These are the official Lotus driver and installation
programs which allow the diskette version of 1-2-3 to be used on
the PCjr with either a color or black & white monitor. I checked
them with the Norton Utility but found no indication that they
were copyrighted, so to the best of my knowledge they are not.
THINGS TO NOTE
* This only works with DOS 2.1 and version 1A of 1-2-3
* The PCjr must have a minimum of 256 KB of memory. You
don't need to have a two disk drive system, but it helps.
* Once installed on a 1-2-3 System disk, Tutorial disk,
and PrintGraph disks, the same disks cannot be used on a PC
without reinstalling the origional driver programs.
* If you add these programs to the Lotus Utility disk and
run the setup routine, it overwrites the origional driver
programs and you'll loose them. So don't do that unless you
never want to run your programs on a PC again. Alternatively,
keep the PCjr programs on a seperate disk.
* It will only work with with the monitor in the 80 column
display mode. However, you may have trouble with the MODE 80
approach (I did with a Legacy, but was successful with
LEGACY.COM). So try alternative programs for getting the 80
column display until you find one that works.
HOW TO INSTALL
The installation is menu driven. Boot up, put the
installation programs in the A: drive and type "JRCOLOR" if you
have a RGB monitor or ""JRB&W" for monochrome. Follow the
directions on the screen.
