KinKard
Copyright (c) Tom Miles
Version 2.0 Released July 1993
KinKard is a Shareware Program which may be distributed
in unmodified form (placed on BBS's) to anyone who wishes to evaluate it.
KinKard is a genealogy database designed to store information
about family history. For each family group, the information is
divided between two records, one record contains family lineage(parents,
children) while its companion record contains family data(birth death
notes). The program prints these records to two files, which can be
manipulated in a word processor to print (in two passes) lineage on one
side of a card and family data on the back of that card.
The program contains the usual features for adding records, editing
and searching them.
Although full featured, the unregistered version has a trial period (20
records) which can be repeated as often as desired. This limitation is
deleted in the registered version. The number of records is dependent on
disk space. The number of names that can be sorted is dependent upon
memory available. The program includes a feature for displaying memory
used for this purpose. The registered version includes a standalone
utility that can be used to combine files. With this utility records for
each family can be kept in separate files and copies of these files can
be combined into one large file.
To start the program, type "kin" at the prompt. The menu appears.
"H" Help provides all of the instructions needed to run the program.
The program is easy to learn and use.
