No need to put
CAPSYS.DOC, MAKEFILE, CAPSYS.C:
they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 17.9 KB on a 1 MB disk.
Steps
- Copy CAPSYS.EXM to A:\SOFT. It is a System Manager application: register it in App Manager with F2 (Add), giving the full path (for example A:\SOFT\CAPSYS.EXM).
- The 200LX takes 8 EXM applications at most. Check with F8 (List) in App Manager: an asterisk in the Status column means the quota is full and you will need MoreEXM.
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 author's instructions
[3] Installation
Copy CAPLX.EXM to your preferred directory and register
a start key (Hot Key) for it on MoreEXM. Assuming that you
copied the file to A:\BIN\ directory and the start key is
[ALT]+[F3] (keycode 6A00), please add a following line to
MOREEXM.INI:
a:\bin\capsys.exm,6a00,1,CapSys
Reboot the system to make this change to take effect. It is
important to set the third parameter to '1' (suppress
clear-screen). Otherwise CAPSYS captures a blank screen.
If you like to use another key, substitute 6a00 with the code
of that key. Running CHKKEY.COM from DOS can give you a
keycode of any pressed key.
Note: If you would prefer to use [Fn]+[C] or [PRTSC] to start
CAPSYS, you need to use a key remapping program such
as EXkey or Key200.
