Dear Shareware User:

      This is the readme file for Your Menu, Sir v2.0.  It is by far
one of the most flexible, efficient, and easy to use menu program
out there!  The best way to find out is to try it yourself.

      The program is shareware.  It is fully functioning and rivals
most menu programs.  Registration is $25.  The registered full
version (2.0f) has many additional and powerful features lack in
most menu programs, such as recording and displaying who log into
what when, and password protection, as well as allowing you to
use the full 640K of memory.

      You are free to evaluate the program for 30 days.  If you like

       want to print out the YOURMENU.DAT.
       You can do this from the menu.


     The following are VERY brief instructions on how to use the program.
     The registered user will have a full manual with many examples.
     It may be easier for you to read v1.0 to v2.0 rather than the reverse.


     VERSION 2.0   (The following are additions to v1.2 following)

     - Commenting by specifying {COMMENT} as command line.
       Ex. Welcome to Your Menu, Sir v2.0.
           {COMMENT}
     - Reread the menu data after changing it.
       Ex. Reread menu data after running editor from menu to change it.
       {REREAD}
     - Passing parameter to program by >message.
       The input will be appended to the command line.
       Without message, the default message is "Enter Command Parameter:".
       Ex. Search for a file
           Filefind >Enter file to find:
           If you enter *.WQ1, then the command line is Filefind *.WQ1.
     - Pausing before returning to menu by using <.
       If there is a >, you must use that first before the <.
       Ex. View all Quattro Pro files in drive C one page at a time.
           dir C:\*.WQ1 /s /p <
       After the last screen it will tell you the application is finish
       and wait for you to press any key to return to menu.
     - An easy way of remembering this is > means going to application,
       and < means returning from application.
     - Error messages are made self-explanatory.


     VERSION 1.2   (The following are additions to v1.0 following)

     - Command line extended to 70 characters.
     - Working directory is automatically changed to what's specified
       at command line.
       Ex.  Boxer          ---  Powerful programmer's editor
            C:\BOXER\ b.exe
       - Case is unimportant.
       - The first part is the drive, follow by path, follow by
         a SPACE (this is important) then the application.
       - If no directory changes is needed, simply specified application.
            Ex. Map of Memory  ---  Shows programs in memory
                mapmem.exe


     VERSION 1.0

     - Run your favorite editor and load up the data file YOURMENU.DAT
     - Edit it with the following instructions:
          - A menu title (<=20 characters) begins with a - (ex.-Games)
          - Anything else is an application:
               Application has a description (<=75 characters)
               Follow by the command line (<=40 characters)
               Empty lines are ignored
     - Change your menu simply by copying and pasting your menus
       to the desired location
     - The description of the application is completely free form.
     - After you edit the data file (you can always come back and change it)
          go to DOS and type YOURMENU and voila!

     - I have given you a sample data file.
     - All the programs chosen are excellent (in this author's opinions)
       They either comes with DOS or are Shareware.
     - The shareware programs are all available for anonymous FTP at:
          garbo.uwasa.fi or oak.oakland.edu

NOW WHAT?
