The TeleShare remote access package enables you to share your
personal computer running DOS with another PC whenever they
can both be connected by a decent telephone connection. Its
RAM small size enables you to work with very memory hungry
software packages that squeeze out the competition. The
software included here is assembled as a useful toolkit, with
various parts being easily replaced by other software as you
prefer.
If you did not use the INSTALL to load this stuff on your hard
drive, you might be feeling a little lost. Basically you just
need to run TSMENU.BAT (or TSBASIC.BAT if you can't find
TSMENU.BAT) and choose Setup. You need to specify the correct
serial COM port and baud and save your choices. If necessary
you can run the PORTEST utility to find the correct serial COM
port. Then you can load the host - tsh or remote - tsr into
ram and go to it - assuming you have another computer waiting
for you on the other end of your phone/serial line. Most of
the other tools are special purpose utilities that you can
read up on as you go along - or erase if you find you don't
use them. The TeleShare package gets quite small if you only
use the core portions and erase the rest.

Often, plus other materials. A fair number of utilities have
been removed from this release, but are available in various
ways. Our distributors naturally seek to minimise the bulk
that they distribute, and we cooperate by removing portions,
but still making the additional portions available in other
ways. Our preferred option is for you to ask for 'everything'
when you register.
The manuals:
The documentation is spread out into some manuals to match
specific purposes and tools and to avoid one overly large
manual. Its generally easier to find the XM.TXT when one
wants to find out more about the XM.EXE utility than to search
through some 'EVERYTHING.TXT'. The TELE.TXT is the main
manual with general setup coverage and coverage of the Remote
(TSR) and the Host (TSH). You should look at the
EXAMPLES.TXT. Both MNU and TELEFILE have browsers that will
help you browse the manuals.
More Important, or more useful, Manuals
SHR_WARE.TXT explains Shareware marketing.
REGISTER.TXT explains the product pricing.
TELE.TXT for the actual remote control functions.
VENDOR.TXT supplies shareware vendor information.

INSTALL.TXT (if present) describes the install.exe
Printing the Manuals
The documentation is in plain text, or ascii, format and contains
form feed characters to advance the pages. Please be sure to read
the individual manuals on disk before deciding to print them out.
A primary reason for so many small manuals is to make finding the
right information easier. It also means that you only need to
print out what you need, if you need to print anything.
To print, use 'COPY TELE.TXT PRN' to send the documentation to
the printer. The files should end up on paper properly
paginated and ready to be punched with holes on the left.
Repeat the process for each file ending in ".TXT". You could
use "COPY *.TXT PRN" to copy them all to the printer, but it
could waste a lot of paper on manuals that you never use.
Note that not all of the programs are the property of P. C. Softsmith.
You should check the documentation if you adopt the tool.
