PROCON SOFTWARE
===============
ProCon is solely owned and run by yours truly, Peter King. I am
a professional engineer with many years experience with micro-
computers. New products are continually being developed and
released, here is just a few:
MAHJONG Version 2.24 is a games program which provides an easy
means of learning this Chinese game with complex terminology and
scoring. It can also improve your speed and skill in the game if
you are an experienced player. Cost $35 AUS ($30 U.S.), requires
CGA, EGA or Hercules graphics card.
=================================================================
HERCULES USERS! Provided on the mahjong games disk is the latest
version of 'hercules.com', this is a memory resident program
which allows many C.G.A. programs to run on the Hercules graphics
card. Yes! Even GWBASIC runs using this program. The latest
version provides keyboard control of the screen update rate -
so program execution speed is less affected.
=================================================================
PROCON FORTUNE Version 2.0 is a program which provides an
analysis of personality based on Western astrology, Chinese
astrology and numerology. Ideal for parties and people who need
an instant analysis based on a person's name and date of birth.

PROCON CONTROL Version 1.00 is a remote control program utilizing
any printer port you can control up to eight relays for robot or
model control, switch a radio or tape recorder on and off and SO
MANY other things. A memory resident program allows you to
switch these eight outputs whilst running other programs. AND a
BASIC program allows you to switch them at ANYTIME - with DATE
and TIME programmed. $10 for SHAREWARE version, $30 to register.
PROCON UTILITIES Version 1.10 is a collection of useful utilities
with instructions on how to use them. Includes on-screen clock
(can be turned on and off and works in all CGA modes), screen
blanking program (works with MGA, HGA, CGA), real-time clock
routines to replace TIMER, programs for dual-screen systems (also
