you can load it into the
ECHO Upper Memory Area, if your machine can handle those programs, and if you
ECHO have them.
ECHO
ECHO And remember, until you have executed those two RENAME commands mentioned
ECHO earlier, you are using the command-line version of the Hypertext reader
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO rather than the TSR version, so none of the instructions about the
ECHO [Ctrl-/] keystroke or about loading high, or unloading from memory, apply
ECHO to you yet.
ECHO
ECHO REGISTERED VERSION
ECHO CHANGING THE SCREEN COLORS
ECHO
ECHO If you have the registered version of this "book", you can change all the
ECHO screen colors that the program uses! You can change them to anything you
ECHO want! Here's how:
ECHO
ECHO C:\SIMPLY\HLPURSLF C:\SIMPLY\SIMPLY1 -tr## -tc## -sp## -sc## -nm## -er##
ECHO [Enter] would be the command to do that. The ## symbols stand for color
ECHO codes from this list:
ECHO 0 black 3 cyan 6 brown 9 lt blue C lt red F white
ECHO 1 blue 4 red 7 lt grey A lt green D lt magenta
ECHO 2 green 5 magenta 8 grey B lt cyan E yellow
ECHO The first digit of ## means the background color, and the second digit is
ECHO foreground color. So the number 49 would mean light blue letters on a
ECHO red background. And F2 would be green letters on a white background. Do
ECHO not use a number from 8 to F as a background color! Doing so will make
ECHO your foreground blink quite irritatingly! Only use 0 through 7 as back-
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO ground colors.
ECHO
ECHO Now the -tr switch is the color combination you want to use for the tar-
ECHO gets that the cursor is not on. The -tc switch is the targets when the
ECHO cursor is on them. The -sp switch is the hotspots when the cursor is not
ECHO on them, and -sc is hotspots with the cursor on them. The -nm switch is
ECHO for plain old text that is neither target nor hotspot, and -er is for
ECHO program messages such as when the program has been removed from memory
ECHO with the -r switch, or when the program thinks it has been infected with
ECHO a virus, or if the program can't find the .HYP and .INX files.
ECHO
ECHO The default colors, meaning the colors that will be used if you don't use
ECHO the command switches to change them, are -tr3F -tc0F -sp3B -sc0B -nm30
ECHO -er4F, basically white, cyan, and black. The switches that I always use
ECHO are -tr76 -tc67 -sp71 -sc17 -nm75 -erf4. But you can use whatever colors
ECHO your heart desires. Just one caution. For example, if you want to have
ECHO a blue background instead of cyan, then change all, absolutely all, of
ECHO the 3s in the default color switches to 1, and don't change any other
ECHO numbers to 1s. If you want the normal text to be red instead of black,
ECHO then change all of the 0s to 4s, and don't change anything else to 4s.
ECHO (The pattern I use works also, even though it's different from the pat-
ECHO tern of the default color switches.) Otherwise, it's really easy to goof
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO up and get some color combination like yellow on white which would be
ECHO really hard to see, or else to end up with the text-with-cursor color
ECHO being the same as the text-without-cursor color, so that you can't tell
ECHO where your cursor is at all. Of course you will want to create a batch
ECHO file or a DOSKEY macro to enter that long horrible command for you, so
ECHO you don't have to memorize it.
ECHO
ECHO REGISTERED VERSION
ECHO CHANGING THE HOTKEY (TSR version only)
ECHO
ECHO Another thing that the registered version can do, is let you choose the
ECHO keystroke combination that is used as the "hotkey" that gets you into the
ECHO program. [Ctrl-/] is the default, but you can use just about whatever
ECHO you want in case you have some other program that also uses the [Ctrl-/]
ECHO keystroke.
ECHO
ECHO Well here's how you do it. You use LS or RS for left or right [Shift],
ECHO LC or RC for left or right [Ctrl], or LA or RA for left or right [Alt].
ECHO Then you put the letter, number, or symbol you want to use. The symbols
ECHO you can use other than plain letters or numbers, are [ ] ' . and / and
ECHO then you stick your combination onto the end of a -hk switch. So, for a
ECHO couple of examples, -hklc/ -hkrc/ is the default, because it means hotkey
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO left ctrl / and hotkey right ctrl /. -hklsa would be [LeftShift-A], and
ECHO -hkrab is [RightAlt-B].
ECHO
ECHO Then you put the -hkXXX switch or switches between the filename and the
ECHO color switches, as in:
ECHO C:\SIMPLY\HLPURSLF C:\SIMPLY\SIMPLY1 -hkrab -hklsa -tr3F -tc0F -sp3B ....
ECHO └- (program) └- (text files) └- (hotkeys) └- (colors)
ECHO and that would be the command you would use to start the program with
ECHO those hotkeys and those colors.
