PURPOSE CAT-MED is a database of common feline symptoms and
|
||
ailments. It allows you to quickly determine what a
|
||
set of symptoms might mean, and also to see what
|
||
symptoms may be associated with a given ailment.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
QUICK To install on a floppy or hard drive, simply copy all
|
||
START the distribution files to a directory of your choice.
|
||
|
||
If you are upgrading from a previous version, you
|
||
should install the new version into a new directory
|
||
or disk and then delete all the files from the old
|
||
version. Several files from the old version are no
|
||
longer used. You'll have to setup you colors again
|
||
if you don't like the factory defaults.
|
||
|
||
Start the program by typing CATMED at the DOS prompt.
|
||
|
||
If you want to force the screens to displayed in
|
||
Monochrome, start the program by typing CATMED /M
|
||
instead. This should not be necessary on monochrome
|
||
systems, since CAT-MED will detect what type of
|
||
video card you have and display it's screens
|
||
accordingly.
|
||
|
||
