- READ & RUN Instructions
- -----------------------
- "READ & RUN" is executed by typing the command "R&R" at the DOS ">" prompt,
- followed by a list of the program files and text files to be read or run,
- e.g.:
-
- A>r&r pfroi.com pfroi2-1.doc pfroi2-2.doc strategy.txt read-me.txt
-
- This is most easily done by including the above command string in a batch
- file (e.g. "GO.BAT") so a user only needs to type "GO" at the DOS prompt.
- Alternatively, if the list of files is terminated by "/S", the files will
- be saved by R&R so subsequently the list need not be included following
- R&R.
-
- R&R automatically interprets all files with extensions ".EXE" or ".COM" as
- program files which may be executed, and all files with extensions ".DOC"
- or ".TXT" as text files which may be read. ".BAT" type files may also be
- run as program files provide a copy of DOS's "COMMAND.COM" is in the
- directory from which R&R is being run.
-
- R&R uses about 64K of memory when running a program in addition to the
- memory required by the object program and its data. If the program is very
- large memory-wise or your PC does not have much memory you may need to
- run the program outside of R&R.
