Welcome to...
Reaching the Stars and Beyond:
"Images of NASA" Collection
Congratulations, you have purchased one of the finest
collections of Super VGA NASA images available. On this
disk are more than 375 different pictures, each in three
formats. The subdirectories on the disk are:
\BMP1 200 images in Windows bitmap format
\BMP2 180 images in Windows bitmap format
\GIF1 200 images in GIF format for viewing
\GIF2 180 images in GIF format for viewing
\PCX1 200 images in PCX format for use as clip art
\PCX1 180 images in PCX format for use as clip art
\VIEWGIF GIFwiz, A program for viewing multiple GIFs
\PKZIP PKZip and PKUNZip programs
\VIEWERS Several shareware viewers
The VIEWERS subdirectory contains:
CSHW850A.ZIP CompuShow, a shareware DOS file viewer
VPIC51.ZIP VPIC (vers. 5.1) a shareware DOS viewer
VPIC60.ZIP VPIC (vers. 6.0) a shareware DOS viewer
PSPRO102.ZIP Paint Shop Pro, a shareware windows viewer
WINGIF14.ZIP WinGIF, a shareware Windows viewer
To quickly view your files with GIFwiz:
At the DOS prompt, log on to the CD-ROM drive and type:
VIEWGIF1
and press {ENTER} to see the GIFs in subdirectory \GIF1.
To see the files in subdirectory \GIF2, type:
VIEWGIF2
and press {ENTER}.
GIFwiz will display your files 9 per screen. To see the
next group of nine, press the {PAGE DOWN} key or you can go
to the previous group by pressing the {PAGE UP} key. The
space bar will change the number of GIFs per screen. (See
GIFWIZ.DOC for further information.)
The utilities can be installed by using INSTALL.BAT.
To use INSTALL.BAT, change to the drive letter for your
CD-ROM drive and at the DOS prompt, type:
INSTALL n C:
where n is is the number of the program you wish to install
(see table below), and C: is the hard drive where you want
the files to be placed. If you would like to put the files
on a different hard drive, use that letter instead. Be sure
to add the spaces before the number and the C.
==============================================
| n= | to install | for |
|-------|----------------------|-------------|
| 1 | GIFwiz | DOS |
| 2 | CompuShow | DOS |
| 3 | VPIC version 5.1 | DOS |
| 4 | VPIC version 6.0 | DOS |
| 5 | Paint Shop Pro | Windows |
| 6 | WinGIF | Windows |
==============================================
The files will be placed in a subdirectory named VIEWERS.
If you would like to specify the subdirectory for each
viewer, add that subdirectory to your command as follows:
INSTALL n C: YOURDIR
where YOURDIR is replaced with the name of the subdirectory
where you would like the files to be placed. If the
subdirectory does not exist, it will be created. Be sure
to add a space between the C: and the new directory name.
After the files have been placed in the new directory on
your hard drive, you will be logged on to that drive and
returned to the DOS prompt where you may run the program.
The file NASA.TXT contains a complete listing of the
pictures on the disk. To print the list (25 pages), put
your printer on-line and at the DOS prompt, type:
COPY NASA.TXT PRN
and press {ENTER}. To print this README.DOC file, put your
printer on-line and at the DOS prompt, type:
COPY README.DOC PRN
and press {ENTER}.
