No need to put 00readme.1st, lxstat85.asc, lxstat85.b5, whatsnew.189, whatsnew.194: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 40.0 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy lxlite.com, lxstat.com to A:\SOFT. They are DOS programs: run them from the DOS icon, or add A:\SOFT to the PATH in C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT to call them by name.

Derived from the package contents and the 200LX conventions. It installs to A: on purpose: C: is a RAM disk and every byte there is memory taken from the system.

The installation is completed by simply copying the executable
file LXSTAT.COM into any directory specified in your PATH.

The most important states you might like to check frequently
are selectively displayed when LXSTAT is invoked without any
option and argument.

More detailed information is printed if an unix-style switch
-v (verbose) is used, i.e.

	LXSTAT -v

A SYNTAX ERROR triggers the output of a GENERAL DESCRIPTION
of PROGRAM USAGE. e.g.

	LXSTAT -x

The option -h or the argument H[elp] triggers output of a
LIST OF EXAMPLES. That is

	LXSTAT Help

Since there are more than one screenful of lines to be printed
to the screen, they are sorted non-exclusively under four main
categories: "Display", "Serial", "Power" and "Extra".

That is to say, by typing the following four lines, ALL
available information is covered:

	LXSTAT D[isplay]
	LXSTAT S[erial]
	LXSTAT P[ower]
	LXSTAT E[xtra]

Note that all arguments and options used in LXSTAT are CASE
IRRELEVANT and only the FIRST LETTER is needed to distinguish
among different arguments.

With "D[isplay]", all display/screen/video status are printed.

With "S[erial]", all information concerning current states of
the serial port are printed.

With "P[ower]", all information relevant to power management
are shown.

E[xtra] information that are difficult to be sorted under the
above three categories will be displayed if "E[xtra] is given
as argument. The letter 'x' may be used instead of 'e'.

There are more other arguments defined to constraint the
information being inquired. A list of examples will be
printed to the screen by using the argument "Help". I.e.

	LXSTAT H[elp]

or

	LXSTAT -h
