STARTING VINO:FILE WITH THE SAMPLE DATABASE
VINO:FILE comes with a sample wine database and cross reference

have installed it on your hard drive.
To start VINO:FILE and load up the samples change to the
directory on your hard disk where you installed VINO:FILE and
type:
WINE SAMPLE
PRINTING THE VINO:FILE MANUAL
To print the documentation on almost any printer type
COPY VINOFILE.TXT LPT1:
You will find that the formatting and pagination of the on-disk
manual occasionally looks a little odd. This is because the
formatting is optimized for the printed manual which you will
receive if you register. I apologize for this, but if you register
I think you will agree that it was worth it.
LHARC DECOMPRESSION PROGRAM
When distributed on diskette, VINO:FILE files are compressed
using the shareware program LHARC - a copy of which is included
on the diskette. You will also find the documentation for LHarc
in the file LHARC.MAN.
