   ~1eABOUT NIGHTINGALE SOFTWARE . . .
   ~1b
   Thank you for your interest in ~1eNIGHTINGALE SOFTWARE~1b!
   ~1b
   ~1eNIGHTINGALE SOFTWARE~1b is dedicated to providing software that will satisfy
   the needs of today's on-the-go computer user.  It is our goal to offer
   low-cost, simple, easy-to-use programs that meet the demanding needs of
   the busy, modern professional.
   ~1b
   We make every attempt to include all those features that will make the
   program well suited to the intended application while avoiding unnecessary
   "bells and whistles" that often complicate and even confuse the user.  By
   eliminating the need to produce superfluous program code, we are able to
   keep our prices among the lowest available for comparable products.
   ~1b
   We invite you to browse this product catalogue.  Each program does one
   major task and, we believe, does it well - and at a modest cost.  Look at
   the many features included in each program and how these relate to the
   tasks that the program is designed to accomplish.  We believe that you
   will not find a better value for the money.
   ~1b
   While we are confident that you will be happy with any program you might
   wish to purchase, if you are in any doubt, we invite you to try one of our
   DEMO DISKS.  These are available for four of our most popular programs
   (~1eCEU TRACKER~1b, ~1eCAREER INFOBASE~1b, ~1ePERSONAL INFOBASE~1b, and ~1eDAILY REMINDER~1b) as
   noted in the catalogue.  (Demos are essentially full-function programs
   with the single major exception that data cannot be saved from one session
   to the next.)
   ~1b
   If you normally prefer applications specially written for the Windows
   environment, please give our programs a try.  While they are designed for
   the MS-DOS platform, they have been thoroughly tested and perform very
   smoothly when installed and run under Windows.
   ~1b
   We are constantly searching for new ways to improve our programs and to
   better serve the needs of our customers.  We solicit your comments and
   suggestions for the improvement of our products, including this catalogue. 
   Please send any remarks about this or any of our products to User Feedback
   at the above address.

   These three calendars give quick access to important dates you need to
   check.
   ~1b
   Major features of these calendars include:
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    Easily move forward or backward by day, week, month, or
               year within a span of dates from January 1, 1800 to
               December 31, 2050.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    Quickly jump to any date, returning to the current date
               by hitting a single key.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The Days Difference feature quickly calculates the
               number of days between any two dates.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    Instantly return to today's date by hitting the HOME
               key.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    For every day of the year, the following five items of
               information are provided:
   ~1b
               ~1e1.~1b    the day number in the year,
               ~1e2.~1b    the days remaining in the year,
               ~1e3.~1b    the Chinese year designation (dog, pig, etc.),
               ~1e4.~1b    the sign of the Zodiac, and
               ~1e5.~1b    depending on the calendar, information about some
                     event that occurred on the date.
   ~1b
                     The ~1eNATAL-DAY CALENDAR~1b provides the year and name
                     of a notable person (sometimes two) who was born
                     on the current (or selected) date.
   ~1b
                     The ~1eFATAL-DAY CALENDAR~1b provides the year and name
                     of a notable person (sometimes two) who died on
                     the current (or selected) date.
   ~1b
                     The ~1eBIG-EVENT CALENDAR~1b gives the year and some
                     significant or interesting event that occurred on
                     the current or selected date.
   ~1b

   These little calendars are not only very useful, but they are also very
   interesting and a lot of fun.  For example, on October 30, baseball legend
   (Triple Crown, 1942/47) Ted Williams was born in 1918, actor John Houseman
   (Professor Kingsfield on "The Paper Chase") died in 1988, and Orson Welles
   panicked the nation with his 1938 broadcast of "War of the Worlds."

