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

• MANUAL.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 49.4 KB
• NUMBERS.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 62.6 KB

No need to put LFACTOR.OBJ, CMPRE.OBJ, LADD.OBJ, LCOPRIME.OBJ, LDIV.OBJ, READ.ME, LGCD.OBJ, LLCM.OBJ and 13 more: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 192.7 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy MANUAL.EXE, NUMBERS.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.

To install the calculator,  just  copy  the files NUMBERS.EXE and
          NUMBERS.HLP to the drive and directory in which you want the pro-
          gram to reside. No other files are needed to use the calculator.


          1.4  Start the Calculator


          Start the calculator by typing  NUMBERS <RET>. There are two com-
          mand line parameters:

             1.  /bw sets the screen to monochrome mode.

                 This option should be  used  when  a monochrome monitor is
                 connected to a color graphics card.

             2.  /n prevents the help screens to be loaded.

          Upon  first  start  up, the system acts on certain default values
          for number of primes generated, number of seeds for compositeness
          test, etc. All these  values  can be changed from within the pro-
          gram. You can save  your  default  values  in a file NUMBERS.CFG,
          which the system will use on the next start-up.


          1.5  Operation


          The system uses a 80 x 25 text window. 23 lines are used as work-
          ing area; line 24 is kept blank, and line 25 functions as message
          area.

          The  system  is  menu driven, and few instructions are needed for
          operation. After initialization, you are asked to  press <RETURN>
          for the main menu. This menu, as all others, displays  two header
          lines, a menu title, and several numbered lines  of  options. The
          screen also shows instructions as to how to proceed. Selection is
          done by either pressing  the  option  number,  or using the arrow
          keys to move a lighted bar to the desired line and  then pressing
          <RETURN>.
