TELETYPE  Version 0.1 (for IBM-compatibles)
Types A Text File To The Screen, "Teletype"-Style
Freeware from Kirk Lawrence.


TELETYPE types a text file to the screen one letter at a time, with a "click"
as each letter is typed...reminiscent of the way an old mechanical "Teletype"
machine typed text on paper.

Syntax:  TT filename.ext

...where "filename.ext" is the name of the file you want typed to the screen.
For instance: to type this documentation file to the screen "Teletype"-style,
you'd type TT TELETYPE.DOC ...and then press the ENTER key.

If the file you wish to type is on a different drive, you may specify a drive
letter on the command line to indicate its location.  For example:

    TT A:MYFILE.TXT

All standard CP/M-86 conventions apply, EXCEPT for wildcards and user areas.
TELETYPE will not accept wildcards in the filename, or user area numbers
with the drive letter.

While TELETYPE is typing a file to the screen, you may abort the process at
any time by pressing the ESC key.

TELETYPE will work on any class of IBM-compatible computer running CP/M-86,
and will work with any video system.

TELETYPE will display any type of file.  However, TELETYPE was designed to
type normal flat-ASCII text files to the screen, in standard 80x25 video text
mode.  TELETYPE expects a carriage return and a line feed at the end of each
line of text.  If these characters are missing, expect some odd results on
the screen.  Typing binary files to the screen is not recommended.

TT.CMD is free.  As is always the case with "freeware," there are no guarantees
whatsoever.  If you use the program, you do so entirely at your own risk and
peril.  Your use of TT.CMD shall be prima facie evidence under law that you
understand and accept these terms and conditions.
