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

• INSTALL.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 9.0 KB
• PEP.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 115.1 KB
• VGASLIDE.BAT → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 25 B
• HELIX.DAT → A:\_DAT configuración 1.3 KB

No need to put README.DOC, WHATSNEW.DOC, FILE_ID.DIZ, GENDER.BIN, KEY.BIN, MELON.BIN, SCREAM.BIN, SCAN.BIN and 100 more: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 505.8 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy INSTALL.EXE, PEP.EXE, VGASLIDE.BAT 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. Copy HELIX.DAT to A:\_DAT, where the 200LX looks for configuration. Open it with Memo and adjust it before use.
3. If you edit a configuration file on the palmtop, make sure you leave a newline at the end: some programs swallow the last line without saying a word.

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.

GETTING STARTED

It takes just three simple steps to get PEP up and running:

     Step 1:  Make a directory for PEP on your hard disk and copy all of
the PEP files into that directory. (You can also install PEP on a floppy
disk provided that it has at least a 720 kilobyte capacity.)

     Step 2:  Run PEP's INSTALL utility and answer the questions that it
asks. This will set up PEP to run properly with your hardware
configuration.

     Step 3:  Run PEP.

If you have a color VGA display, there is a slide show that you can run
which provides a brief introduction to PEP. To view it, after installing
PEP, type "VGASLIDE" at the DOS prompt.

The ASCII file TUTORIAL.DOC contains three simple lessons for beginning
users of PEP. Each project is described keystroke by keystroke, and a full
explanation is provided for every step.


ON-LINE HELP

When you are using PEP, you can access the documentation at any time
through the context-sensitive help facility. For example, to obtain
information about any menu command, just highlight that command with the
cursor and press the F1 key. PEP will take you directly to the relevant
section of the manual. When there are cross references in the manual, you
can click with the mouse or use the GOTO command to view the referenced
section. For complete information on using the help facility, press F1 to
activate Help and then press F1 a second time.


DOCUMENTATION

The complete documentation for PEP is contained in the files having the
extension TXT. CONTENTS.TXT is the table of contents; CHAPT1.TXT contains
chapter one of the manual, and so forth. These are ASCII files and you can
use the DOS COPY command to make a printed version; for example, to print
chapter one type:

         COPY CHAPT1.TXT PRN
