ECHO This disk contains public domain and/or user supported software.
ECHO This compilation of software is just one of 3500 plus disks available
ECHO from the Public Domain Software Library. You are encouraged to pass on
ECHO copies of this disk to your friend and colleagues, but if you do so please
ECHO make sure you give then the whole thing including this file .
ECHO Unlike commercial software, no printed documentation is supplied except
ECHO with registered versions of shareware programs.
ECHO Most disks contain document files describing how to use the programs.
ECHO These document files can usually be identified by the filename or
ECHO filename extension type used. DOC, FRM, PRN, TXT, WS, MAN are the most
ECHO common, files called READ.ME etc are also document files.
ECHO You can view these files using the DOS 'TYPE' command. So to view a file
ECHO called 'READ.ME' you would enter at the keyboard:-
ECHO -
ECHO "TYPE READ.ME"

ECHO ARCHIVE FILES
ECHO Some disks contain files with a ZIP file extension. These
ECHO are special PACKED files, usually containing a number of smaller files.
ECHO They are used to save disk space. Before you can use 'Archived' programs
ECHO they need unpacking; you will need PKUNZIP.EXE to do this, which will be
ECHO on the disk. The procedure:- put new formatted disk in B,
ECHO put disk with unpacker program and the archive file in drive A, then
ECHO type as follows  ( [cr] means press the Enter key )
echo .
echo B:[cr]            to log into drive B, then:-
echo .
ECHO A:PKUNZIP A:XXXXXX[cr]
echo .
ECHO where XXXXXX is the name of the file to be unpacked. The files will be
echo extracted and put on the disk in B:

ECHO USER SUPPORTED SOFTWARE.
ECHO We urge you to support the authors of shareware programs. This is
ECHO not FREE software, but rather a 'try before you buy' system. It is
ECHO expected that if you find a program of use, you will register with the
ECHO author and send him the requested fee. this will help to allow
ECHO further and better software to be distributed in this way.
ECHO Please also check the documentation of all programs for any special
ECHO conditions of use given by the author. Please note that we are able to
echo supply from stock registered versions of several programs. Check with
echo us, we may be able to save the delays and uncertainties of ordering from
ECHO overseas authors.
