PDS*QUOTE.DOC FEATURES.DOC - Version 4.10
This document provides the page numbers in the new QUOTE.DOC
PDS*QUOTE documentation file for various new features added over the
last several version releases. You can use Option 4 of the new
INSTALL program to selectively print pages of the new instruction
manual via the Shareware LIST.COM program. Before you can access the
QUOTE.DOC file, you MUST have used the INSTALL program Option 1, to
initially install, or Option 2, to upgrade the PDS*QUOTE
installation. Both of these INSTALL Options uncompress the
QUOTEDOC.EXE file to create the QUOTE.DOC file.
After the installation or upgrade is complete, the LIST.COM program
will be on the same sub-directory or disk as the QUOTE.DOC file. If
you prefer, you can change directory to the sub-directory containing
the QUOTE.DOC and LIST.COM files and type LIST QUOTE.DOC (Enter) in
place of using Option 4 of the INSTALL program. Please note the
registration information on the F1 Help screen for the LIST.COM
program. You will want to register your copy of LIST.COM as you will
find it a VERY handy utility to list and print ASCII files.
Use "/page-num" to cause LIST to search for the desired page numbers
in the QUOTE.DOC file. Place the top of the section you wish to
print at the top of the screen and press Alt/M. Place the end of the
section on the bottom line of the LIST screen and press Alt/B. Then,
press Alt/P to print.
NOTE - All page numbers are of the format "Page 3 - 5" with spaces on
BOTH sides of the hyphen (-). In using the LIST / search feature,
you MUST include those 2 spaces when searching for a page number.
Each page starts with a Form Feed to eject the previous page. You
can toggle the Form Feed off/on with Alt/J. If you wish to print a
series of pages, you probably want the Form Feed turned on.
