HOW TO USE ABSGif

If you are using TP 6.0, rename ABSGIF.TP6 to ABSGIF.TPU. If you
are using TP 7.0, rename ABSGIF.TP7 to ABSGIF.TPU. Since this is
a programmer's tool, I'm going to assume you have decent knowledge
of computers in general, and Turbo Pascal in particular. Simply
place ABSGif in your USES statement.
