Atari ST User November '89 Cover Disc
-------------------------------------
The disc is single sided, but if you double click on
DOUBLE.TOS it will be instantly turned into a double sided disc with
many more programs available - provided you have a double sided disc
drive. (Don't save or delete anything from this disc).
Two main programs on this month's cover disc: Arnor's Protext
word processor on this side of the disc and Domark's APB arcade game
on the other. To run Protext double click on PROTEXT.PRG, press space
when the title screen comes up, press 6 for a simple backspacing
printer and then press 1 to try Protext. Type LOAD README then press
Escape to edit this file.
To run APB first double click on DOUBLE.TOS to make the disc
double sided, then double click on APB.TOS. Have a blank formatted
disc ready as it makes a separate game disc.
Some of the files on this disc have been archived to save
space and will need to be de-archived before they can be used.
Archived files have the file extension .ARC and the utility to de-
archive them is ARCX.TTP.
To de-archive, for example, the Protext help files and printer
drivers stored in PROTEXT.ARC first copy ARCX.TTP and PROTEXT.ARC to a
blank disc. Double click on ARCX.TTP and type PROTEXT into the box.
The other archived files are de-archived this way too.
QUICKST.ARC on side 2 (run DOUBLE.TOS) speeds up your ST by as
much as 900%. QINDEX.ARC will performance test your micro. Try it
before and after loading QUICKST.
