- Ample Notice V 1.2
- (c) Copyright 1987, 1988 by Mark Harris
- All rights reserved.
-
- The main programs on this disk are:
-
- AN.EXE - the appointments calendar program,
- ALARM.COM - the pop-up alarm clock,
- OUTSIDE.COM - an evelope addresser which takes addresses from
- screen or file.
-
- To get started using AN and ALARM first make a backup copy of this
- disk, then print the AN manual. The manual has about 22 pages and
- can be printed in its entirety by entering
- PRINTMAN AN.DOC
- To skip the first 4 pages and print the rest of the manual, type
- PRINTMAN AN.DOC 4
- To view the manual on the screen use the \S option; e.g.
- PRINTMAN/S AN.DOC 2
-
- The documentation for OUTSIDE is in the file OUTSIDE.DOC. You can
- print or view this file in a similar way:
- PRINTMAN OUTSIDE.DOC
- PRINTMAN/S OUTSIDE.DOC
-
- If you are a registered user of a previous version of Ample Notice
- you may obtain the new printed manual for $3 (foreign: $5) from
- Granny's. Changes from version 1.08 include:
-
- Addition of K)opy command,
- archiving of selective notes and appointments,
- <Shift Enter> edits next line,
- Time and date stamps changed to <Alt T,D or B>,
- advance nags: 2/3/88-5 nags 5 days in advance,
- %F in CONFIG.CAL suppresses opening screen
- point to date, insert in edit line.
-
- These changes are described in the manual (printed or disk version).
-
- If your computer shows the wrong time on the alarm clock but the
- correct time when you type TIME at the DOS prompt then you should
- try the utility TIMER (a public domain program by David
- Macchiarolo and Jim Seley) included on the Ample Notice disk. (In
- particular, AT&T 6300 users are likely to experience this
- problem.) If this fixes the problem we recommend that you
- include TIMER in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file before ALARM.
