ABOUT - A GS Desktop Application.

Here is a re-release of the ABOUT program I co-wrote a while back.
Due to a quirk between the ROM 01 and ROM 03 handling of the serial
ports, the old version of ABOUT thinks that the printer is offline all the
time on a ROM 03 GS.

This has now been fixed.

ABOUT was written for my local User Group, to read the documenation
files that accompany PDS software (be they in Text, or AppleWorks, or
APW Source, or Teach formats).  ABOUT can also do text dumps for quick 
and dirty printouts.

ABOUT will also act as a Program Launcher as well.

Freeware - Send me a message if you like it!!
