Readme from Disk 2 and moved to Disk 3 because the manual grew too large
Please read this file as part of docs for Disk 2 of the distribution
(PC sig's number 431)
NOTE: If you don't have PC-SIG disks 430, 431, AND 432, you have
been HAD! You need all three volumes to make sense of AnalytiCalc, and
despite the author's repeated pleas, PC-SIG has never corrected their
mis-statement in print that only 430 and 431, OR 431 and 432 are needed.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE ALL THREE!!!!
The distribution has grown in this way because of major additions
to the manual and functional enhancements to the program. If you don't have
all 3 disks, get the one(s) you're missing and THEN use the program in
good health. I will continue to plea with PC-SIG, but please be aware that
the misapprehension is THEIR doing and NOT MINE.
Thanks for your support.

Utilities and Graphics Disk
A N A L Y T I C A L C
This disk contains the main AnalytiCalc manual (ANALY.DQC)
in machine readable form. Just print it out for your own copy after unsqueezing.
If someone gives you an unpaid copy of this program, please remember
we made it inexpensive to help users and need some return on our
investment. Please send in the registration fee ($49.00 if you use the
program. We are trying to supply the most powerful software of this type
in the industry to you at a reasonable price. Please don't use it in a
production mode without registering. Do however feel free to give evaluation
copies to anyone.
The disk also contains a handy Desktop Calendar system as a free addition.
This system will allow you to keep a calendar of meetings or your
schedule, using the PC to do it. DTC is NOT part of the AnalytiCalc
package and is here placed in public domain. However, it is useful
and can be used with AnalytiCalc. It is squeezed, so unsqueeze the files
(on another disk!) first before trying to use. See MANUSQ.HLP on how to
unsqueeze files.
The AnalytiCalc graphics task is on this disk as ACGRAF.EXE
and it may be run to produce graphs from saved AnalytiCalc
spreadsheets according to directions in the manual.
The DTC (Desktop Calendar) program and a Form 1040 saved
spreadsheet file are furnished in squeezed form here to save space.
The public domain USQ utility will return them to their original
forms.
Just give the command
USQ filename.ext
where "filename.ext" becomes one of the squeezed files (the "ext" has
Q as the middle letter).
The USQ program will regenerate the original version. Be sure
there is plenty of room when you unsqueeze.
A demo piechart program called PIE.BAS is provided to draw
piecharts from saved spreadsheets, on a graphics screen. It requires
BASICA and a color graphics board and is a free extra, not a part
of the vended AnalytiCalc package. It shows the ease of reading saved
files to generate plots. To use it, just save the region of the screen
to piechart (use PDN) and give the filename used to pie.bas. Row or
column titles, if any, will be used as labels (up to 8 chars). Up to
100 slices may be shown. Enter a real limit of how far over and down
to save to save ONLY the region to chart (i.e., don't just enter 0).
Another BASIC graphics program is on the kit too. Try it; you'll
like it.
The Form 1040 files are spread across all distribution disks, again
for space reasons. You load F1040.PCC first (possibly using F1040.CMD to
do it), then use @file.PCC to enter Schedule X or Y, and do Schedule
A, B, and Form 1040 itself. You can create a PRINT.PCC command
file to print it all out. These forms are modified to reflect 1984 tax rates.
To create the PRINT.PCC file, just type a file in containing the
following commands:
O A1
DB 6,60
R

O M1
DB 6,36
