4. AN OVERVIEW OF
SiderFile’s ProSel
The SiderFile package is a set of utilities designed to aid you in
using your computer. They have two main parts. The first is the
Program Selector, which allows you to create a menu system
which displays the various programs on a disk. This menu al-
lows you to use the arrow keys or mouse to select and run your
programs by simple highlighting them and pressing return. The
second part consists of a group of utilities used to manage
programs and data and aid you in customizing your computer to
your individual needs.
ProSel is an enhancement to the Apple ProDOS operating sys-
tem; as such it only works with that operating system. There is
a great deal ProSel can do, but you do not need to fully under-
stand its capabilities to benefit from its most basic features.
One of SiderFile’s most valuable feature is its ability to simplify
ProDOS commands. Training is a costly and time consuming
process. The SiderFile package simplifies computing to the
point where office personnel can spend their time learning and
using programs and not figuring out bow to get to them.
There are two versions of the SiderFile package on the installa-
tion disk. One
is
for 80 column displays and the other for 40.
The installation programs will ask which you want and then in-
stall accordingly. The 40 column version has more space for ap-
plication specification, but allows fewer of them. Also the 40
column version is a little faster. The 80 column version is more
visually appealing. Choose the one that suits your needs. If your
needs change, you can change the version installed by running
the INSTALL.RE VISION program later.
