SkyGlobe 2.5 is very fun and simple to use!
To run SkyGlobe 2.5, make sure the files SKYGLOBE.COM and SKYGLOBE.DAT are
present in the currently active directory, (the one that lists when you type
DIR). Then, just type SKYGLOBE, and press Enter.
First you will be asked to select a video adapter. If you have a color system,
you will be able to choose between CGA, EGA, and VGA. The CGA display will be
in black and white, while EGA and VGA will be in full 16-color mode. If you
have a monochrome system, the menu will include Hercules, EGA monochrome, and
VGA monochrome. If your system supports gray-scaling, SkyGlobe will probably
use the color choices. Use the cursor keys to select the proper choice for your
system, and press Enter.
The next task is to select a viewing location. The nearly 240 choices are on
two pages, with the first page containing US and Canadian locations. To see
the international choices, use the End key, then press Enter. Use the cursor
keys to select the desired location, then press Enter.
Read the Shareware message, then press any key. The screen will be filled with
stars!!
Try the simple one-key commands and have fun with SkyGlobe 2.5!!!
