- PMCAT PLUS files and a few words:
-
- If you have used PmCat in the past, you will note a distinct
- similarity of the appearance of PmCat+. Rest assured this is
- intentional and great pains were taken with PmCat+ to make sure it
- happened.
-
- However, there are a few more files in the distribution archive
- than were present with PmCat.
-
- PMCATPL.EXE is the core program of PmCat+. You may rename this
- file to anything you wish as long as you keep the '.EXE'
- extension.
-
- PMCAT.OVR is essential to the operation of PMCAT and MUST be
- either in your path or in the same directory from which PMCAT+ was
- run. The name of this file MUST NOT BE CHANGED, or PmCat+ will
- not run.
-
- PMCATPL.DOC is the complete documentation for PmCat+. You should
- be able to PRINT it from the DOS command line or from any utility
- you use to do this sort of operation.
-
- PMLIST.COM - The program I've included for purposes of viewing
- files is actually called R.COM and was provided to me at my
- request for a public domain text viewer. I renamed it to
- PMLIST.COM solely so you wouldn't see this file (r.com) hanging
- around with no docs and delete it inadvertently and then begin to
- wonder why PMCAT+ no longer functioned! I would strongly suggest
- obtaining a registered copy of Vern Buerg's LIST program if you
- don't have it. 'TYPE' no more!
-
- PM-ORDER.FRM is the invoice style order form for PmCat+. If you
- would like a copy of it, please send two copies when you register
- and I will mark one of them PAID and return it to you with the
- disk(s) you recieve.
-
- PMDEL.DOC is the documentation file describing the use of PMDELDUP
- which you will recieve with registration of PmCat+. It will allow
- you to easily eliminate duplicate files from your PmCat+ or older
- PmCat files (the file formats are the same)
-
- PMCAT.CAT is a catalog file we prepared primarily so you could get
- a quick look at some of the features of PMCAT+. You cannot, of
- course, view these files (which is one of the strongest points of
- PMCAT+), but you can get a quick idea of just what may be done
- with PMCAT+.
-
- A beneficial side effect of PMCAT.CAT is the fact that I can
- easily make any of these files from my personal library availble
- to registered users. If this idea is popular, I can add more
- files and we would end up with a mini software club.
-
- Bear in mind each disk is full of compressed files, unlike the
- commercial houses which must of necessity provide uncompressed
- files when only charging a dollar or two per disk. The places
- where you do receive compressed files normally have to charge
- about $5-$7 per disk. One disk of your choice is FREE with
- registration of PmCat+ and others cost registered users only
- $2.00 ea.
-
- Also, since these are in my personal library, they have been
- checked for functionality and bugs (to some extent).
-
- One caveat ... a lot of the games were given to me in bulk a few
- years back without documentation. I've done my best to weed out
- the ones I thought were commercial/pirated. If you spot any you
- know are not in the public domain or shareware, I would very much
- appreciated your letting me know, so I can delete them. Same
- thought goes for the other programs, but I don't think too many of
- them came sans docs.
