- OVERVIEW
-

- PC-KAT by sharing unmodified copies of the PC-KAT basic system
- diskette. The PC-KAT system also includes a PC-KAT add-on, by purchase,
- diskette. Copying for others of the PC-KAT add-on diskette is prohibited
- by Copyright law.
-
- If you find PC-KAT useful, we encourage you to register your copy.

-
- ->PC-KAT add-on programs (KATOPT?? programs), see below.
-
- ->Latest PC-KAT basic system provided if a later version # exists.
-
- ->Right to buy future PC-KAT add-ons w/latest version for $15 each
- time.
-

- Register by mail. Use the order form below. You can create a copy of
- this form by typing: KAT -O and pressing ENTER. Minnesota orders add
- sales tax. Quantity discounts available for corp., classroom or group
- use.
-
- The next subsection covers, among other topics, forthcoming features in
- PC-KAT add-on, by purchase, software modules. The base, free, PC-KAT
- software intends to be enhanced too. One eventual planned enhancement
- will be to improve KATLOOK so that same spelled filenames will be
- displayed in inverse chronological order without having to choose output
- file option and to run KATSORT at DOS level.
-
- You can get a free version of PC-KAT from friends or local user groups,
- which have received or ordered their own version, or you can order
- direct from Applied Foresight. If you don't want to register but just
- want the latest or a newer version of the PC-KAT base system diskette,
- you can order direct for $12.50 from Applied Foresight. The $12.50 will
- entitle you to:
-
- ->The latest version of the PC-KAT base system diskette;
-
- ->Mailing notifications of update releases as well as other forthcoming
- DB-SHARE products.
-
- ->$12.50 discount coupon applicable against the cost of any future PC-KAT
- registration enrollment.
-
- SAVE !! Get your order in before April 1, 1986, and along with
- everything else, you'll receive a $15 discount coupon instead of a
- $12.50 discount coupon.
-
- PC-KAT's source code can be purchased separately for $12.50. A copy of
- the basic system source files in C & Assembler (some public domain code
- by Jim Rauser is included). The password checking subroutine is not
- provided with the purchase and the source code for DB-VISTA database
- calls must be purchased from Raima Corp., 12201 SE Tenth St., Bellevue,
- WA 98005.
-
- Applied Foresight reserves the right to adjust these prices in the
- future.
-
- If you already have a PC-KAT version, specify what version you have. If
- you already have the most recent version, although you will still get
- the latest version of PC-KAT existing at the time of your order, in
- addition, you'll get at no extra charge, the next release of the PC-KAT
- base system diskette.
-
- REGISTRATION BENEFITS
-
- After June 1, 1986 add-on, by purchase, program(s) will be available.
- These programs will be identified by the spelling KATOPT??.EXE. All then
- existing KATOPT*.EXE program(s) will be shipped for a given order. Those
- users who have registered prior to May 1, 1986, will receive a free &
- new release copy (their original order provides them with the other
- benefits of registration). Orders placed after May 1, 1986 will receive
- the new release with add-on program(s) when it is ready to ship.
-
- You must submit your name as you want it to appear everytime the
- software is ran against your database, as the registered program(s) are
- individualized with this name. Illegally giving a friend a copy, will
- embed your name permanently into his database, which he'll see everytime
- he runs PC-KAT. You must provide your first & last name. Multiple-copy
- license purchasers excluded from this requirement.
-
- 1986 plans for PC-KAT add-on programs include the following features.
- Any add-on program diskette released will be a cumulative release.
-
- ->print a report of diskettes with nothing but 2nd generation or older
- filenames on them; -in other words, 'an aging analysis' report which
- prints scratch disk canditates.
-
- ->print a report of those filenames which are the most current for that
- specific filename; -in other words, a disk reconstruction report aid
- telling you what is and where are your most recent backed up files.
-
- ->automatically register the fact if diskette being cataloged is a DOS
- backup diskette and to automatically register the BACKUP sequence
- number, which DOS carries in the BACKUPID.@@@ file.
-
- ->Provide a report which most users write in and request. If you want
- something enhanced or added to PC-KAT, write in your suggestion.
-

- not be cashed until the two week period your processed order is shipped.
