==============================================================
Welcome to MORNING STAR !!
==============================================================
In order to read the magazine you'll need the following files :
MSTAR.EXE
MSTAR.HLP
[mmmyyyy].MS (in this case DEC1991.MS)
To start reading, type MSTAR DEC1991.MS or just type MSTAR and
a "picklist" will appear. This will be handy when you have a
collection of MORNING STAR Magazines !
The bottom line of the display will show you which keys to use
and what they do.
After the initial two screens are displayed, you can get HELP
by pressing [F1] (Function Key 1).

Release Notes S. Paulovich, Senior Publisher - DOS Version
==============================================================
A problem exists with the printing feature. If you try to
print without having a printer attached, online, and ready
for output - DOS will break in and interrupt the program.
This means that you'll have to restart MSTAR.
*** What's Upcoming ***
For the current DOS version of MORNING STAR, I plan on adding
a few enhancements. A couple will be minor, cosmetic pieces.
The major updates will be :
[1] Full mouse support. This will be used for menu selection
and articles will have "scroll bars" added.
[2] Better printer support. Work is underway to enhance
printing and eliminate the reminder that you need to have
a printer attached.
[3] User defined color schemes. Soon you'll be able to choose
background and foreground colors.
[4] Print to File. This will send articles to a file on disk
rather than the printer. It should be handy for importing
article text into word processors.
Work is currently underway on a version for Microsoft Windows.
This opens up a new realm, and one that presents a minor problem.
The DOS publisher isn't an accomplished artist. (In simple
terms, it means that I can't draw a stick figure accurately).
If anyone would like to donate their own original artwork
(PCX, TIFF, BMP or ICO formats) to appear in MORNING STAR
for Windows, please contact us at :
