READIT Version 2.3 Copyright (c) 1991 by Emerald Coast Software 2707 East 6th Place Panama City, FL 32401 (904) 785-8946 READIT is a general-purpose program for reading, browsing or searching ascii text files, program documentation, program manuals, letters, etc. on your computer's screen. READIT will allow you to read, browse or search for text in any length text file. You are not limited to just your memory (RAM) size. I have used it to browse and search through over 3 million (3,276,225) bytes (46,432 lines) of text in one file. You no longer have to load your word processor just to take a look at the letter you have stored on disk in ascii format. Just run READIT. You no longer need to use the "more" filter from DOS. Just run READIT. READIT displays 24 lines of text on the screen at a time. Keys for scrolling and paging are displayed on line 25 of the screen. You may scroll the screen one line or one screen full at a time, move to the last line of your file, move to the first line of your file, move to any line in your file or search for any text within your file. Computer requirements: ---------------------- READIT will run on almost any PC or close compatible with a minimum of 512Kb of memory and one floppy drive using MS_Dos or PC_DOS 2.1 or better. READIT will operate with Monochrome, CGA, EGA & VGA displays. Notice: I Have decided to include READIT with all of the software packages developed Emerald Coast Software and to allow registered users of these main packages to also become registered users of READIT (FREE) at the time they register the main package. Since I am including READIT free with all releases (new and updates) of our software packages, I feel that I owe it to all previously registered users of our software packages to become registerd users of READIT free of charge also if they so choose. Remember: If you are a registered user of any Emerald Coast Software package, you may become a registered user of READIT (free of charge) by writing or calling us and giving us your name and the registration number of your software package. We will then give you a License Authorization Code that will remove all notices of "Un-Licensed" from your screen and your copy will show on the screen that you are a licensed user of READIT. If you do not have a copy of READIT, you may download it from many of the BBS's across the USA including our own Emerald Coast Software Support BBS, or, a copy on a 360Kb formatted 5 1/4 inch disk may be ordered from us for a charge of $3.50 to cover the cost of the media, shipping and handling. Florida residents must add $.23 for Sales Tax for a total of $3.73. If you are not yet a registered user of any of our software packages, you may become a registered user of the main software programs and READIT at the same time when you register the main package. If you wish to become a registered user of READIT only, and are not a registered user of any other software package developed by Emerald Coast Software, you should mail $7 in US funds to: Emerald Coast Software 2707 East 6th Place Panama City, FL 32401-5227 Phone (904) 785-8946 If possible, please use the registration form in the file LICENSE.PRN.
