--GENERAL--

ID is an Interface for DOS with menus etc...

ID is FreeWare.
You may distribute and use it freely.
You must not modify the files in the package idos262.zip in anyway,
including this file.


--TO NICE PEOPLE--

If you are NICE & COOL(!), send me a postcard so I can know where my
program travel...(see address at chapter:"3) BUGS" ) and you can tell me
by the way what you dislike, what you would like to see in the next
version...



1)HOW TO USE IT
--RUNNING ID--

Do not launch IDKERNEL.EXE, this is not your job!
ID.EXE will do that for you...
so, please launch ID.EXE to run the program.


ID is an Interface for DOS with menus etc...
Some 2 functions are not available by now,I'm working on it.
                ( PKzip and Arj launcher)

The interface is basic :

--DISPLAY--

Files are sorted this way : (2 columns)

a.txt                           b.txt
c.txt                           d.txt
...

--KEYS--

Use the cursor keys to move the cursor :) which is the pink line.
Press SpaceBar to select a file.

Then activate the menus with ALT+Red Letter:
        i.e.: in "Files" F is in red..press ALT+F to activate the File menu...

ESC quits or stops most actions during execution.

Other keys are always written in the menus (shortcuts) or in the ABOUT box.


2)PROBLEMS??
--DISK ERROR--

If your disks has problems (defective floppy...) ID will not crash
but it will stop immediately telling you the encountered problem.
(for example: CRC error in data..)


--MEMORY--

ID might not run if you have less than 500Kb.
Actually ID will start and then stop immediately.
This is not a bug, anyway the next version will need less memory.
(about 300Kb)




3)BUGS?? :)

Known bugs : none!!
Found bugs : If you find any, please report the bug
(ID version, what you were doing and the message that was displayed then :
