         EZ-DEX,  the EASY ADDRESS INDEX,  provides a means of quickly
 
         fetching an  address and  auto-typing it  into the  currently
 
         running word processor, or other application program.  EZ-DEX
 
         can also  print labels  and envelopes  as well  as dial phone
 
         numbers  for you.    EZ-DEX does  all this  with a minimum of
 
         keystrokes and takes only a fraction of a second.
 

 
         If you  are typing  an address and you think that you'll need
 
         to type it again sometime, letting EZ-DEX remember it for you
 
         will save effort and improve accuracy every time that address
 
         need be typed.
 

 
         EZ-DEX  works with your word processor by popping up a window
 
         over the center of its text display.  The following pop-up is
 
         the  result of  "triggering" EZ-DEX  and striking the "B" key
 
         and then the "A" key.

         After striking  sufficient text  and arrow keys to zero in on
 
         the  desired address,  simply striking the ENTER key restores
 
         your display,  resumes the  execution of your word processor,
 
         and synthesizes the keystrokes necessary to effect typing the
 
         entire address block -- hands off.

         EZ-DEX requires  about 10K bytes  of RAM,  and runs under DOS
 
         Version-3  or  later  on  an  IBM PC or  equivalent computer.
 
         EZ-DEX responds  to triggers  when the display is in 80 by 25
 
         text  mode as  with WordPerfect  and many other text oriented
 
         programs.
 

 
         EZ-DEX works  with both  hard disk  systems and diskette-only
 
         systems.    However, since much disk I/O is necessary, a hard
 
         disk is recommended.

         The details  in this  manual are  more easily understood once
 
         you have seen EZ-DEX in action.   If you have not already run
 
         the MENU batch, you might wish to do so now by:
 

 
            1. Making  sure  that  your  EZ-DEX files  are in  the
 
               current drive/directory,
 

 
            2. Entering "MENU" on the DOS command line, and
 

 
            3. Selecting "Demo, Installation, and Exit."
 

 
         This  menu  provides  a means  of easily  printing a  manual,
 
         installing KEYSAVER,  and using  KEYSAVER in a simulated work
 
         environment.
 

 

 

 
                        --  I N S T A L L A T I O N  --
 

 
         EZ-DEX  installation is  easy.   Just copy the EZDEX.COM file
 
         onto your system disk.
 

 

 

 
                        --  T S R    L O A D I N G  --
 

 
         EZ-DEX is a resident extension of DOS (a TSR) that remains in
 
         memory  to provide  service while other programs are running.
 
         EZ-DEX is loaded into memory via an
 

 
                           EZDEX <trigger> [<color>]
 

 
         command line  either entered in response to the DOS prompt or
 
         from your AUTOEXEC or other batch file.   (Additional command
 
         line parameters are described in the ENVELOPE PRINTING, LABEL
 
         PRINTING and PHONE DIALING sections.)
 

 
         Note: Optional  command line parameters are shown enclosed in
 
         square brackets.  Hence, <trigger> is required but <color> is
 
         not.
 

 
         <trigger>  is specified  as a  combination of  two shift  key
 
         names joined by a plus sign.  Use "CTRL+ALT" for the CTRL and
 
         the  ALT keys held together, "LEFT+RIGHT" for both case shift
 
         keys, "CTRL+LEFT"  for the  CTRL and the left case shift key,
 
         etc.    This  trigger  key  combination  (sometimes called  a
 
         "hot key" combination) is used to trigger EZ-DEX into action.
 






                                       -2-
 


         <color>  is  optional,  and  when  specified,  overrides  the
 
         default  pop-up  colors of  white text  on a  red background.
 
         This  color specification  consists of  a text  color, a plus
 
         sign, and  a background  color.   EZ-DEX  accepts RED, GREEN,
 
         BLUE, CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW, BLACK and WHITE as colors.
 

 
         Entering  "EZDEX CTRL+ALT WHITE+GREEN" loads  the EZ-DEX  TSR
 
         with the  CTRL and ALT keys set for triggering and the pop-up
 
         colors set to white text on a green background.
 

