                           DiskMaster
               Copyright 1985 by Robert W. Lennox

   The DISKMASTER utility prints diskette labels on 5" x 1 7/16" label
stock. This size label just fits  on the top of a  standard 5 1/4 inch
diskette. The program supports EPSON, IBM, and OKIDATA printers.  Many
user options are provided. The next few HELP pages describe them.
FUNCTION KEYS -
  F1  - May be pressed at any time to access the  help function.  EXIT
            from HELP returns to the program where you left off.
  F2  - Allows the user  to change  system defaults.  The defaults are
            further described in subsequent HELP screens.
  F3  - Reads the directory from the disk in the  default drive.  NOTE
            that some diskettes have unreadable directories.
FUNCTION KEYS (cont) -
  F4  - Save comment line #3 to DMASTER.CMT  file.  This file is auto-
            matically read at start of job if that option is chosen.
  F5  - Print diskette label for information currently entered and re-
            trieved from disk.
  F6  - Clears all non-default  data from the  screen.  This is a good
            way to "start over".
FUNCTION KEYS (cont) -
  F7  - Exit from HELP. This key is only active when you are in HELP.
  F10 - Exit to DOS.




DISK MASTER FILES
  Several files are used by this program.  If you have a hard disk you
  should load the entire  distribution disk to a  sub-directory on the
  the hard disk. No copy protection schemeis used so  you  should copy
  as follows:
               A>COPY *.* C:\[directory name] /V

DISK MASTER FILES (cont.)
  If you have a two drive floppy disk  system make a copy of  the dis-
  tribution diskette using DISKCOPY.  Do not place a write protect tab
  on the copy since the program must write on the disk when running.
  If you have a single diskette system make a copy as described above.
  Place the copy in  drive  A  and start the program.  When requested,
  put the disk to be read in A. Place the system disk back after read.
OPTIONS

  DEFAULT DRIVE - The  drive  letter of  the diskette drive the system
    will use to read the directory of the disk to be  labeled.  If you
    have a single  diskette  system this should be "A".  If you have a
    a two diskette drive system this should be "B".

OPTIONS (cont.)

  READ COMMENT - Comment line #3 is special.  It can  be automatically
    read (DMASTER.CMT) and  loaded on the screen each time  the system
    the program is started. Allowed valued are YES or NO. You may make
    changes to comment line #3  permanent by  keying a new comment  #3
    line and pressing F4.
OPTIONS (cont.)
  PRINTER - Three printers are supported. The name of the printer used
    must be supplied in this field.  The printers are  EPSON,  IBM and
    OKIDATA.  If your  printer has  control code  sequences compatible
    with one of these printers type in the name  of that  printer.  If
    you need to make the program work with a different printer, obtain
    a copy of the source code.
OPTIONS (cont.)

  DEFAULT NUMBERING - The system allows you to specify a starting num-
    ber that will be printer on the diskette label. Following printing
    the number will be incremented by one and rewritten  to the  disk.
    The number can be reset at any time to any number by choosing F2.

OTHER DEFAULTS
  The following  fields assume  default  values if  nothing is entered
  when the field is requested:

        NUMBER  - default          FORMAT            - DSDD
        FORMAT  - 9-SEC            OPERATING SYSTEM  - NONE
        DATE    - System Date
