AMOS TOME Series IV Manual  Index Next Page 1

Foreword

Thank you for buying this latest version of the TOME system. It is because of honest users of the software that we have been able to keep TOME updated, and are able to release this version with a full manual (my apologies for the manual being on disk for Version 3, but Shadow Software is only a little outfit, and we couldn't afford to release TOME 3 with a full manual).

It is because of the requests phoned and written in by current TOME users that I have had added so many commands to TOME IV that it has nearly twice as many commands as the previous version ! I have also beefed up the editor somewhat, there is still nothing to rival it, on any computer !

Despite attempts by rival companies to hide TOME from programmers, it has managed to get itself used by ALL the major AMOS programmers, and again, this is mostly due to users "spreading the word", thank you !

I hope you like this new version, and my first attempt at a manual of this size. I will of course be doing updates in the future, and adding to the manual. Keep in touch via the AMOS Club so that you can get hold of these updates, and if you have any ideas for new commands, or ways of improving the current ones, don't hesitate to call.

One last point, please don't pirate this product. It affects me, and all the people who work for, or with me directly. I can't afford to stay in the software business if people copy my work. If you see a pirated version of TOME anywhere, do something nasty to the disk or BBS that it is on.

Oh, and to my competitors, keep on trying to catch up boys !
