Information about “LETUS A-B-C #13”

Letus A-B-C is a database in PC-FILE III format containing references
to articles in six major PC oriented magazines, beginning with 1982.
This release of Letus A-B-C covers the following two magazines devoted
to the IBM PC: Byte Magazine (BYTE), and PC Week (PCWK).  This database
provides the PC user with a tool for easily performing literature
searches at a very nominal cost in one's office or home. The search is
done by keyword fields as well as identification fields (i.e., author,
title, magazine issue, and page); also, the authors have included
three lines that give a general description of the article.

System Requirements:   128k, 2 disk drives, PC-FILE III (Disk No 5)

How to Start: It is very important to read the Documentation file
(Letus.doc) located on disk #350 either by screening it (entering TYPE
