- OVERVIEW
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
- The PC Demonstration System (PDS) provides a way for you to make
- program demonstrations, prototypes and other types of presentations.
- There are three programs in the PC Demonstration System:
-
- Screen Formatter - which is used to create the screens for your
- presentation.
-
- Demo Maker - which is used to create a "sequence file" that
- describes the order in which your screens will be displayed, along
- with the valid keys that can be used to branch within your
- presentation.
-
- Demo Run - which takes your screens and your sequence file and
- "runs" your presentation.
-
-
- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-
- The PC Demonstration System requires a 256K or larger IBM PC, PC-XT,
- PC-AT or IBM PC "compatible" and DOS 2.0 or later. PDS works only in
- 80 column mode with either the color or monochrome display adapter.

-
- Pressing F2 at the main menu will allow you to change the current
- drive/directory. The current drive/directory will be displayed. Key
- in the changes you desire and press Enter. All loads and saves of
- screens will now be made from the drive/directory you entered. If you
- do not wish to change the drive/directory after pressing F2, press
- Escape (Esc). The current drive/directory will remain unchanged.
-
-
- LOAD SCREEN FROM DISK (F3)
-
- Pressing F3 at the main menu will allow you to load a previously saved
- screen into the edit workspace, where you will be able to modify it.
- The last screen accessed by Screen Formatter in this session will be
- displayed. Key in the name of the screen you wish to load and press
- Enter. The screen will be loaded from disk into the edit workspace.
- If you do not wish to load a screen after pressing F3, press Escape
- (Esc). The edit workspace will remain unchanged.
-
-
- SAVE SCREEN TO DISK (F4)
-
- Pressing F4 at the main menu will allow you to save the screen
- currently in the edit workspace to disk. The last screen accessed by
- Screen Formatter in this session will be displayed. Key in the name
- you desire to give the screen and press Enter. The screen will be
- saved to disk, but will remain in the edit workspace. If you do not
- wish to save the screen after pressing F4, press Escape (Esc). The
- screen will not be saved to disk.
-
-

- TEXT ENTRY AND EDIT KEYS
-
- Text entry in edit mode is relatively simple. Put the cursor where
- you want the text and start typing. Remember, Screen Formatter is not
- a word processor, so don't expect sentences to wrap around, although
- the cursor does wrap-around, both vertically and horizontally.
- Pressing the Alt key plus a letter key will produce a large block
- letter. Also, Alt and the numeric keypad can be used to enter
- graphics characters. Most of the edit keys function as you would
- expect them to function. Tabs are set every 10 characters for use by
- the Tab and Shift-Tab keys. Home puts the cursor at column position
- 1, row position 1.

- DEMO RUN
-
- STARTING DEMO RUN
-
- AT the DOS prompt, type "DR" (without the quotation marks) followed by
- the name of the sequence file to be executed, e.g.
-
- A>DR filename.ext
-
- Your presentation will begin executing, starting with the first
- (lowest numbered) sequence record in the sequence file.
-
- If an error occurs during Demo Run processing, the program will abort
- with an error message indicating the type of error. Typical errors
- are: the sequence file cannot be found, a screen file cannot be found,
- or a branch to an undefined sequence number is specified in the
- sequence file.

- TIPS ON USING PDS
-
- The following are tips on the use of the PC Demonstration System
- programs:
-
- SCREEN FORMATTER
-
- If you have an 80 column printer, don't forget to put your printer in
- 132 column (compressed) mode before loading Screen Formatter.
-
- When creating screens, it is best to first enter text, then draw
- boxes, then add color, and finally, blink desired areas.
-
- Remember...help is only a keystroke away, no matter what function you
- are performing. Use F1.
-
-
- DEMO MAKER
-
- When entering Keys and Branches, always enter the Key ANY as the last
- entry in your list. When Demo Run receives a keystroke, it starts at
- the top of your Key list to find a match. ANY matches all keystrokes.
-
- Enter Keys and Branches in consecutive order. When Demo Maker finds a
- blank Key entry, all Key and Branch entries following it are made
- blank.
-
- If Delay time is set at a value other than 99, ensure that a TIM entry
- is made in your Key list. If Delay time expires and a TIM Key entry
- is not found, an undefined branch error will occur.
-
- Again, don't forget F1.
-
-
- GENERAL
-
- The two most important keys to keep in mind when using Screen
- Formatter and Demo Maker are F1 and Escape (Esc). If you're not sure
- what to do next, press F1 for help. If you don't like what you're
- doing at the moment, press Escape (Esc).
-
- Use the sequence file PCDEMO.DMO provided on your distribution disk as
- an example when first getting started at making your own demos. Study
- of it will give you some ideas on how to use the PC Demonstration
- System. (However, you'll only be able to look at the first 10 records
- with the evaluation system.)

- ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
-
- The PC Demonstration System was written using Turbo Pascal by Borland
- International, Inc. We consider Turbo Pascal to be the best
- development system, bar none, for programs of this size or smaller.
-
- The Turbo Power Tools by Blaise Computing, Inc. are also used through-
- out the programs. Though we had written many of the procedures
- included in the Power Tools before we ordered the package, we have
- found no better collection of library routines in terms of consistency
- and organization.
-
- During development, extensive use was made of the TurboPower
- Programmer's Utilities by TurboPower Software. These utilities are
- highly recommended for programmers and non-programmers alike.
-
- To produce listings of our Turbo Pascal programs, we use the public
- domain LIST.COM program written by Raymond M. Romanowski of Santa Ana,
- CA. There is no finer Turbo Pascal list program to be had.