 
         Attempting   to  load   EZ-DEX  again   does  nothing  unless
 
         "EZDEX UNLOAD" is  entered, in  which case the TSR is removed
 
         from memory and EZ-DEX may then be reloaded.   The ability to
 
         unload the EZ-DEX TSR provides flexibility for special cases.
 

 
         Normally EZ-DEX  is loaded  once via  a line  in the AUTOEXEC
 
         batch file and is never unloaded.   If you must unload a TSR,
 
         be sure to follow the convention of unloading TSRs in reverse
 
         order (last loaded, first unloaded).
 

 
         As you read, you might wish to try the exercises that follow.
 
         If so,  EZ-DEX must  be installed  and loaded.   You may load
 
         EZDEX  via  the  MENU  batch  (see INTRODUCTORY DEMO),  or by
 
         copying EZDEX.COM  onto your  system disk and initiate EZ-DEX
 
         via  the following  DOS command.   Often EZDEX.COM resides in
 
         the root directory, but you may copy it to any directory.
 

 
              C:\>EZDEX CTRL+ALT
 
              Address list file "C:\EZ-DEX.LST" cannot be found.
 
              Do you wish to create an address list file? (Y/N) _
 

 
              Respond by striking the "Y" key to create a new
 
              address  list file in the root directory of the
 
              current drive.
 

 

 

 
                  --  T R I G G E R I N G    E Z - D E X  --
 

 
         Once EZ-DEX  has been loaded, it may be triggered into action
 
         by  depressing both  trigger shift  keys momentarily and then
 
         releasing them.
 

 
         Triggering  EZ-DEX  interrupts the  execution of  the running
 
         program so that EZ-DEX may operate.
 

 
         Keystrokes  following a  trigger are  intercepted by  the TSR
 
         until an ENTER or an ESCAPE key is struck.   These keystrokes
 
         direct EZ-DEX to use and maintain your address list.
 






                                       -3-
 


         When finished  (ENTER or ESCAPE keyed), the display screen is
 
         restored  and  the  execution of  the interrupted  program is
 
         resumed.
 

 
         EXERCISE 1 -- Trigger EZ-DEX by holding CTRL+ALT momentarily.
 
         Examine the lower portion of the pop-up.   Note that the five
 
         character  area  at  the  left is  used to  show the  current
 
         accumulation  of command  keystrokes with all currently valid
 
         command keys shown at the right.   A letter preceded by a dot
 
         represents a CTRL shifted letter key (e.g., CTRL+C for Change
 
         and CTRL+D for Delete).   Now, assume that you have triggered
 
         EZ-DEX by mistake and strike ESCAPE to back out.
 

 

 

 
           --  I N S E R T I N G    A    N E W    A D D R E S S  --
 

 
         To  insert a  new address: (1) trigger EZ-DEX, (2) strike the
 
         INS key  in response to the pop-up, (3) type the address into
 
         the pop-up window, and (4) strike the INS key again.
 

 
         The  first address  line should be in last-comma-first format
 
         (Smith, Jane Alice) but,  as you'd expect, will be auto-typed
 
         in  first-last format  (Jane Alice Smith).   See  the SPECIAL
 
         SITUATIONS section for additional information.
 

 
         When inserting  an address,  TEXT characters  strike over any
 
         existing  text, the  four ARROW  keys move the cursor up down
 
         right and  left, and  the ENTER  key moves  the cursor to the
 
         beginning of the next line.
 

 
         EXERCISE 2 -- Insert  several  actual  addresses.   Don't  be
 
         overly  concerned  with  accuracy,  corrections  can  be made
 
         later.   Also, insert an address beginning with "DELETE THIS"
 
         and another beginning with "CHANGE THIS" for use later.  Your
 
         address list will grow with time.  See Appendix-A if you wish
 
         to convert existing address text files.
 

 

 

 
             --  A U T O - T Y P I N G    A N    A D D R E S S  --
 

 
         To auto-type  an address:  (1) start your  text oriented word
 
         processor  (e.g., WordPerfect) and begin an edit, (2) trigger
 
         EZ-DEX, (3) strike  the first  few characters  of a last name
 
         and/or  use the  up and  down arrow  keys to  zero in  on the
 
         desired address,  and (4) strike the ENTER key to resume word
 
         processing with the auto-keying of the selected address.
 

