- README.1ST: for THE PRESIDENTS(c) v1.7 - SHAREWARE -
-
- This program is for people interested in the history of the United
- States of America. It provides short biographies of all the Presidents
- and presents tests and quizzes in various ways so that the user may
- review in a non-threatening atmosphere.
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- These programs cannot fit on one disk. They are compressed with LHARC
- by Yoshi. PRES-A.EXE contains QUIZPRES.EXE, PRES.DOC and all the tests.
- It also contains the biographies of the last six Presidents (PR35-39.COM &
- PR40.COM) which do not fit on the second disk.
-
- PRES-B.EXE contains all but the last six Presidential biographies,
- READPRES.BAT file, REPLY.COM and LISTPRES as a menu for listing, selecting
- and reading the biographies.
-
- Have two formated disks ready. Place the first in Drive B:. Type B:.
- The cursor should now look like "B:>". Type A:PRES-A.EXE and the files will
- be extracted and placed on the blank disk in drive B:. Mark that disk Pres-A.
- Replace that disk with the second formated disk. Repeat the process with
- PRES-B.EXE. Mark that disk Pres-B.
-
- It would be wise to now make a back-up of those two disks. If you wish
- to have a bootable disk, format the Pres-A disk with the /S option and copy
- all of the Pres-A files to the bootable disk but not the PRES.DOC file. This
- should give you sufficient room for the necessary files. You do not need the
- DOC file to run the program.
-
- If you have disks of greater density you may place all the files on
- one disk or one directory. Be sure to move to the destination before
- unpacking these programs.
-
- Read the directions (in the DOC) file on the operation of the program.
-
- The ANSI.SYS (or NANSI.SYS) should be loaded for the .BAT file to work
- properly. Place DEVICE=ANSI.SYS in your CONFIG.SYS file.
