DOSREAD.ME for Home Libraian V1.0 Beta, MS-DOS version.

This package is distributed as three Zoo 2.01 archives:

HL10DSRC ZOO	Source tree.  It needs djgpp. Including the text windows lib.
HL10DBIN ZOO	Binaries (.EXE files).  These are the read-to-run program files.
HL10DDOC ZOO	Documentation.  Contains an plain ASCII .DOC file and this file.

To use the system you only need the BIN and DOC archives.

Installation:

Move the program modules (executables) a directory where you keep
executable files (i.e. c:\BIN or a directory on your PATH).  Print out
the doc file or move it somewhere suitable.

Registration:

Read Appendix B, C, and D of the manual.  Use a text editor to extract
the registration form from the doc file, fill it out and print out a
copy and mail it with the registration fee.

=================

Addendum for MS-DOS:

1. Filename Differences

Because MS-DOS limits filenames to eight characters with a three
character extension,  some of the program names have been changed as
shown below:

       OSK Name (in HOMELIBR.DOC)      MS-DOS Name (in HL10DBIN.ZOO)
      ===============================================================
       Ascii2Libr                      ASC2LIBR.EXE
       EditLibr                        EDITLIBR.EXE
       Libr2Ascii                      LIBR2ASC.EXE
       Librarian                       LIBRARIA.EXE
       PrintCards                      PRTCARDS.EXE
       PrintLabels                     PRTLABLS.EXE

2. Parameter Name Differences.

Because g++ 2.5.7 implements templates and makes template a reserved
word, I changed the name of the -template parameter to -templatefile.

3. No Default Editor.

Since MS-DOS does not come with a spawnable screen editor, you will need
to fetch an editor and set the EDITOR environment variable to define the
editor to use, with a line like the following in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

set EDITOR=emacs

4. ANSI.SYS not needed.

You don't need ANSI.SYS.  The MS-DOS versions of EditLibr and Librarian
use direct screen access functions.
