MD-BASIC Read.Me File
=====================
Thank you for your interest in MD-BASIC, the structured language development
system for Applesoft BASIC programmers. This demo contains the following
files, and all must reside in the same directory in order for the demo to run:
DEMO - The program you run to start the demo (BASIC)
DEMO.B - The MD-BASIC source code for the demo program (text)
DEMO.OBJ - A few routines to make the demo go faster (binary)
SAMPLE - A sample program created by MD-BASIC (BASIC)
SAMPLE.B - The MD-BASIC source code for the SAMPLE program (text)
You can distribute copies of the MD-BASIC demo by copying or uploading
the MDBDEMO.SHK file (which contains the above listed files, and this
DEMO.READ.ME file). Portions or modifications of the demo may not be
distributed -- the entire original set must stay together.
To run the demo, boot into ProDOS BASIC (BASIC.SYSTEM) and run the DEMO
program. Example:
]-DEMO
Sit back and enjoy. The actual demonstration portion of the program takes
about ten minutes, though some say they were left wanting more when it was
all over.

"If you program in Applesoft without MD-BASIC, you'd have to be crazy!
Throw your flowcharts and aspirin away."
