Hello,
        My name is Harlun (Harley) Peterson, I'am a novice programmer,
but sure do like messing around with computers and programming.

        Another thing I like to do is golf, and I enjoy playing the computer
golf game Mean18, By ACCOLADE INC.

        I have worked with dBASE III+ quit a bit and am just starting to
look at other languages. Since I know dBASE III+ a little, and wanted to
generate something to upload to PC-LIB to help pay back for all the neat
public domain programs and utilities I have downloaded, I wrote this.

        Mean18 Golf Course Selection Program:
                What it does -
                        *The Mean18 program itself allows for only three
                         courses. To have more than three course disks or files
                         on a hard disk you would have to keep renaming the
                         course filenames from .xxx to .m18 (which is what the
                         program looks for) . (this is one option.)

                        *This dBASE program will allow you to have all your
                         course files (.m18) in one directory and give you the
                         option of playing any one of them.

                        *This program will rename the course files from .tmp
                         (which you name all your course files i.e.
                         ren Bushhill.m18 Bushhill.tmp) back to .m18 and
                         execute the golf program.

                        *When you are done with your round, the program re-
                         names the course file back to .tmp.


                What you must do -
                        *Rename all your course files to .tmp
                        *Rename golf.exe to GOLFA.EXE.  (Mean18 golf.exe)
                        *Have dBASE III+ installed on your computer.
                        *Have dBASE III+ in your path command.
                        *Type GOLF at the prompt.

                What your options are -
                        *Modify the program (command file) MENU.PRG with the
                         course files you have, if you do not have all those
                         listed.
                        *Modify the program with the names of course files
                         you have created with the ARCH.EXE option that comes
                         with the Mean18 program.
                        *Modify the file golf.fmt with course names as
                         required.(this can be done with a editor.)


**** Responsibility ****

        User accepts all responsibility for the use of this program.

****    Mean18     ****

        This program has no ties with the program Mean18 other than that it can
        be used to run the program and enable the user to better execute the
        program with options not included with Mean18. In other words, there is
        no intent on my part to infringe on the copywrite of the Mean18
        program. (just in case, since I am not familiar with these things.)
