PROGRAM ARCHIVE NAME: pcr_2.zip
PROGRAM TITLE: pc/Recall
PROGRAM VERSION: 3.0
PROGRAM BRIEF DESCRIPTION: Session-capture, screen-capture, auto-launch, paint and more
PROGRAM SHORT DESCRIPTION (10 lines):
pc/Recall 3.0 Screen capture, paint, screen
print, delayed launch, session capture, and
more! Take a snapshot of the apps currently
being used, and let pc/Recall automatically
start them the next time you start your
system. Allows capture of all or a selected
part of your screen with the Print Screen
key: save as file, edit or print. Features:
delayed launch for single/groups of apps,
run app(s) prior to shutdown, more. Win 95.
PROGRAM LONG DESCRIPTION: pc/Recall is a powerful utility which sits either in your
Windows tray, or in a tiny rollup window which you can locate to any unused portion
of your screen. With pc/Recall, you can take a "snapshot" of the programs which you
have open. The "snapshot" may be stored as a bookmark for recall later, or may be set
to automatically launch next time you start up your system.
pc/Recall also allows you to set applications to run automatically at preset
days and times, even if you are away from your computer.
And pc/Recall is perfect for those computer tasks which require you to open
several applications (e.g., to write letters to people who owe you money, you
might need your accounting package, your calculator applet and your word
processor). Instead of clicking on several icons or searching through lists of
files, you can simply click on a single pc/Recall bookmark and load all your
applications at once.
You can also custom-configure the command lines of applications (e.g., to launch
a word processor or other program with a specific file preloaded) and store
them, along with your "snapshots" in named volumes of "bookmarks." You can
switch between bookmarks or volumes with a click of the mouse.
Plus, pc/Recall can be used to quickly send the contents of your screen (or the
active window) to your printer just by pressing the "Print Screen" key on your
keyboard. Your system's screen (or a selected portion) can also be saved to an
image file on your disk -- great for grabbing images off the internet! And
pc/Recall contains its own fully functional paint program to allow you to create
and edit both screen captures and other images.
Once you've used pc/Recall, you'll wonder how you ever got along without it!
- If you've ever wanted to start up your system with the same programs running as when you last used it;
- If you ever wanted to launch an application at a preset time while you were away from your system;
- If you've ever needed to print a copy of what is on your screen;
- If you need to save a picture from your screen as an image file;
- If you've ever wanted to run a set of programs each time you shut down your Windows sessions;
- If you ever just wanted to launch several applications with a single click;
- or even if you just wanted an inexpensive but powerful alternative to "Windows Paint"
... then you need pc/Recall!

------------------------------
INSTALLING pc/Recall
------------------------------
Before you can begin using pc/Recall you must run pc/Recall's
Setup program from Windows. In most cases you cannot simply copy
the software onto your hard drive. The files on the CursorArts
distribution disks are stored in a special compressed form to
save space. The Setup program is the only way to insure that
pc/Recall is properly unpacked and installed. To install
pc/Recall, follow the steps below:
NOTE: Depending on where you obtained your copy of this
program, you may not need to run Setup - so don't panic if
you can't find it. If you have a file named PCRECALL.EXE, you
have the basic program. Just copy that file to your hard drive
in a directory of your choice and launch it from the Windows
Program Manager, File Manager or Windows 95 Explorer.
1. Start Windows.
2. If you received pc/Recall on diskette, place it into
the floppy drive now. If you downloaded pc/Recall in
archived format, use PKUNZIP to uncompress the files to a
working directory on your hard disk.
3. Activate the Windows Program Manager or Explorer.
4. Select "Run..." from the "Start" menu.
5. In the "Command Line" field enter one of the following:
- If you placed the pc/Recall diskette into drive
A:, type: A:\SETUP
- If you placed the pc/Recall diskette into drive
B:, type: B:\SETUP
- If you downloaded pc/Recall, type:
C:\DIRNAME\SETUP (Remember to replace DIRNAME with the name
of the directory where you uncompressed pc/Recall.)
6. Follow the instructions on the screen.
----------------------------------------
UNINSTALLING / REMOVING FROM YOUR SYSTEM
----------------------------------------
If you decide that you no longer wish to use pc/Recall, or if you
decide not to use pc/Recall beyond the 30-day evaluation period,
you need only use the "Add/Remove Programs" feature in the Windows
"Control Panel" folder.
To remove any shortcuts to pc/Recall which you may have created on
your Windows desktop, simply delete these by highlighting the link
icon and pressing your Delete key. To remove shortcuts on the
Windows Start menu, use your file manager to delete the PCRECALL
directory folder which is located inside the
\WINDOWS\START MENU\PROGRAMS folder.

CUSTOMER SERVICES & TECHNICAL SUPPORT
-------------------------------------
CursorArts Company provides its registered software customers with
free technical support. We also provide limited technical support
to persons evaluating our products during the 30 day evaluation
period.
We do, however, strongly encourage people to purchase a full version
of pc/Recall. Software development and support is very expensive and
we need your help if we are to continue to provide quality programs
at affordable prices. If you haven't already, please take a few
moments to register. This will assure you of eligibility for
technical support, product update notification, special discounts,
new product announcements, etc.
However, if you are experiencing problems, please contact our
technical support department so that we can solve your problem
BEFORE you purchase. Purchasing can solve many problems but it
does not always endow the program with features and functions that
do not exist.
