Here are descriptions of two other Shareware programs produced by
Gulf Sierra, PC-ACCOUNT and SHERLOCK.
PC-ACCOUNT
PC-ACCOUNT is a personal accounting system with data base
retrieval capabilities. With it, you can discard your checkbook
ledger. Its most unique feature is its ability to print on any
personal check.
Personal checks are usually not designed for the normal line
spacing of 6 lines per inch. This program utilizes the variable
line spacing of most printers to achieve the efficiency and
accuracy of having your computer print on your checks. A utility
lets you create formats for fifteen different checking accounts.
The check is printed as soon as the transaction is completed.
The amount is printed on the check in words.
A directory is maintained of check payees and memo data to be
printed on the check, such as its purpose or your account number
with the payee. Payees are selected by number, and the name and
memo are automatically transferred to the check.
Searches can be made for all transactions against an account, for
a user defined code, for an amount, for a text string within the
comment, or for a check number. These searches can be made
through any selected consecutive months, so a full years
transactions in a specific category can be retrieved at tax time.
Recurring transactions such as loan payments and cash
distributions to accounts can be saved, edited and invoked on
command for auto entry. There is a routine that can reconcile
your bank statement swiftly. Another routine double checks the
line by line totals in your checkbook.
This system makes full use of the features of the IBM PC. All 10
function keys are used. Listings of accounts and transactions
can be output to the screen, to the printer, to a disk text file,
or to a file that can be imported by Lotus 1-2-3.
This software works on the IBM PC/XT/AT with 256K of free memory
and at least 1 double sided disk drive. It runs under PC DOS 2.0
and later versions. It is distributed on bulletin boards,
CompuServe, and by Shareware disk vendors. It comes in three
files: PCACT220.TXT, PCDOC220.EXE, and PCACT220.EXE.
SHERLOCK
SHERLOCK is designed to do one job, compare two ASCII files line
by line. When they don't match, SHERLOCK raises a flag. At that
point, you may scroll either or both files passed the mismatch to
put them in sync and then continue. SHERLOCK contains features
for searching, jumping around the files, restarting, and copying
lines to a printer. SHERLOCK does not write to either file.
SHERLOCK is designed as a tool for programmers, writers and
workstation support personnel. It is best on files like program
source files, AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, and text documents.
SHERLOCK displays five lines of each file in separate windows.
The line from each file that is being compared is in the center
of the window and highlighted. The line number of the center
line is displayed in the upper left corner of the window frame.
When they do not match, a message pops up between the windows.
The top line of each window frame displays the number of the
center line and the name of the file.
At the end of this documentation is a page showing the SHERLOCK
screen. Since it contains graphic lines, it may not print on
your printer. View this on your computer screen.

This is the main screen of SHERLOCK. It illustrates the two
windows that contain the text being displayed and the list of
functions available. Unfortunately, it doesn't show the yellow,
brown, black, red and blue colors or the reverse video of this
screen.
The middle lines of the top two windows are highlighted. They
are both line 356 in the respective documents. The flag between
the windows indicate that these lines do not match. One line has
the number with the value 66 and the other has 65.
