SimTel/os2/diskutil/
dbp032a.zip     OS2 BootManager for Systems with Multiple OS's
  
PROGRAM SYNOPSIS:  For users who wish to have multiple operating systems
(in multiple partitions) on their computer, DocsBoot+ is a boot manager
program that allows the user to select which operating system is to be
active during a particular session.  DocsBoot+ does not require
repartitioning to install, and can be installed either on a floppy or a
hard disk.  Very little space is used on a floppy, and no normally used
space is required on a hard disk. 
  
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS: 
CMOS SECURITY--Saves system settings, and restores them if they are lost. 
VIRUS PROTECTION--Removes several types of boot sector and MBR virii. 
TIMED BOOT--Allows the option to either boot to a default system, or to
the last booted partition, after a user-settable period of time. 
BOOT FLOPPIES--Can Boot from a floppy disk from the menu selection.
RESTART--Allows a restarting of the system (cold or warm) from the menu. 
EXTENSIONS--Allows loading of extensions which are run before the menu
comes up.  (Extensions can be anything from password programs to drivers
which emulate ROMs for nonstandard hardware.)
DRIVESWAP--Swaps the A and B floppy drives so that many real-mode programs
and operating systems can boot from either floppy drive. 
  
PROGRAM STATUS:  Shareware (near to final beta version), registration $15
U.S. funds.  Fully functional, expires 30 June 1996.

SimTel/os2/finance
et270a.zip      Electronic Teller home-finance application   
 
Electronic Teller is a powerful, yet visually attractive and
affordable, home-finance application that can:
 
 o  manage your bank, credit card, cash, asset, and liability
    accounts.
 o  allow you to make calculations with its calculator (and even
    print the calculator tape!).
 o  allow you to create fiscal or general reminders using its
    three-panel calendar.
 o  allow you to postdate transactions and expand them for up
    to two years into the future.
 o  present you with a present or forecasted net worth statement.
 o  display your category usage in a pie chart or general
    earning/spending trends with either a bar or line graph.
 o  allow you to design a cheque layout and print any number
    of cheques using different fonts for each printable cheque
    item.
 o  allow you to save payee addresses and print envelopes along
    with those cheques (again, using different fonts).
 o  import Quicken (c) or Microsoft Money (c) QIF files and
    export them again.
 o  create a comma-delimited export file suitable for importing
    into a database.
         
This shareware program is fully functional with the exception
that only four accounts can be created, and only 200 transactions
per account (excluding any that have been imported).

Changes:  version 2.70a introduces some new features, changes
some existing ones, and fixes a host of bugs, all of which are
documented in the `history.txt' file.
