- │ AUGUSTA is a subset of the US Department of Defense computer language │
- │ ADA. ADA has been touted as the language of the future. More development │
- │ has been put into the design of ADA than of any other new programming │
- │ language ever! Augusta is a downsized version of ADA, devised by Edward │
- │ Mitchell and published in Dr. Dobb's Journal. Jim Castleberry has taken │
- │ the Augusta Basic source code and translated it into structured Pascal. │
- │ The source is provided along with the compiled interpreter so that you can │
- │ add your own extensions. │
- │ Augusta will compile the source program into "pseudo-code" which is │
- │ then executed by the interpreter ATERP. To run a program, first compile it │
- │ using Augusta, then execute it by entering "ATERP" followed by the name of │
- │ the ADA pseudo-code created by Augusta. Additionally, a pseudo-code │
- │ dissassembler is provided, which translates the compiled programs into │
- │ something more readable, similar to assembly language. │
- │ Two sample programs are provided with Augusta. SIEVE.AUG is the │
- │ popular Eratosthenes Sieve benchmark, while DEMO.AUG is a simple number │
- │ guessing game. │
- │ Those wishing further information on the ADA language and Augusta │
- │ specifically are directed to articles in four issues of Dr. Dobb's │
- │ Journal, totaling over fifty pages. They explain the operation of the │
- │ compiler, the language syntax, and the details of the system. Dr. Dobb's │
- │ issues 75, 77, 79, and 81, running every other month from January to July │
- │ of 1983. There is a 160 page book about Augusta mentioned in the article │
- │ available from Laboratory Microsystems Inc., 4147 Beethoven Street, Los │
- │ Angeles, CA, 90066. │

- MicroCom Systems distributes Public Domain and User-Supported (PD&US) software
- for the IBM PC/XT/AT and compatible computers. Our software charter specifies
- that we search for the best available PD&US software and distribute it for a
- nominal charge. We understand that there are literally hundreds of megabytes
- of PD&US software in existence and it is our goal to distribute only the best,
- which constitutes only a small fraction of all PD&US software. Our prices are
- also a reflection of the fact that we are a service oriented group.
-
- In addition to offering only the best of what is available, we DO NOT offer
- lots of redundant programs, which other public domain software groups tend to
- do. We try to provide the service of distributing only the best program
- available for a particular need, rather than every program on the market that
- meets that need. For example, we sell only ONE variable size ram-disk (the
- best one) whereas some of the other groups sell more than TEN of them!

- ╔═════════════╗
- ║COMPATIBILITY║
- ╚═════════════╝
- The programs we distribute generally require PC-DOS versions 2.0 or later
- (including 2.1, 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2) A few programs may not work on some
- compatibles. The basic programs distributed require IBM BASIC or BASICA, but
- in most cases are compatible with GWBASIC, and Compaq's BASICA.
-
- ╔════════════════╗
- ║BEFORE YOU BEGIN║
- ╚════════════════╝
- This distribution diskette may or may not have been physically write protected.
- In any case, files should be copied to a work disk before use. In some cases,
- it may not be possible to successfully execute programs without copying the
- relevant files to a non-write protected work disk with sufficient space.
-
- ╔══════════════╗
- ║USING PROGRAMS║
- ╚══════════════╝
- For a summary of the programs on a diskette, read the file HELP.DOC.
- HELP.DOC contains a one line summary section for all programs on the disk.
- Many programs will come with a separate documentation file with extension
- ".DOC". These documentation files should prove quite helpful in learning how
- to use the programs. To execute a program with the specified extension:
-
- EXTENSION COMMAND
- ───────── ───────
- EXE Type the program name leaving off the extension.
- COM Type the program name leaving off the extension.
- BAS Type BASICA followed by the program name.
-
- The programs distributed may be in subdirectories. To access a program in a
- subdirectory, execute the DOS command "CHDIR (directory name)". This will then
- make the specified directory the current one and the programs in it will be
- directly accessible.
