Documentation for TC31 Program written and Copyright 1988 by John Lauro Shareware! TC31: The Compressor is a fast and simple file compression/decompression utility for RS-DOS. TC31/BIN is for the 512K CoCo3. TC31 is very effective on picture files and other files that repeat the same character often. To use TC31, simply LOADM (it auto-executes), and follow the prompts. TC31 will ask you for your desired input and output drives, using the extension /ARC on all compressed files. If you select ecompress, TC31 will search your input drive for an /ARC'ed file. If it finds only one, TC31 will automatically begin decompressing it. If there is more than one, you will be prompted to select the filename. If you select ompress, TC31 will load the directory off of your Input drive, and display a menu with all the filenames highlighted (selected for compression). To toggle select/deselect, use the key, and use the arrow keys for movement. When you are done, hit . Deselect all the files to abort. TC31 has become VERY popular on many CoCo BBS's.
