.NOTES
Mylar Sheet And Punch Card Designer V2.0S (MSAPCD) is a fully
functional SHAREWARE program, distributed on the understanding
that after a maximum evaluation period of four weeks, users of
MSAPCD pay the one-off registration fee of 15.00 (British pounds)
if they continue to use the program. In return for your honesty,
you will be sent the registered users' version of MSAPCD (which
has no 'registration nagger' to bother you), a printed manual,
and be entitled to technical support.
MSAPCD2S.EXE and READ.EXE are both copyright of Clive Alexander
West. Both programs, after evaluation of MSAPCD, may be used
solely by the REGISTERED user, unless written permission by me is
given otherwise. If you do not wish to continue using MSAPCD
then you are requested to erase the contents of the disc, or pass
it on to someone else who may be interested in the software.
To register, just print out the file REGISTER.ME,
. eg A:\>COPY REGISTER.ME PRN
fill the form in, and send your registration fee.
In order to keep track of where copies of this program are being
distributed, please would you write the name and address of the
shareware vendor/distributor you received the program from.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE SOFTWARE ON THE MSAPCD SHAREWARE DISC IS
SUPPLIED WITHOUT WARRANTY, ON AN "AS IS" BASIS.
A file called MSAPCMAN.UAL is on the distribution disc and can be
viewed with the file view utility program called READ.EXE. This
help file can also be displayed from within MSAPCD by pressing
X (for eXtras) and R (for Read manual) - you will need to have
READ.EXE and MSAPCMAN.UAL in the current directory for this to work.
Alternatively, you can use the MANUAL.BAT batch file:
. eg A:\>MANUAL
Please make a copy of the distribution disc as soon as possible using
the operating system DISKCOPY command.
. eg A:\>DISKCOPY A: B:
When you have made a back up copy of the disc use this to invoke
Mylar Sheet And Punch Card Designer, NOT the original.
If you have a PC with a hard disc, then you may want to use the
supplied batch file called KDINSTAL to set up a special directory
and subdirectories for MSAPCD.
. eg A:\>KDINSTAL C:
Once you have set up the MSAPCD system files, you can invoke the
program by typing MSAPCD2S at the DOS prompt.
. eg A:\>MSAPCD2S
. or
. C:\>CD MSAPCD
. C:\MSAPCD>MSAPCD2S
If you are viewing this file (READ.ME) with the aid of the READ
program supplied on the distribution disc, and you want more
information about MSAPCD before you get started, just press L to
load a new view file, then enter MSAPCMAN.UAL as the file name.
The MSAPCMAN.UAL file may be printed out on a printer.
. eg A:\>COPY MSAPCMAN.UAL PRN
.HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
MSAPCD V2.0S has been written to run on an IBM compatible DOS-based
microcomputer using a VGA monitor - or EGA monitor with 64K+ video
memory. The use of a printer that is compatible/emulates an Epson
or IBM dot matrix printer is necessary for graphics printing,
although designs may be printed on most printers using text mode.
I hope that you will enjoy using MSAPCD as much as I have enjoyed
creating it, and that it will give you the opportunity to try your
hand at making personalised knitting designs.
