    Version 2.00  20 March 1992


This is a simple phonebook entry and script to quickly
download the latest news from the Associated Press
Headlines News service on Compuserve.

Included is a phonebook entry (csnews.xwp) that must
be placed in your Crosstalk phonebook directory. Also
included are text & compiled versions of the script
(csnews.xws & csnews.xwp) that must be placed in
your Crosstalk script directory.

To use... create an icon in your program shell (program
manager, Norton Desktop, etc.) similar to this...
xtalk.exe csnews.xwp.

You must enter your Compuserve ID and passwords in the
appropriate boxes in the "Session" dialogbox.

When you run the xtalk/script program... the script will
automatically dialup Compuserve, download the latest
headline news from AP, disconnect and then call the
windows notepad to display the news.

Have fun!
