REFERENCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Read.Me 3/5/90

Reference Managament System is a personal system for managing entry, search,
and report of bibliographic data. It is a self explanatory, menu driven system.
It provides full compatability with dBASE III & III+ (R) type files.

It requires a fully IBM compatiable system with at least 475kB of available
memory. Installation to a hard disk is recommended. It can run (more slowly)
from a high density floppy (760kb or greater), or from two 360kb floppy drives.

A manual (abridged from typeset version) is included as RSX.DOC. This can be
read on the disk or printed with DOS print command. New info is in README-2.

To install, set Drive A: to default, mount Distribution Disk #1, type INSTALL.
To examine, the best way is to run the program. There are DEMO database files
included and the default choices will carry you through most of the program.

The program is distributed in 'shareware' and licensed forms. Both are fully
operational as provided. An 'UNLICENSED' note is displayed until the license-
registration number is entered. Shareware users must obtain this number from
the author; details are in the manual and RSX.DOC file. New features may have
been added since this release, so checking (registering) can be worth-while.
Registered users are notified of changes and get a first update at no charge.
Thank you for considering Reference Management System.
