PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Daily Gold provides a refreshing spiritual uplift each time it is run. With
Daily Gold, a Bible verse, Bible trivia question and calendar are just a mouse
click away. Bible verses are from the New International Version.
REQUIREMENTS
You must have either the runtime version or full version of Toolbook from
Asymetrix to run this program. At the present time (December, 1990) the
runtime version of Toolbook is included with Windows 3.0.
You must also have the hardware necessary to run Windows 3.0:
an 80286 or better, a hard drive, mouse, etc. See a Windows manual if more
information is necessary.
RUNNING DAILY GOLD
To run Daily Gold, you will first need to install it. Insert the program disk
in the A> drive and at the A:> prompt type "install" (no quotes) and hit
the <enter> key. This will run a batch file which will create the directory
c:\daygold on your hard drive and then copy the program files to it. If you
want the program to be in a different directory, do not use the install.bat
file. Instead, create the directory yourself, and then copy all the files
from the Daily Gold distribution disk to that directory. One way to do this
is to use the file manager in Windows 3.
After you're done installing the program, there are several ways to launch it.
My favorite is this: go to the c:\ root directory or to the c:\windows
directory and then start Windows with this command:
win c:\daygold\daygold.tbk
Enter the command exactly as shown. If you have installed Daily Gold in a
different drive or directory, or if you have Windows 3.0 in a different place,
make adjustments accordingly. When you're done with the program, don't close
it but select minimize from the control panel (The bar at the upper left hand
corner of the program window.) Then Daily Gold will become an icon at the
bottom of the screen, ready to be opened any time you want to double click it.
The last applies to all the methods of opening the program.
A second way to launch Daily Gold is to use the Windows file manager. Select
the file manager icon, the c: drive, the \daygold subdirectory, and then the
file daygold.tbk. (Double click the mouse to select.)
A third way to launch Daily Gold is from the Windows Program manager. Select
file run from the menu, and then type c:\daygold\daygold.tbk in the input
window, and click OK.
A fourth way to launch Daily Gold is to open it from the file menu of another
Toolbook program.
A fifth, and probably the best way to do it, although you must be sure of what
you're doing, is to open the win.ini file with notepad and include the
statement "load = c:\daygold\daygold.tbk" in the appropriate location. This
way Daily Gold will become a permanent part of your Windows environment.
SHAREWARE
This program is shareware. Please consult the Daily Gold menu item "Register"
for information about registering the program.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
If Windows gives you an error statement saying that some file was not found,
make sure that the path statement in your autoexec.bat file includes
"c:\toolbook" or whatever directory your Toolbook files are in.
If you have problems with installing it or running it, please contact the
