  • LP.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 88.3 KB
  • LPDEMO.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 31.6 KB
  • LPHELP.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 32.6 KB

No need to put !ORDER.FRM, !README, LP.HLP, INTEGER.ILP, PROJECT.ILP, EXAMPLE.LP, PACKING.LST, LP.MAN and 2 more: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 97.8 KB on a 1 MB disk.

Steps
  1. Copy LPEDIT.COM, LP.EXE, LPDEMO.EXE, LPHELP.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.
  2. The .WK1 worksheets are not installed: open them from Lotus 1-2-3 with Menu → File → Retrieve.

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.
