TOP version 1.21
----------------
TOP is a command line enhancement tool that's easy to use AND
extremely powerful. Improves almost all DOS commands without
sacrificing the command line. But TOP adds command line history and
editing, file viewing, program scheduling, aliasing, mouse support
and over 4000 lines of on line context sensitive help automatically
generated to match your DOS version. Many TOP commands can be
accessed through movable, sizable pop up windows with extensive
"drag and drop" between the windows, screen and command line. All
windows, including the help window, can be displayed while you type
at the command line! Also screen savers,customizable colors, support
for Super VGA monitors, ability to use EMS or XMS, extended wild
cards, much more. For example, the color DIR utility has over 35
options.
Requires a hard drive, DOS version 3.0+, mouse recommended. Can use
EMS, XMS, RAM disk, or hard disk for swapping.
VENDORS: see "Vendor Distribution" below.
New for version 1.21
--------------------
See HELP for !-NEW-! for complete version history
Registered users now receive a '286 and a '386 optimized version of
TOP in addition to the regular version!
Also, see !REGFORM for our limited time FREE CONSOLE window offer!
The CONSOLE window captures all text written to the screen and
displays it in a movable, sizable TOP window! With the CONSOLE
window users can scroll back and see text that went off the top of
the screen. The CONSOLE window is an optional module available only
to registered users.
TOP is now DOS 5.0 LOADHIGH compatible. Start TOP with 'LH TOP'
Vendor Distribution
-------------------
Vendors may distribute TOP without prior consent from TNC Technology
provided the following guidelines are met:
1. Converting from/to BBS distribution to/from disk copy
distribution
TOP is distributed in two forms: a BBS ready file, called
TOP111.ZIP, and an installation ready disk. TOP111.ZIP is simply
the entire contents of the installation ready disk zip compressed
into one file.
The installation ready disk contains four files:
INSTALL.BAT The TOP installation batch file
READ.ME Information about installation
VENDOR.DOC This file
TOP.DAT Every other TOP file in compressed format
To convert the installation ready disk to a BBS ready file, zip
the contents of the disk to a file named TOP111.ZIP
To convert the BBS file into an installation ready disk, unzip
TOP111.ZIP to a floppy.
2. Adding Vendor files
Vendors may add any of their own files as they see fit, but
please follow the following guidelines:
To add files to the installation ready disk, copy them to the
disk.
To add files to the BBS ready file, unzip the file, add files,
and rezip the file.
In either case DO NOT uncompress TOP.DAT. DO NOT install TOP and
then compress the resulting files. This will cause subsequent
installations to fail as INSTALL creates (or does not create)
some files based on user preference, and customizes the
installation for user convenience
3. TNC Technology requests that at least one copy of the
distribution media be sent to us so we can congratulate ourselves
and generally make merry. Please send us your catalog, flyer,
rack package etc. for our collection, and in turn we will try to
keep you updated with our latest innovative creations!
4. Vendors must demonstrate good faith in promoting the Shareware
concept, and encourage registration where possible. TNC
Technology reserves the right to refuse distribution privileges
to anyone who, in TNC Technology's opinion, does not uphold the
Shareware principle.
