These features are discussed in detail in the user's manual.

If you want to get started fast  there is a section in the user's
manual  titled  "Getting  Started,  Fast".  This  is  a  one page
description  of how  to get  started without  reading the  entire
manual.

The  following is  a list  of the  files that  should be  on your
distribution disk:

        1. GOLFSKOR.EXE         This is the executable program.

        2. GOLFSKOR.HLP         The internal help file used by
                                the program's context sensitive
                                help feature.

        3. GOLFSKOR.DOC         The Golf Scorekeeper user's manual
                                (20 Pages long) This should print
                                to  any  printer  using  the  DOS
                                print  command.  (You  might have
                                some problems on laser printers.)

        4. REGISTER.FRM         The form used for registering the
                                software. (Read the "Registration
                                Information" section of the user's
                                manual for more info)

        5. README               This file.

         ************ System Requirements **************

The Golf Scorekeeper will run on any IBM PC or compatible. You
will need at least 256K of RAM and DOS 2.0 or higher. The system
will run off of a floppy but will be somewhat slower. The same is
true for some CGA monitors when you have to use snow control.
256K of RAM is a minimum, it is best if you have more. This is
because The Golf Scorekeeper keeps all player and course data in
memory and with only 256K you are limited to a combination of
roughly 250 courses and players. If you use a mouse just load in
the generic driver that comes with your particular mouse.

The only known problem with hardware is the IBM 8514 monitor. If
you run the program on this monitor you might not get anything on
the screen. I am however, looking into this problem and hope to
have a solution soon.


            *********** Version History *************

Version 1.0 was the original version of The Golf Scorekeeper.

Version 1.01 -
        Fixed the automatic generation  of player numbers so that
        old numbers could be reused.

Version 1.1 -
        Added  the  Min  and  Max   points  caps  to  the  Points
        Equivalents option off of the Set-up menu.

        Added the 8 special hot key functions, 4 regular "F" keys
        and 4 <ALT> "F" keys. Press and hold the <ALT> key to see
        the <ALT> functions.

Version 1.2 -
        Changed  the  functionality  of  Change  Player Status to
        Change Player Info.

        Fixed the input fields on the player definition screen so
        that  they would  automatically  put  the input  in mixed
        case.

Version 1.3 -
        Added the  cutoff date to the  team scores report option.
        This  will insure  that only  the latest  scores are used
        when generating the team scores report.

Version 2.0 -
        Fixed the team scores report  so that the relative points
        calculation used the points  that the player was shooting
        for  when the  latest score  was entered  and not the new
        adjusted points.  This change required  a modification of
        the players record thus making older version GLFMEMBR.DAT
        files incompatible with this version.


IMPORTANT * IMPORTANT * IMPORTANT * IMPORTANT * IMPORTANT * IMPORTANT

The file GLFMEMBR.DAT  created by a version prior  to Version 2.0
will  not be  compatible with  Version 2.0.  If you  are using  a
version of  The Golf Scorekeeper  that is less  than 2.0 you  can
convert your files with a conversion utility that is available to
all registered users.
