== TICKLE ==
This Program was designed to be used as a tickler reminder system
for those who like to stay on top of appointments or special
events. It was written for a multi user environment and uses explicit
record locking commands therefore the DOS "SHARE" command must be invoked
in order to allow it to function properly on a single user system.
The configuration file is merely a ASCII file that can be edited using
any text editor. A brief breakdown of this file is as follows:
0107 } These lines up to the words END COLORS are the 6 system
0107 } color setups. The first 2 characters on each line are
0107 } the foreground color for that sector and the last 2
1401 } characters on that line are the coresponding background
1501 } color for that sector. The words END COLORS are essential
0003 } and should never be removed from their location.
END COLORS
LPT1: } Default printer port, the colon(:) is necessary.
60 } Maximum lines per Printed page.
END PRINTER SETUP } This phrase necessary to terminate the file.
*NOTE - If you are using a monochrome monitor a file called tickle.mon
is included that should provide adequate support. Simply copy tickle.mon
to tickle.cfg from a dos prompt within the installed directory.
The userID "ALL" is reserved by the system and is not allowed
when Adding a new followup. If the userID is set to "ALL" then
you will have access to everyones followups. The <F> keys refer
to the FUNCTION KEYS. One final reminder, the program makes use
of the DOS "SORT" command for chronological sorting, therefore it
must be in the current path.
