!README!.DOC - HORN8 disk of HP 48 software - Feb 19, 1993
               Collected & annotated by Joseph K. Horn, aka [-jkh-].

Please read all of this little document before bombarding me with questions
answered here.  Thank you.

This is Joe Horn's personal collection of favorite HP 48 goodies, disk #8.  It
contains many excellent programs by many excellent programmers.  Most of these
files were downloaded from HP's Corvallis bulletin board system.

The files are contained in subject-oriented subdirectories.  List FILEINFO.SRC
for a complete listing of all the files and a brief description of each.  4DOS
was used to "attach" these descriptions onto every file and subdirectory on
the disk; if you use 4DOS, you will enjoy using it with the Goodies Disks.

   Note: 4DOS is not the same as DOS 4; 4DOS is a COMMAND.COM shareware
   substitute.  It is a registered trademark of JP Software, Inc.  It makes
   DOS act the way you've always wanted it to.  If you don't have it, get it!
*  (See SEND.BAT on this disk for address & phone number of JP Software). *
   On the other hand, MS DOS version 4 (called DOS 4) sucks.  If you have it,
   upgrade to DOS 5 or 6 immediately!  NDOS is a dehydrated version of 4DOS
   that comes with Norton Utilities version 6, and shows the same file
   descriptions as 4DOS.  It's better than nothing.

Files with the same name before the extension are all related.  For example,
FRED would be a downloadable binary; FRED.SRC would be its source code
(possibly commented); FRED.DOC would be its documentation; etc.  To copy a
file into the HP 48, you MUST specify the entire name; e.g. "FRED.LIB".

All listable files have their authors' names somewhere in the first few lines.
If I couldn't figure out who wrote it, it'll say "By ?".

I have tried to provide documentation of some sort for every file on
this disk. If you know who wrote a file "by ?", please let me know so
that proper credit may be given.  See CREDITS.DOC for credit updates.

Apologies to those whose files I accidentally mangled or miscredited.
Warm thanks to all authors whose works lurk herein.  Good job!

These files are not guaranteed in any way; use at your own risk.