 






                                       -4-
 


         EXERCISE 3 -- Begin an edit and command EZ-DEX to auto-type a
 
         few addresses for real letters.  Easy to learn?  Easy to use?
 
         EZ-DEX is a great helper!
 

 

 

 
                --  D E L E T I N G    A N    A D D R E S S  --
 

 
         To  delete  an  address: (1) trigger  EZ-DEX, (2) select  the
 
         address,  and  (3) strike  CTRL+D  twice -- once  to  command
 
         deletion and once to confirm it.
 

 
         EXERCISE 4 -- Delete  the  "DELETE THIS"  address  from  your
 
         list.
 

 

 

 
                --  C H A N G I N G    A N    A D D R E S S  --
 

 
         To  change  an  address:  (1) trigger EZ-DEX,  (2) select the
 
         address,  (3) strike CTRL+C,  (4) change the  address text as
 
         needed, and (5) strike CTRL+C again to complete the change.
 

 
         EXERCISE 5-- Change the "CHANGE THIS" address and correct any
 
         other known mistakes.
 

 

 

 
                 --  S P E C I A L    S I T U A T I O N S  --
 

 
         Names  exist in  the list file in last-comma-first format and
 
         are  auto-typed  in  first-last  format.   For  most personal
 
         names, this is fine; however, some personal and company names
 
         contain commas that are not last/first dividers.
 

 
         To provide  the control you need in these special situations,
 
         EZ-DEX  recognizes the  vertical bar character as an override
 
         name divider.    Whenever a  vertical bar exists in the first
 
         line  of an  address, as  in the  following two examples, the
 
         vertical  bar  is used  to divide  the name,  and commas  are
 
         treated as normal name text characters.

         Vertical bars in the remainder of an address are converted to
 
         ENTER keystrokes.   This is useful for complex address blocks
 
         that require additional lines.

         The first  line of an address always contains a name, usually
 
         in  last-comma-first format,  with the  remaining four  lines
 
         containing the  remainder of the address.   However if any of
 
         the  second through  fifth lines begin with a semicolon, that
 
         line is considered a comment and is not auto-typed.
 

 
         Comment lines  may be  used at will for notation regarding an
 
         address.

         Often an envelope is printed by a word processor along with a
 
         letter.    In  this  case,  EZ-DEX is  used to  auto-type the
 
         address  in two  places within  the document  and the  actual
 
         printing is  performed by the word processor.   However, when
 
         you  just want  to address  an envelope,  it is easier to let
 
         EZ-DEX print it.   That is, it is not necessary to start your
 
         word  processor and begin an edit just to print an address on
 
         an envelope.
 

 
         To enable  envelope printing,  include the  following command
 
         line option when loading EZ-DEX.
 

 
                           ENV:(<top>,<left>,<size>)
 

 
         <top>  specifies the  top margin  as -20 to +100  blank lines
 
         before the first address line is printed.
 

 
         <left> specifies  the left  margin as 0-160 spaces before the
 
         first address character of each line is printed.
 

 
         <size>  specifies the form size as 0-100 lines.   This param-
 
         eter is used to advance the envelope free of the printer when
 
         printing is completed.  A form size of zero, is used for page
 
         oriented  printers   (e.g., laser printers)  and  causes  the
 
         entire page to be ejected.
 

 
         Sample command line: EZDEX CTRL+ALT ENV:(5,40,20)
 

 
         Striking  CTRL+E will print the address currently in the pop-
 
         up window onto the envelope in LPT1.

         EZ-DEX will  print labels  just as  it prints  envelopes, the
 
         only  reason for  a separate  function is  that envelope  and
 
         label dimensions often differ.
 

 
         To enable  label printing, include the following command line
 
         option when loading EZ-DEX.
 

 
                           LAB:(<top>,<left>,<size>)
 

 
         Sample commands: EZDEX CTRL+ALT LAB:(4,10,12)
 
                          EZDEX CTRL+ALT LAB:(4,10,12) ENV:(5,40,20)
 

 
         Striking CTRL+L  will print the address currently in the pop-
 
         up window onto the label in LPT1.
 

