PMCAT PLUS files and a few words about this diskette:
The file PMCAT52A is a distribution archive of PmCat PLUS. DO NOT
MIX these files with other PMCATPL archive. The filenames have been
altered because certain features are disabled in the distribution
copy (not crippled in any way, though). The features that remain
active at all times do not interfere in any way with the proper
functioning of PmCat PLUS.
PMCPLX.EXE (or PMCPDISX.EXE) is the core program of PmCat+. You may
rename this file to anything you wish as long as you keep the '.EXE'
extension.
PMCPLX.OVR (or PMCPDISX.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 encourage obtaining a registered copy of Gil Yoder's ML. ML,
which has mouse support, is included with the PmCatPLUS distribution
package by arrangement with Gil Yoder. '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.
PLEASE NOTE:
I've decided to strip off all the fancy extras from PmCat PLUS
and offer just the program for evaluation. In evaluating the
results for 60 days after release, it appears the users are not, for
the most part, interested in the extras I made available (which were
part of the reason for the registration increase price). The new
program is going to require a bit more support on my part and I need
to raise the price slightly (to $20) to help offset that.
Registered users will receive a slightly different version (one
in which the HELP line may be toggled, the Title Screen may be
toggled and the closing screen message will be absent).
They will also receive a utility (PmConvert) which allows
conversion of older PmCat data files to the newer format.

COALGATE BBS
(405) 927-2541
24 hrs
Baud rate: 14400/9600/2400/1200/300 ( USR HST 14.4 )
8-n-1
Additionally, registered users will be able to get access to a
special area of the Coalgate BBS from which they may obtain a
registered copy of the very latest version of PmCat PLUS at any time.
Anyone, registered or not may access the Coalgate BBS and download
files on their first visit. The design of the BBS software prohibits
public messages till after validation (which *can* be done on your
first call if I happen to be in the neighborhood).
Additionally, the Coalgate BBS will serve as a similar home base
for Gil Yoder's programs, SCRIPTURE, WINDIR, ML, MLX and others which
are in the works. We just need some more hard drive space as the
present 40 megs is bursting at the seams.
