Virtual Reality Tools 2.1
Requires an AT 80286 or more with VGA.
Shareware evaluation copy
Files required to run:
VTOOLS.EXE
VTOOLS.HLP
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE: Simply copy the files into a directory.
STARTING UP VTOOLS: From the DOS prompt, type: VTOOLS
you may add to the name of a sprite file or an icon as parameter:
Ex: VTOOLS DEMO

If extension is not typed, the program adds the SPR extension to
the name, and search for a sprite file. In all cases but the
present one for an icon , VTools sets itself the extensions for
files, that are proper to file type, and that user can't change.
