The manual which is on the disk consist of excerpts from
|
||
the actual 714 page manual which is shipped with each
|
||
BetterBASIC package. The file called READ.ME is the
|
||
manual file. This "demo" manual is approximately 100
|
||
pages long and details all of the major features of
|
||
BetterBASIC so that you can use the sample disk to
|
||
evaluate BetterBASIC.

If your printer is on line then the manual should start
|
||
printing on the printer and be visible on the video
|
||
display. After the manual is finished printing you
|
||
should press the Ctrl and PrtSc keys to turn off the
|
||
printer.

The commands which are not listed in this manual are
|
||
similar to the commands in the PC BASIC manual and are
|
||
not listed to save space on the disk. All BetterBASIC
|
||
commands are, of course, fully documented in the
|
||
714-page manual shipped with BetterBASIC.