   This calendar provides all the convenient features of the ~1eNATAL-DAY~1b,
   ~1eFATAL-DAY~1b, and ~1eBIG-EVENT CALENDARS~1b except that instead of events, an
   interesting and thought-provoking quotation is listed for every day of the
   year.
   ~1b
   All quotes are selected at random from a data file of 800 quotations from
   317 thinkers ranging from Plato to Einstein.  This means that there are
   enough quotes to last MORE THAN TWO YEARS without a single repeat.
   ~1b
   When using the calendar, a new quotation along with its author will appear
   for every day that you move to on the calendar.  Since the selection is
   random, you will never know what quote will appear next.  Thus, if you
   look at today's quote, jump to next week, and then back to today, you will
   see a different quote for today.
   ~1b
   A special Quote Mode is provided for those who would like to simply browse
   the quotes.  In this mode, all calendar functions are inactive; however,
   you can step through all 800 quotations in order, one at a time.  This is
   perfect for those who may be looking for a special thought, or who enjoy
   reading the great ideas of others.

   Not only can you quickly convert your weight from pounds to kilograms, but
   you can see what you would weigh in scruples or stones.  You can determine
   your height in the familiar inches or centimeters, or you can measure your
   stature in barleycorns or spans.
   ~1b
   All units are quickly found using the convenient category list, and
   conversions are accomplished by selecting two units from a list of those
   within the chosen category.  Help is available at all times by hitting a
   single key.

   Other special features of the ~1eBIG-DIGIT ALARM CLOCK~1b include:
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The display shows the current time to the nearest second
               in the large digits.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The day and date and any alarm time that has been set
               are shown in normal size characters.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    A Westminster-style 4/4 chime sounds on the quarter hour
               with hourly "bongs" that count the hour.  The chime can
               be turned on or off.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The alarm can be set for any time within the next 24-
               hour period.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    A handy "snooze" feature permits the alarm to be quickly
               reset (up to 12 times) to sound again in 10 minutes.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The color of the digits may be changed to any of the

   This unique clock features all of the functions of the ~1eBIG-DIGIT ALARM
   CLOCK~1b except the alarm.  It has the terrific big digit display and the
   Westminster chimes.
   ~1b
   In place of the alarm, there are two timer functions:
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The first timer is a COUNTDOWN TIMER which counts down
               from a time which you have preset.  An alarm is sounded
               when the selected time reaches zero.
   ~1b
         ~1eį~1b    The other timer is an EVENT TIMER which counts up from
               zero for measuring unknown periods.
   ~1b
   When used as a clock, the display is identical to that of the ~1eBIG-DIGIT
   ALARM CLOCK~1b except that the window area in the lower right that indicates
   the alarm status and setting now displays the message "TIMER IS OFF."
   ~1b
   When either timer is in use, it is displayed in big digits in the main
   window giving a display like this:

   ~1b
   The current time is now visible in normal-size characters in the smaller
   window area at the lower right.  As with the ~1eBIG-DIGIT ALARM CLOCK~1b, the
   current date is always displayed.
   ~1b
   Timers can be started or stopped, or you can switch between the two timer
   modes as many times as you like without loosing the accumulated time.
   ~1b
   The timers are functional for a time period up to 99 hours, 59 minutes,
   and 59 seconds, (over 4 days!) -- which is longer than most needs!)

   You may find a ~1eNIGHTINGALE SOFTWARE~1b order form supplied with this
   catalogue in any of the following ways:
   ~1b
         ~1e1.~1b    If you have a DEMO version of one of our programs, check
               to see if the program provides a function to print the
               order form.  This will normally be found as an option on
               the Main Menu or initial screen.
   ~1b
         ~1e2.~1b    Look for the command file ORDERFRM.COM.  Run this file
               by typing ORDERFRM.  You may then read and print the
               order form directly from this little program.  (To print
               the order form, simply type "T" and follow the on-screen
               directions.)
   ~1b
         ~1e3.~1b    Check for the text file ORDER.FRM.  You may use any word
               processor or text editor to print this file, or it can
               be printed directly from the DOS prompt by typing COPY
               ORDER.FRM PRN.
   ~1b
   Otherwise, if all this fails or you prefer, you may compose your own order
   form to include the following information:
   ~1b
         ~1e1.~1b    Your name and address.
