Included with these programs are many sample pascal │ │ source programs which demonstrate many of the features of Visible Pascal. │ │ Visible Pascal features a interactive mode during the compile phase │ │ which allows you to run programs 1 line at a time, or continuously, but │ │ slowly, showing you each line as it executes. The compiler does create an │ │ executable .COM file, but should you ever want to watch the program run │ │ slowly or one line at a time, the debugger (VISBUG) will operate on .COM │ │ files creates by the compiler (VISPAS) and allow you access to these │ │ options. │ │ Another major feature of the Visible Pascal package is the full-screen │ │ editor (VISED) used for creating programs. This editor can be used not │ │ only for writing Visible Pascal programs but also for creating other text │ │ files. Also you may, if you prefer, use another full screen editor with │ │ which you are more familiar to write your Visible Pascal programs. │ │ All of these features combine to make Visible Pascal an ideal language │ │ for the advanced user as well as the beginner. │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ╔════════════════╗ ║MICROCOM SYSTEMS║ ╚════════════════╝ 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! ╔══════════════════════════════════════╗ ║CURRENT OFFERINGS AS OF MARCH 17, 1987║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════╝ BUSINESS 1 ...

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. ╔═══════════════════╗ ║RESTRICTIONS ON USE║ ╚═══════════════════╝ All files contained on this disk are either in the public domain or are user-supported software, or are copyrighted by MicroCom Systems.
