How to install it

What to send to the palmtop saves 3.8 KB

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

  • snake.exe → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 10.6 KB
  • SNAKE.ICN → A:\SOFT icono, junto a su aplicación 200 B

No need to put SNAKE.BBS, SNAKE.DOC: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 3.8 KB on a 1 MB disk.

Steps
  1. Copy snake.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 .ICN files are icons: they go in the same folder as their application.

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.

The author's instructions 
easier way is to install it into your App Manager:

1. Start App Manager by hitting the blue "More" key.

Send to my palmtop

The palmtop must be waiting before you press the button, or the transfer will fail. It is the palmtop that announces it is ready, not the other way round.
