- DOS PHANTOM V2.1
-
- DOS Phantom is a keystroke record-and-playback utility. Recordings
- can be of any length and can be edited after recording. Recordings
- can be played back at high speed or with delays.
-
- DOS Phantom is:
- - A task automation tool

- timeout features)

- - program exit status
- - appearance of a text string on the screen
-
- DOS Phantom provides facilities similar to the scripting languages of
- popular communications programs such as Procomm and CrossTalk, but
- applied instead to *your* computer rather than the one you are connected
- to over the phone line. You can even use DOS Phantom to control a
- Procomm session instead of using Procomm's scripting facility.
-
- DOS Phantom is useful as a batch substitute, as a regression testing
- tool for software development, for creating demos of software, and for
- automating any task you perform repetively on your computer.
-
- A demonstration recording and Users Guide are included in PTM221.ZIP.
- DOS Phantom is shareware. The registration fee is $25.00. All features