ECHO
ECHO DISCLAIMER
ECHO
ECHO To the best of my knowledge, and that of my proofreaders, and according
ECHO to every DOS book I can get my hands on to double-check my work, and
ECHO every book I can ever remember reading, every bit of information in this
ECHO "book" is absolutely true and correct, but nevertheless, we cannot be
ECHO held responsible for any damage, data loss, lost time, or anything else
ECHO that may arise from your use of any information in this "book", or from
ECHO the use of the Hypertext reader you're using to read the "book". We are
ECHO not liable for anything other than a refund of the purchase price of this
ECHO "book", no matter what the circumstances. You use this program at your
ECHO own risk.

CLS
ECHO MISCELLANEOUS
ECHO
ECHO If you know anything about BBSs and uploading, please do distribute the
ECHO .ZIP file that came with this program, but not any other part of the
ECHO program, to any BBS you want. And give copies to all your friends who
ECHO might be interested. But it would be illegal for you to distribute any
ECHO part of the registered version to an unregistered user. If you previous-
ECHO ly had a copy of the shareware version of this program, and it included a
ECHO .ZIP file also, then please only distribute the .ZIP copy that came with
ECHO this registered copy, since it might have some slight updates since the
ECHO time of the old .ZIP file that you already had. If you ordered a share-
ECHO ware copy of version 1.2 direct from me, then all you have is the
ECHO DOSIMP12.EXE file. Go right ahead and distribute that part to whomever
ECHO you like until you get the .ZIP file with the registered version. But
ECHO don't distribute any part that's been altered in any way since I sent it
ECHO to you. Just the DOSIMP12.EXE file from the shareware version, or the
ECHO DOSIMP12.ZIP file from the registered version.
ECHO
ECHO If you ever try to change any part of any of the .HYP or .INX files, you
ECHO will most likely ruin the entire program, because the .INX files are
ECHO indexed to the .HYP files the way they were before you made any changes!
ECHO So the highlighted parts, meaning "hotspots" and "targets", will still be
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO where they used to be before you made the changes, only the text under
ECHO those highlighted spots has moved to where you moved it to. That's not
ECHO good, so don't do it. Note that the date and time on the files named
ECHO SIMPLY?.INX will change each time you use the program. I have no idea
ECHO why. I didn't write the Hypertext reader, just the text. But those
ECHO files' dates will change and that is ok. Don't worry about it. The
ECHO archive attributes for those .INX files will also be turned on.
ECHO
ECHO FILES INCLUDED IN THIS PROGRAM
ECHO
ECHO HLPURSLF.EXE The non-TSR version of the Hypertext reader you'll be using
ECHO to read the "book".
ECHO
ECHO HLPURSLF.TSR The TSR version of the Hypertext reader. In order to use
ECHO it, you have to follow the instructions above, under the subject heading
ECHO TSR VERSION VS COMMAND-LINE VERSION. Registered version only.
ECHO
ECHO SIMPLY1.HYP through SIMPLY7.HYP The actual text of the book.
ECHO
ECHO SIMPLY1.INX through SIMPLY7.INX The index files that tell the Hypertext
ECHO reader where the "hotspots" and "targets" are. Without these files,
ECHO you'll have none of the advantages of Hypertext.
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO README.BAT This file you're reading right now. Contains all the
ECHO instructions.
ECHO
ECHO REGISTER.BAT The command file that will print out a copy of the
ECHO registration form for the this program, so you can get the benefits of
ECHO the registered version, and also for the Hypertext creation program, in
ECHO case you'd like to order your own copy of it.
ECHO
ECHO DOSIMP12.ZIP The PKZIPped shareware version of the program. This is the
ECHO only part you may legally distribute to BBSs or to your friends. DO NOT
ECHO UNZIP THIS FILE ON TOP OF YOUR REGISTERED COPIES! This file is not
ECHO included in the shareware version--shareware users may distribute the
ECHO unmodified DOSIMP12.EXE file instead.
ECHO
ECHO PRNTSIMP.EXE The self-extracting compressed file that contains the
ECHO printable version of the text files. Registered version only. If you
ECHO want to print them out, type CD \SIMPLY and make sure you are indeed in
ECHO the directory that contains the program, and then type A:PRNTSIMP or
ECHO B:PRNTSIMP, according to whether your original installation disk is in
ECHO drive A: or drive B:. That will extract the printable files from the
ECHO floppy to your hard drive. Then type PRINT *.PRT and when that's all
ECHO done (a long long time and around 200 sheets of paper later), then delete
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO the printable files by typing DEL *.PRT so that those files don't sit
ECHO there forever taking up all that hard drive space, because the only thing
ECHO they're for is for printing.
