INTRODUCTION
------------
PCBCalls is a duplicate of CALLS.EXE, probably the best call analyzer
for PCBoard, by Sam Smith and Warren Lauzon.
This program was built and duplicated to implement the use of PCBoard
14.5 color codes. It duplicates all functions of CALLS except the SAV
option. I removed this function because of the confusion involved with it.
Other than that, it exactly duplicates CALLS but utilizes a nicer local
screen & PCBoard 14.5 color codes.
NEW FEATURES
--------
September 24 1991 - Added the ability to redefine colors
September 23 1991 - Original release date. Version 1.0.
