No need to put GLOSSARY, CORE.4, CORE1.4, HELP.4, LX.4, VIDEO.4, ORIGINAL.ZIP, READ.ME: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 72.0 KB on a 1 MB disk.

Steps
  1. Copy CORE.COM, CORE1.COM, M4.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.
