- echo EC - takes an Elite Commander file and gives you 1.6 million credits.
- echo If you can't reach Elite with that lot, perhaps you should be
- echo playing a different game! Note that an Elite Commander file only
- echo works if its Archive attribute is set OFF. EC does this for you
- echo automatically, but if you subsequently copy the file to another
- echo disk or sub-directory, the attribute will be set ON. You would
- echo then have to set it off again with the MS-DOS ATTRIB -A FILENAME
- echo command, where FILENAME is the name of the Commander file.
- echo.
- echo GEMDOS - provides a user-friendly shell from GEM to DOS, including the
- echo use of parameters for a DOS command. Two versions are provided,
- echo one for use from the GEMAPPS folder of a floppy in the A: drive,
- echo the other for use from the GEMAPPS folder of hard drive C:.
- echo Details in GEMDOS.DOC.

- echo ZAPPO - a pop-up sound effects program, which you can remove by resetting
- echo your PC. There are three versions of the program, one for basic
- echo XTs (XTZAPPO), one for turbo XTs like the Amstrad PCs (TXZAPPO)
- echo and one for fast ATs and 386s (ATZAPPO). The only differences are
- echo the pitch and duration of the sounds they produce.
