Disk No: 1101 Program Title: UTILITY POTLUCK PC-SIG version: 1.1 Are you looking for a nifty little gimmick to customize your own shareware release or perhaps the diskettes that you share with friends or members of your local users group? If so, DISK SIGN just might be the ticket! DISK SIGN is a simple, inexpensive package that lets a user place a customized message of up to three lines in length into the DOS directory. Thus the message is displayed each time a directory (dir) command is invoked on the diskette. The special title or business name is displayed in vertical columns and outlined in borders for emphasis. Operating this package is neat and easy and it utilizes only minute amounts of available diskette memory in the process. Certainly one of the more clever and innovative promotional or marketing ideas to come around in a while! So...you say you're worried about your wife, Mother, or the FBI finding those computer files containing your secret love letters to Jody Foster?? Well, you need no longer fear because CIPHER is here!! CIPHER is a powerful, inexpensive encryption package that turns any desired file into an unintelligible jumble of random characters. Only you possess the key that can unscramble it back into a legible form -- an encoding key that can consist of up to 50 printable characters. And, unlike most other file encryption schemes, CIPHER is for all intents and purposes unbreakable and is based upon sophisticated techniques similar to those employed by U.S. Government agencies! AUTONUM is a simple, useful program for assigning sequential numbers to such items as purchase orders, invoices, statements, checks, memos, and many other business forms. It works by using batch files to effectively automate the numbering process and reduce the possibility of repetitive errors. Batch files can either be accessed by function key assignments or by short descriptive names. The batch files make the necessary directory changes, initiate AUTONUM, complete the required procedure, and then return the user to a specified directory. The maximum number of characters that can be used in a given application is seven. If you're tired of typing multiple keystrokes to execute common DOS commands, then MASTERDOS can help relieve your keyboard-cramped fingers. MASTERDOS has selectable terminal emulations and can copy, change drives, erase files, locate files globally, reorder files on-screen, type files, and a host of other useful features. MASTERDOS reduces common DOS commands to single keystrokes making the overall operation of your DOS-based machine a breeze. Learning MASTERDOS requires minimal training time and on-line help is only a function key away, anytime you're forgetful. Once established, master configurations are stored as data files to eliminate the necessity to re-enter the data. Six pages of written documentation cover the basics of operation in an understandable format. Usage: Programming Utilities, Business Utilities, DOS Level Utilities. Special Requirements: None. How to Start: Type GO (press enter). Suggested Registration: $25.00 for AUTONUM, $35.00 + $5.00 for shipping for MASTERDOS, $20.00 for DISK SIGN, $40.00 for CIPHER.
