does one start using icon?. I downloaded every icon.exe in icon\bin
directory, but can't get even one of them to load a file. I got all of the
ipd.doc files applicable to ms-dos in the doc directory (ipd255.doc and
several others missing, I don't think I can read the .ps files). When I run
one of the icon.exe, I get instructions in an unknown tongue. I have no
idea of what all those switches mean. I copied the icon pgm listed in
tr90-6.doc, but I can't get even one of the icon.exe pgms to touch it.
Is there a doc file somewhere that tells how to get started? What files do I
need for ms-dos?
Any help will be much appreciated.
