How to install it

What to send to the palmtop saves 20.4 KB

These are the files you need. You can send them from the package contents below.

  • LJ2GEM.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 20.1 KB
  • FON2GEM.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 19.1 KB
  • VIEWGEM.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 46.2 KB
  • RENAMGEM.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 13.1 KB

No need to put GEMCONV.DOC, REGISTER.DOC: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 20.4 KB on a 1 MB disk.

Steps
  1. Copy LJ2GEM.EXE, FON2GEM.EXE, VIEWGEM.EXE, RENAMGEM.EXE 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.
