TM.SYSTEM -- TimeMaster II H.O. Clock Driver 1.1

Copyright (c) Jeff Hansen 1991-93

For ProDOS 8 users with Applied Engineering TimeMaster II clock cards, this
program is for you.  TM.SYSTEM replaces the clock driver code within
ProDOS, so that you'll no longer need an updated version of ProDOS when
it's day-of-the-week table (to calculate the year) expires.

Requirements:

     any Apple II capable of running ProDOS
     a TimeMaster II H.O. card (in "TimeMaster" mode)

Installation:

     Unpack with BinScii, then extract with ShrinkIt.
     Place a copy of "TM.SYSTEM" in the root directory of your ProDOS
          startup disk.  It should be the first ".SYSTEM" file in the
          directory (or before your program selector).
     Reboot (or run PRODOS).

Each time you boot, the new clock driver code will be installed (in memory)
within ProDOS.  TM.SYSTEM will then launch the next ".SYSTEM" program on
your startup disk.  If at anytime an error occurs (TimeMaster card missing
or in the wrong mode), TM.SYSTEM will abort, and attempt to launch your
program selector.  Also, don't rename TM.SYSTEM!  If you do, the program
won't be able to "find" itself in the root directory and launch the next
system program.

Version 1.1 changes the behavior of TM.SYSTEM if your card is not
installed, or not in "TimeMaster" mode.  Instead of doing a MLI Quit, it
launches the next ".SYSTEM" program.  That way the boot sequence continues
normally, except the new clock driver is not installed.  The only time the
Quit code is executed is when there is a disk error that prevents running
the next system program.
