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.
