CLUB 100 Library - 415/939-1246 BBS, 937-5039 NEWSLETTER, 932-8856 VOICE Tips on PLAN.100 + SORT.CO by: Bill Templeton - Danville Tigers 1/3/87 The main program, PLAN.100 is a nifty program for keeping track of appointments and things to do on any given day. It does require SORT.CO (Rick Perry's gem) which is the fastest M100 sorter I've seen! When the calendar comes up, try pushing `+' or `=' to advance to next month and `_' or `-' to go back a month. Then push to go into the scheduling subroutine and press to begin creating your NOTE.DO file. The date is set by the cursor position on the calendar before entering `schedule' but it will ask for `time'... If you don't enter a time to create a TODO note (not time sensitive), just push twice. With a time entered or not, after entering a note, if you press , the note will be entered into NOTE.DO. If you don't like your note and want to change it, just press bar, and you will be prompted for a new entry. You can enter notes on a random basis as pressing will use SORT.CO to rapidly sort everything in the NOTE.DO file (really a great feature!). When you first run the program, it looks in your NOTE.DO file and if any entries have today's date, it will remind you what you have to do that day, with the timeless notes sorted to the top. When you press to put a title at the top of your NOTE.DO file, it will put `January 1987' at the top, and should only be used when scheduling a month at a time. This feature could easily be removed if you like to schedule more than one month at a time... Several folks have mentioned that they like PLAN.100 + SORT.CO better than TMPC because it is much easier to use, and creates a file (NOTE.DO) that is much easier to work with. And you don't have to worry about entering the info in order, as SORT.CO does a great job of putting things in order (both date and time entries)... Hope you like it... Bill Using PLAN.BA with relocatable SORT.CO: by: Bill Templeton - Danville Tigers 1/14/87 If all of your M/L programs are relocatable, like the version of SORT.CO Denny just uploaded (SORTDL=loader), then you can carefully load more than one .CO program above HIMEM, and you wouldn't need to use WARM.BA! As is, the program expects SORT.CO to be loaded below CDOS from 57765 to 57966. It can be loaded below FLOPPY.CO from 59198 to 59399 or below XTEL.CO from 53728 to 53929 by downloading SORTLD.DO, converting to BASIC and using the higher of the two number pairs above when you run SORTLD.BA... Don't forget to change CLEAR1000,57765 in line 1 of PLAN.BA to the `Top' address you plan to use, i.e., 59198 to use with FLOPPY.CO and 53728 to use with XTEL.CO. I presently have SORT.CO starting at 53728 and don't have to remove CDOS or XTEL.CO when running PLAN.BA + SORT.CO... it's great! Hope this helps... Bill
