Heh . . .. And I was a Sales Manager at the time I bought that Trash 80....
Sidekick wasn't like Norton commander,
Sidekick was the first TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) program out there...
Simple stuff, calulator, address book, notepad...you hit some weird key combination to bring it up....but Wow...... Was that something...
Norton commander..... I've lived with that for years and years...the Grandaddy of all dos shells....
I'm using Total Commander now, but they use the exact same commands as NC.... I've still got it in storage, and would use it 'cept that old DOS 8 char file name max..... it'll truncate anything longer.....
What was the name(3) of some of the popular BBS software? For some reason, all I can recall is Fido...which was old when I got into it.... I had a BBS, BTW...
Remember those BBS "On line" games?
How about 300 Baud modems?
My first was a 1200 Baud, and man, that smoked!
Heh
Looking at your handle, do you have any software out there, either Retail, shareware or freeware that you've written?
I wrote a grand total of two Shareware programs, had a bit of response, but that was in the late 80's early 90's.....
a few dozen freeware bits, almost all savegame cheats......
Heh....Just flashed on....remember ZZT?
Rogerwilco and out
