RUNNING SLIMMER --------------- Slimmer is started with the command SLIMMER . It has a command line feature that allows you to enter your name on the same line when you start the program. For example, I could start the program with the command "SLIMMER George". The Slimmer program will normally be installed in a subdirectory called SLIM30. (During installation, you have the option of selecting the drive and subdirectory of your choice). The demo files included with Slimmer are for "Slim". You can view the sample data by either typing "demo" to activate the DEMO.BAT file, or by typing in "SLIMMER Slim". From the DOS prompt, you would normally start Slimmer by first going to the drive where Slimmer resides (C:) changing directories to the Slimmer subdirectory (CD\SLIM30), then entering the SLIMMER command (SLIMMER). To automate this process, create a BAT file called S3.BAT and have the following lines in it: C: cd\slim30 slimmer george You would, of course, change the three lines to include your drive, sub- directory, and name. Place the S3.BAT file somewhere in your path (in the root of your primary hard disk for example). You can see what subdirectories are in the path by typing "path". Slimmer can then be started from any location in your computer by typing in "S3".
