         [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mPro-Net_Demo[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z is a demonstration version of [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mPro-Net V2.0C[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z, the
       latest version of our Schematic Capture program.  Pro-Net allows
       you to quickly and easily call up, place, move, or delete devices
       from a large library of parts, make connections by drawing a
       sequence of straight lines, bundling associated signal lines into
       busses, and labelling lines and busses.  The Post Processing
       functions allow you to create [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mNet Lists[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z for use by Pro-Board (our
       Printed Circuit Board layout package), [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mBills of Materials[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z (a
       sorted list of the parts you have placed on your schematic, with a
       count of each), [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mComponent Maps[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z (find the schematic page where your
       parts or gates are located), [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mPage Referencing[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z (tells where your
       signals are coming from or going to), and [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mError Checking[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z (detects
       output overloading, output-to-output connections, and sums total
       supply current).

         The most important thing to remember is that Prolific products
       are designed for seamless operation using either the mouse or
       keyboard.  [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mThere are no Pull-Down menus.[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z  The Right Mouse Button
       is used to Delete items which were Added with the Left Mouse
       Button.  You cannot Delete an object (device, line, signal name,
       text label, etc.) unless you are in the mode to Add the object.

         The Gadgets displayed at the bottom of the screen are called
       Intelligent Function Keys (IFK for short).  IFKs are dynamic; some
       or all of them will change as you move through the hierarchical
       menu structure to display the available commands.  IFKs can be
       activated with either the mouse or the corresponding Function Key
       at the top of the main keyboard.

         One more note before starting the Demo... because Pro-Net comes
       with almost a thousand Library Device definitions, faster
       directory listings are obtained by using Index files.  [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mDo not[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z
       [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mcopy, delete, or rename devices or schematic pages using AmigaDOS[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z,
       or you will not be able to access them.  If you accidentally alter
       the directory structure, the ARexx utility MKPNDIR.REXX in the
       Demo:Rexx drawer will reconstruct the Index files for any or all
       of the directories.


       [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1m[4mDEMO USAGE[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z
          To use the Demo, you can start from either the Workbench or
       CLI.  If you use the CLI, first [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mset a stack of 20000[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z.  At the
       opening screen, select the Config IFK and specify which drive or
       volume to use (the default is Demo:, the Volume name of this
       disk).

         Once the configuration has been specified, use the Escape key to
       Exit one level and select Edit (you may also place the mouse
       cursor over the IFKs at the bottom of the screen and click the
       Right Mouse Button).  There is a demo schematic, PNDEMO.1, which
       displays several of the features of Pro-Net.

         If you select NEW, you can create your own schematic from the
       supplied Library Parts (use SUBDIR and specify which Library to
       view), but you will not be able to save your creations with this
       demo software.  You can, however, create and save Device Symbols
       and Device Definitions and load them into schematic pages.  

         The Post Processing module can generate the Net List, Bill of
       Materials, Component Map, and Error Checking for any saved
       schematic.

         Net Lists are used by [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mPro-Board[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z, our Printed Circuit Board
       routing package with manual, guided, or fully automatic placement
       and routing.

         If you install to hard disk, we recommend that you ASSIGN a
       convenient Logical name for use in the Config screen's Data and
       Lib entries (i.e. "ASSIGN CAD: Work:Pro-Net") and place it in your
       User-StartUp or StartUp-Sequence.  Our text gadgets are customized
       so that you can Exit from any text requester using either Escape
       operation (the Escape key or clicking the Right Mouse Button when
       the cursor is over the IFKs at the bottom of the screen).
       Consequently, they do not operate the same as standard Amiga text
       gadgets.

         The file [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mProNet.Features[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z is taken from the manual and describes
       many the commands available.  The Printing and Plotting
       capabilities are provided in a separate program called [22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z[1mPlot-Net[22;23;24m[1;3v[1"z,
       which supports HPGL and some non-HPGL plotters, as well as
       printers (draft mode only).  ProNet.Features is almost 90K long;
       it would be a good idea to print this file out for reference.
