echo ║ The Ten Minute Demo ║
echo ║ ║
echo ╟─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╢

echo ║ Extensions for Professionals". ║
echo ║ ║
echo ║ Executing this batch file from a hard disk directory containing a copy of ║
echo ║ the programs and files on the distribution disk will result in ║
echo ║ significantly faster execution than a floppy-based demo because of the ║
echo ║ superior performance of your hard drive during disk-intensive operations. ║

echo ║ ║
echo ║ The programs demonstrated here are: ║

echo ║ DIFF - display the differences between two files ║
echo ║ SPLIT - split files into parts ║
