旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � The X-Files � � Automated Episode Guide v1.3 � � 32 bit Extended DOS Version � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴켸 NOTE: As of 06/01/97 this program is *FREEWARE*!!! Whooooohooooo!

Email wmorgan@slinknet.com for my mailing address. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � What This Program Does � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴켸 This is a full-featured DOS Text mode program that makes it easy to view info on the popular TV show, The X-Files. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� � How To Run This Program � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� From the DOS command line type the name of the .EXE executable. After a brief intro screen, you will see a menu with various program options listed. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� � How To Use This Program � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� Use the cursor keys to move up and down the menu.

When you are on a screen of information, hit any key to go back to the menu you were on when you chose that menu option. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � The History of This DOS Text Program � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴켸 Version 0.999 - Beta version. Honed the mechanics of the program. Version 1.0 - First release version of this 32 bit DOS program. Version 1.2 - Updated the episode data to include the complete Season 3 Version 1.3 - Updated the episode data to include the complete Season 4 Changed the program from SHAREWARE to FREEWARE! Added a "Saying:" field to the episode screen. Removed the Books/Comics section. Altered the episode screen for clarity. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� � Known Bugs & Problems � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� If you don't have ANSI enabled under DOS, the episode information is displayed on the screen in white text, instead of the "light green" text that I programmed. This has absolutely no ill effect (unless you're color blind to white or green. Fix for the former, load ANSI.SYS. Fix for the latter, unload ANSI.SYS ) 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � Swatting Any Pesky Insects � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴켸 If you encounter any problems with this program (either bugs in the actual mechanics of the program, or misspellings and/or incorrect info in the various episode data fields) please drop me a line at one of e-mail addresses in the last section of this document. I will try and implement the fix in the next version of the program that I release. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � Big Plans For The Future � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴켸 Now that these program is *FREEWARE*, I've shelved any plans to add new features. Quit whining, this doesn't mean I won't get re-motivated in the future and start spackling junk back onto the bloated thing. Also, if a show is still in production, I will continue to release updates after each season (USA) is completed. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � Other Automated Episode Guides � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴켸 TV Show Name DOS Filename OS/2 Text OS/2 PM Win Filename ======================================================================== Mystery Science MSTDOS##.ZIP MSTOS2##.ZIP MST_PM##.ZIP MSTWIN##.ZIP Theater 3000 Win32/Win95-->MSTW32##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The X-Files XFLDOS##.ZIP XFLOS2##.ZIP XFL_PM##.ZIP XFLWIN##.ZIP Win32/Win95-->XFLW32##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quantum Leap QLPDOS##.ZIP QLPOS2##.ZIP QLP_PM##.ZIP QLPWIN##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Star Trek: TNGDOS##.ZIP TNGOS2##.ZIP TNG_PM##.ZIP TNGWIN##.ZIP Next Generation ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Star Trek: TOSDOS##.ZIP TOSOS2##.ZIP TOS_PM##.ZIP TOSWIN##.ZIP Original Series ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Deep Space 9 DS9DOS##.ZIP DS9OS2##.ZIP DS9_PM##.ZIP DS9WIN##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Simpsons SMPDOS##.ZIP SMPOS2##.ZIP SMP_PM##.ZIP SMPWIN##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Babylon 5 BA5DOS##.ZIP BA5OS2##.ZIP BA5_PM##.ZIP BA5WIN##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beavis and BVS_PM##.ZIP BVSWIN##.ZIP Butt-Head Win32/Win95-->BVSW32##.ZIP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Star Trek: VOY_PM##.ZIP VOYWIN##.ZIP Voyager Win32/Win95-->VOYW32##.ZIP ======================================================================== *ALL* versions are available on the FTP site at ftp.slinknet.com, which is where I release all Snake-Byte programs.
