- Gentlemen:
-
- This disk contains updates to three of my programs which I hope you
- will use to update your catalog. For space reasons, the programs are
- stored as self-extracting LHarc files. You will need to run the .exe
- files to extract all the files that are part of each program. All
- provided files must be included on your distribution disk, though you
- may add additional text files (read.me) and start-up batch files
- (go.bat). I hope these programs will find a place in your catalog. I
- would appreciate receiving a copy of the catalog once the programs
- are included. If you have any questions, please call me at
- 508-872-5259.
