booting the DOS disk and after the A> prompt typing BASICA and pressing the

<ENTER> key. After the OK prompt,remove the DOS disk and replace it with the
distribution disk, type LOAD"MENU and'press the <ENTER> key. Then type RUN
or simply press the {F2} key. Now you can select the program you would like
to use from the menu. Some users may want to create a system disk that has

BASrCA and the program files on it to avoid disk swapping. In addition,
creating an AUTOEXEC file will make the programs even easier to use.

 To createan AUTOEXEC file, and thus a disk that will automatically load
th6 MENU program, follow these simple instructions:

1. Create a disk with DOS and BASICA on it by following the instructions in
 the IBM users manual.

2. Put the original distribution disk in drive A and your new system disk in
 drive B.

 3. From the A> prompt type: COPY *.BAS B:
 4. Remove the original distribution disk and store it in a safe location as
 a back-up copy. Put your new system disk, which now contains the three
 BASrCA program files, in drive A.

 5. From the A> prompt type: COPY CON: AUTOEXEC.BAT <ENTER>
 BASICA MENU <ENTER>
 {F6} <ENTER>

 Now when you turn your computer on, or issue the {alt} {ctrl} {del}
 reboot key sequence on the IBM-PC, with your new system disk in drive A,.the

 MENU program will automatically run and you can select the program that you
 wish to use.
 Any screen of information displayed on the monitor can easily be copied

 to a printer by pressing the SHIFT {+} and {PrtSc) keys on the IBM keyboard.
 There are no hardcopy functions in either program, so using this function will

 be helpful when you wish to maintain a copy of your analysis.
 If at any point in the program you want to quit, press {ctrl} {break}

 and then type RUN"MENU to start at the beginning. Be aware that pressing
