║ Read Me Information - PAF Review - From File README.PRV ║
╟──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╢
║ PAF Review - Edition 93.2 - April 1993 ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
PAF Review contains descriptive information about all known
shareware and freeware utilities that work with version 2.2 of the
Personal Ancestral File (PAF). PAF is published by the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints and is widely used by
genealogical researchers to maintain records of their "roots".
Programs are included in PAF Review whether they work directly
with PAF data or indirectly through the GEDCOM files PAF uses as
an interface to other genealogical programs. These programs
generally provide new ways of displaying, printing or working with
data that resides in a PAF data base or a GEDCOM file. Although
some of the utilities might also be useful to someone who uses
another genealogical database program, the comments in PAF Review
primarily relate to their use with PAF.
There are 91 entries in this edition of PAF Review, up from 48 in
the last version. There were 44 additions, 1 deletion (because of
questions on it's shareware status), and 11 of the previous
entries have been updated to describe newer versions. Some of the
new entries are new programs but in most cases I am just "newly
aware" of them or they represent data transfer utilities that were
intentionally excluded in the previous edition.
Each file in PAF Review can be displayed on your monitor or
printed by copying the file to your printer. EXAMPLES FOLLOW:
To display this file on your monitor, use a program like Buerg's
LIST, or use the following DOS command:
TYPE README.PRV | MORE
To print this file, use the command:
COPY README.PRV PRN
PLEASE NOTE: Each of the files in PAF Review ends with the page
eject character to allow unattended printing by using the copy
command. If you print them with a program that adds an eject at
the end of each document, such as the DOS PRINT command, you will
have a blank page between each.
