- DocView 1.0

-
- DocView is a little something I whipped up to ease the viewing and
- printing of Program Manuals Distributed with my programs.
-
- Requirements: 300K free memory, its not highly optimised for memory
- usage. Need enough memory for large DOC's!!
-
- Limitations : DocView will not work for any other files. The files
- that can be loaded, viewed and printed, are hard-coded
- into each copy distributed.
- So you will probably wish to send it to the bit-bucket
- sooner or later.
-
- Potential : It's possible, in time, that I will distribute a version
- of DocView that others may use for the same purpose,
- allowing the user to specify the required names etc in a
- config file. Don't hold your breath though.
-
- **************************************************
-
- Usage :
-
- Simply log onto the directory where the DOC files are, that should be
- where you un-packed the archive.
-
- To view DOC's with DocView, they must be in the same directory as
- DocView, the program will not search elsewhere for the file. If it
- cannot be found in the current directory, it will simply tell you it
- cannot load FILENAME.
-
- When you fire up DocView, it will present a menu of files, select the
- one you wish to view, and press ENTER. The file will be displayed,
- UpArrow, DnArrow, PgUp, PgDn, Home and End will work for moving through
- the file.
-
- Ctl-P will Print the file to the default printer on LPT1. If the
- printer is NOT ready, DocView will just beep at you, otherwise it will
- display a message on the bottom line and commence printing.
-
- Pressing ESCape will again present the DOC file menu, you may select
- another to view, OR pressing ESCape again, will Exit the program.
-
- I hope you find DocView helpful in viewing/printing the manuals!
