Here are descriptions of two other Shareware programs produced by
Gulf Sierra, PC-ACCOUNT and DISKLIST.
PC-ACCOUNT
PC-ACCOUNT is a personal accounting system with data base
retrieval capabilities. With it, you can discard your checkbook
ledger. Its most unique feature is its ability to print on any
personal check.
Personal checks are usually not designed for the normal line
spacing of 6 lines per inch. This program utilizes the variable
line spacing of most printers to achieve the efficiency and
accuracy of having your computer print on your checks. A utility
lets you create formats for fifteen different checking accounts.
The check is printed as soon as the transaction is completed.
The amount is printed on the check in words.
A directory is maintained of check payees and memo data to be
printed on the check, such as its purpose or your account number
with the payee. Payees are selected by number, and the name and
memo are automatically transferred to the check.
Searches can be made for all transactions against an account, for
a user defined code, for an amount, for a text string within the
comment, or for a check number. These searches can be made
through any selected consecutive months, so a full years
transactions in a specific category can be retrieved at tax time.
Recurring transactions such as loan payments and cash
distributions to accounts can be saved, edited and invoked on
command for auto entry. There is a routine that can reconcile
your bank statement swiftly. Another routine double checks the
line by line totals in your checkbook.
This system makes full use of the features of the IBM PC. All 10
function keys are used. Listings of accounts and transactions
can be output to the screen, to the printer, to a disk text file,
or to a file that can be imported by Lotus 1-2-3.
This software works on the IBM PC/XT/AT with 256K of free memory
and at least 1 double sided disk drive. It runs under PC DOS 2.0
and later versions. It is distributed on bulletin boards,
CompuServe, and by Shareware disk vendors. It comes in three
files: PCACT220.TXT, PCDOC220.EXE, and PCACT220.EXE.
DISKLIST
DISKLIST is designed to print the directory of a disk on a sheet
of paper in a format that is the size of the floppy so that it
can be trimmed to fit into the floppy disk sleeve. It will also
send the output to the screen or to a file. DISKLIST lists the
contents of all of the subdirectories on the disk. DISKLIST
provides an easy method to configure the output.
Here is an example of one output of DISKLIST. ASCII lines were
selected for this display so that it would print properly on all
printers. If your printer can print the IBM graphics characters
(lines, boxes, etc.) then you can select IBM lines and the frame
will be smooth single or double lines.

This is shown in the 5.25 inch normal format. DISKLIST can also
print it in the 5.25 inch compressed format which will contain
two columns of file names, or in the 3.5 inch compressed format,
one column.
Some of DISKLIST features are:
It has been extensively adapted to printing on laser printers. A
complete set of laser commands are supplied and can be edited for
each format. DISKLIST can download user soft fonts.
It has 33 formats that print from one to six columns of file
names with options to include date, time and file size. It can
print a border around a list to be cut out, or omit the border
for stick on labels.
It can list the files inside of ZIP, ARC, PAK, LHZ, and ZOO.
There are nine date formats to choose from for the file dates.
It can print on a clever diskflap for 3.5" diskettes.
Construction of a diskflap is described in the documentation
under the heading DISKFLAP.
Below is an example of another format for the DISKLIST output.
It can be seen on the computer screen and printed on a printer
setup for IBM graphics. If this figure is not framed in
continuous lines, then your printer is not setup for IBM
graphics. Read your printer manual to determine if it is
possible to switch to that mode. Otherwise, you can still use
DISKLIST with the ASCII character frame as illustrated on page 1.
