Orchard House is a DOS shell that requires a 386+ machine with 167K of extended memory available under DOS 5 or better. Triple Shell, a version for 286- machines is also available. Both will release time slices to Windows, OS2 & Desqview. These programs are designed to be simple to use yet complex of function, combining tasks that ordinarily must be done as separate steps under DOS into one quick operation. TS & OH are far more than simple hand holding programs for DOS dummies. If you are an experienced intuitive computer user, it is possible to load Triple Shell or Orchard House and just use it. All the hot keys are described briefly in help screens. The documentation is written mostly as a reference for specific questions and to let you know of capabilities you might not have suspected. For instance, these programs have several modes of operation that can be more useful to one sort of activity than to others. In considering these modes, I suspect you will find it helpful to read the "Using Orchard House" section of OH.DOC. The following information is added to fullfil Simtel's requirements: No special installation is required. Simply unpack and execute OH.EXE. Orchard House is shareware. See file REGISTER.FRM for registration costs and proceedures. This archive may be distributed freely provided all files are present. The easiest way to reach me is by my Fido address: 1:105/37. My street address is given in both OH.DOC and REGISTER.FRM.
