Lookup your books and magazines with the simplicity of the traditional card
catalog, but with the efficiency of the computer! PC-CARD CATALOG (PCCC) is a
cataloging program designed to provide your personal, church, school, or
corporate library with a powerful on-line catalog that is easy to use, yet
sophisticated enough for academic research.
PCCC allows searching by TITLE, AUTHOR, and SUBJECT. Items may be "scrolled
through," forward and backward using <Arrow> and <Page> keys. You may search
for specific strings by simply typing them on-screen. Searches are not case-
sensitive and misspellings are usually "close enough." The user may jump
between catalogs (AUTHOR, TITLE, SUBJECT) with a single keystroke.
Librarians will appreciate the fast, efficient entry and editing of cataloging
information plus the intuitive menu access to all activities. PCCC automatic-
ally files items in AACR2 (that is, "library-", not strict "ASCII-") order.
PCCC is designed to run on the PC family of computers preferably with a hard
disk. Both color and monochrome monitors are supported. A printer is useful,
though not necessary. PCCC requires 256K of RAM.
The PCCC documentation will fit in the small "computer-style" binders and may
be printed using the following command:
COPY PCCC.DOC PRN
To install PCCC onto your computer use the INSTALL.BAT program provided. Be
sure you have read the "Getting Started" section of the documentation. Use
the command as follows:
INSTALL A: C: PCCC
This will copy and create the necessary files from drive "A:" onto your fixed
disk drive "C:" in sub-directory "PCCC". After completing the installation,
you may run PCCC by typing the command:
PCCC
The following files are included with PCCC:
PCCC.EXE - PC-CARD CATALOG program.
PCCCINST.EXE - Creates configuration, data, and index files.
PCCC.DOC - Installation, operation, and reference manual.
INSTALL.BAT - Automatic installation routine.
CONFIG.SYS - A necessary "boot up" file.
README - This text file.
PC-CARD CATALOG is a Shareware program. That means: 1) the above set of files
may be freely copied and given away so long as no alterations are made to any
of the files. 2) To continue using PCCC beyond a brief trial period, users
are expected to register. The registration fee is $39.00 (US funds). Please
