-
- I.
- ******* Why this program? *******
-
-
- This program was made for a simple reason. I was getting tired of
- ASCII file telling me names and phone numbers of different boards around the
- nation, and not telling me anything about the board itself.
-
- I got sick of calling a board just to find out that they didn't have
- anything that I was interested in.
-
- So here it is the ANSI advertizment program for different boards.
- This program offers more than just a list of boards, it offers a full page
- of what the board is about. No more surprises when you call a board. This
- program offers a complete description of different boards..
-
-
-
- II.
- ******* How to Use this program. *******
-
- This program is very easy to use, as long as you have the ANSI.SYS
- loaded in your Config.sys file, and have arrow keys and a space bar you have
- it made. If you don't, see a keyboard sells person.
-
- The only real feature you need to know about is the selection menu.
- 'S' gets you into that area, then you can press the space bar by all the
- options you are looking for in a Board. then press return and it will give you
- a list of boards that meat you standards. You will notice at the top that
- there is a Total number of boards and a Total number selected. This is just
- to give you an idea of what i have so far.
-
- If you know of a board that you would like to add to the program talk
- to your sysop and tell him about this program.
-
- III.
- ******* How do I get my Advertisement in here? *******
-
- Well here you are, a SysOp of a board that would like to get your ANSI
- screen added to the board. Well that is an easy process.
-
- First fill out the QUESTION.DOC file and then ZIP or ARJ that file with
- you ANSI screen and upload it to my board:

- ******* Questions and Answers *******
-
-
- Q) What do I need to run this program?
- A) All you really need to run this program is ANSI.SYS loaded into you
- Config.sys file. A color monitor might be nice, but is not required.
-
- Q) The program says "File Error" when I try to load one of the ANSI screens.
- A) This means that someone was trying to "modify" this program, and or
- you do not have the complete listing. Cantact me and let me know, I will
- also send you out the newest release.
-
- Q) I would like to get the newest release but don't know where to look.
- A) You can call my board 24 hours a day and get the latest release.
