-
- FASTOFF.COM is a memory resident program designed to turn off
- your floppy drive faster than the standard IBM PC does.
-
- Normally the drive runs for about 2 seconds after the read
- is complete. This program will cut the time in half.
-
- FFEED.COM is a memory resident program designed to add a
- form feed after dumping a screen of data or graphics to
- your printer. It is written in such a way that the form
- feed will occur only when you use the right "shift" key
- along with "PrtSc". If you do not want a form feed,
- simply use the left "shift" key along with "PrtSc".
-
- If your printer is not on line, the program will abort
- to prevent locking up your keyboard.
-
- NOREPEAT.COM is a memory resident program designed to
- assist children or inexperienced typists with avoidance
- of repeating characters when any key is held down too
- long.
-
- Put the program you need (or all of them) into your
- batch file when booting your system. They take very
- little room and will be there when you need them.
-
- NOTE: MR. KIHLKEN WARNS THAT FASTOFF.COM IS FOR THE
- IBM. IF YOURS IS A "COMPATIBLE" HE ADVISES CAREFUL
- EXPERIMENTING BEFORE ASSUMING IT WILL RUN OK.