ECHO
ECHO USING THIS PROGRAM FROM A FLOPPY DRIVE RATHER THAN FROM A HARD DRIVE
ECHO
ECHO If you have a 1.2M or 1.44M floppy drive, then here's how to run this
ECHO program. You just replace every reference to C:\SIMPLY\ in the instruc-
ECHO tions with A:\ or B:\ instead. For example the command to start up the
ECHO program, if you have the program disk in drive A:, would be A:\HLPURSLF
ECHO A:\SIMPLY1 or if A: is your current drive, meaning that your prompt says
ECHO A} then you can leave out the A:\ part on the command side, but leave the
ECHO A:\ on the parameter side, and say HLPURSLF A:\SIMPLY1 [Enter].
ECHO
ECHO If you only have a 360K or 720K drive and nothing else, no other drives
ECHO at all on your system, then I'm very sorry to report that there is no way
ECHO you'll be able to use this program. You need a hard drive, or a floppy
ECHO drive or RAMdisk larger than 800K.
ECHO
ECHO IF YOU DON'T HAVE A HARD DRIVE
ECHO
ECHO This "book" is written mostly for people who have a hard drive. If you
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO don't have one, well, life will be pretty difficult. Throughout this
ECHO book and throughout your computer usage, you always have to remember that
ECHO in order for DOS to execute an external command (that is, the commands
ECHO other than the ones which are inside the COMMAND.COM file like COPY and
ECHO DIR), it has to have access to the executable command file on the disk.
ECHO Without a hard drive, it's not all that easy to give DOS this access to
ECHO the command files. If you have two floppy drives, you can keep your DOS
ECHO disk in one drive, have that drive on your PATH, and keep the files you
ECHO are working with, in the other drive. If you only have one floppy drive
ECHO and no hard drive, then remember that DOS always treats your drive as if
ECHO it were two drives, A: and B:, so let's say that you wanted to use the
ECHO COMP command to compare two files. Put your DOS disk into the drive, and
ECHO give the command COMP B:FILE1 B:FILE2 and DOS will read the COMP command
ECHO code into memory and ask you to put in the disk for drive B:. You put
ECHO the disk that contains the files you want to compare, into drive A:, but
ECHO DOS will be pretending that it's drive B: and it will compare the two
ECHO files. Next time you try to access drive A: after that, remember that
ECHO DOS is still pretending that the disk in drive A: is really B: instead,
ECHO so it's going to say "Please insert disk for drive A:", and if the disk
ECHO you wanted to access is already in there, then just hit any key on your
ECHO keyboard and DOS will continue.
ECHO
ECHO
PAUSE
CLS
ECHO If you have enough memory that you can spare some for a RAMdisk (even 64K
ECHO would be a help!), then you should look up that subject in the "book" to
ECHO see how to do it, and make yourself a RAMdisk and copy all of your most
ECHO often-used DOS commands to it, and put the RAMdisk on your PATH, and that
ECHO way you won't have to keep your DOS disk in your floppy drive so often,
ECHO because DOS will be able to find and execute the commands from the RAM-
ECHO disk instead of needing for them to be in your floppy drive.
ECHO
ECHO HOW TO REGISTER THIS PROGRAM

ECHO Omaha NE 68107-4048
ECHO and tell me whether you want 360K, 720K, 1.2M, or 1.44M disks, and
ECHO whether you would also like to have the printable version of the "book"
ECHO files. (Price subject to change, current as of 01/92.) And if you have
ECHO any suggestions as to how I might improve this program before the next
ECHO update, please let me know!
ECHO
ECHO If you have a printer, just enter the command REGISTER [Enter] and it
ECHO will print out a copy of the registration form for you.

ECHO TO ORDER YOUR OWN COPY OF THE HYPERTEXT CREATION PROGRAM
ECHO
ECHO If you would like to purchase the complete HLPURSLF Hypertext compiler so
ECHO that you could make your own Hypertext "book", you can send $20 plus
ECHO $2.50 for shipping and handling, and $1.40 for sales tax if you live in
ECHO California, to the author of that program at Sansaska Systems 3311
ECHO Concord Blvd Concord CA 94519. Also tell what size disk you want that
ECHO program on, and please mention that you are ordering it through this
ECHO "book" so he will know why you are only sending $20, since the regular
ECHO price is $25 and the author is offering it for only $20 to users of my
ECHO "book". (Price subject to change, current as of 01/92.)
ECHO
ECHO If you have a printer, just enter the command REGISTER [Enter] and it
ECHO will print out a copy of the registration form for you.
ECHO
ECHO TO PRINT THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ECHO
ECHO Just type COPY README.BAT PRN [Enter]. The beginning of each line of the
ECHO printout will say ECHO but that's ok, just ignore it.
