QUICK INSTRUCTIONS: *******BOOK: Book displays ASCII files. Type BOOK.DOC at the prompt to activate the program and display its documentation. For more information, press "A" during the program to call up the menu. Or, you can type BOOK /? when you return to the prompt for help. *******CHECKSUM: Included with this .ZIP pack is another program I have written: CHECKSUM. Checksum is a freeware utility I developed and decided some people out there might find it useful. It is small but powerful (when used right). Run RUNME1ST.BAT before you attempt to use the program. The batch file, which also has several REM lines of explanation, merely renames the CHECKSUM files, which have been renamed so I could upload these programs to places that evidentally have files called "Checksum" already. Because of the unique nature of Checksum, I would like many people to use it--as many as possible. Therefore, put these three files in a .ZIP (preferred) archive for uploading: CHECKSUM.EXE CHECKSUM.DOC CHECKSUM.321 Please note that you should NOT include this file, Read1st, or any other file in this archive, since they are not a part of CHECKSUM. Furthermore, delete RunMe1st.BAT after you use it. It is not a formal part of Checksum and has no reason being here other than getting Checksum to you without dealing with "duplicate filename detected" messages from bulletin boards around the country.