 

 

 
                      --  P H O N E    D I A L I N G  --
 

 
         EZ-DEX  can dial  phone numbers  for you  if you have a Hayes
 
         compatible modem on a serial port.
 

 
         To enable  phone dialing,  include the following command line
 
         options when loading EZ-DEX.
 

 
                                 COMn [ROTARY]
 

 
         COMn  is "COM1" through "COM4"  and "ROTARY" is included only
 
         for rotary phone systems.
 

 
         Sample command lines: EZDEX CTRL+ALT COM1
 
                               EZDEX CTRL+ALT COM2 ROTARY
 
                               EZDEX CTRL+ALT COM2 LAB:(4,10,12)
 

 
         EZ-DEX assumes that the serial port is ready to transmit data
 
         to  the modem.    Sometimes a  MODE command  is necessary  to
 
         initialize a modem's port (e.g., MODE COM2:1200,N,8,1).   See
 
         your modem documentation for details.
 

 
         If the bottom (fifth) line of an address block begins with an
 
         asterisk, that line is considered to be a phone number and is
 
         NOT auto-typed.   To auto-dial the phone number, just type an
 
         asterisk and pick up your phone handset.

         The characters  following the asterisk are transmitted to the
 
         modem  (preceded by an ATDT or ATDP).   That is, EZ-DEX dials
 
         the number  exactly as listed.   If a "1" and/or an area code
 
         are needed, they must be included in the address list entry.
 

 
         SPACEs  and HYPHENs  may be  included for readability and are
 
         ignored by the modem.
 

 
         A comma  causes the  modem to  pause and is useful in getting
 
         through  some PBXs  (e.g., *9,617-259-0059).   See your modem
 
         manual for details.

         You may  print your  address list  data in  three formats  by
 
         entering one of three following commands at the DOS prompt.
 

 
                     EZDEX PRINT ADDRESSES [PAUSE]
 
                     EZDEX PRINT ADDRESSES BORDER [PAUSE]
 
                     EZDEX PRINT PHONES [PAUSE]
 

 
         The  first command,  PRINT ADDRESSES, prints  eight addresses
 
         per page  on a 5-1/2 by 8-1/2 inch daily planner page such as
 
         a SUPER TRAX 8A form.
 

 
         The   second  command  PRINT ADDRESSES BORDER,  prints  eight
 
         addresses per  page on  an 8-1/2  by 11  inch blank form with
 
         borders delimiting a 5-1/2 by 8-1/2 page.  This makes it easy
 
         to trim the listing to fit your daily planner.
 

 
         The  third  command,  PRINT PHONES,  prints  only  names (top
 
         lines)  and phone  numbers (bottom lines) for address entries
 
         with phone numbers (bottom line beginning with an asterisk).

         The optional  PAUSE with  each command  causes the printer to
 
         pause after each page to allow hand feeding of single sheets.

         EZ-DEX   normally  auto-types   an  address  with  each  line
 
         terminated by a synthesized ENTER keystroke.
 

 
         When entering  spreadsheet data,  this ENTER  line terminator
 
         causes all address lines to be overstruck into the same cell.
 
         However,  striking  CTRL+ENTER  (instead  of  just  ENTER) to
 
         select  an address causes EZ-DEX to terminates each line with
 
         a DOWN ARROW  which causes  each address  line to  be entered
 
         into the next cell down.

         The following technical information is provided for those who
 
         wish to  create or  maintain their  address list  using other
 
         programs.
 

 
         EZ-DEX's  addresses  are  maintained in  an ASCII  file named
 
         EZ-DEX.LST that  resides in  the root  directory of the drive
 
         that is current when the TSR is loaded (e.g., C:\EZ-DEX.LST).
 
         If this  file is  created or  edited by  another program  the
 
         following specifications must be honored.
 

 
         1. Each  address record  consists of  five 44-character lines
 
         terminated by a CR/LF (230 bytes per record).
 

 
         2. The addresses  are alphabetically sequenced by the text of
 
         the first line.
 

 
         3. The  last  address  record is  followed by  an END-OF-LIST
 
         record which  is of  the same  format as address records, but
 
         begins with a left brace ({).

         The  following technical information is for those who wish to
 
         apply special  control to  the operation of EZ-DEX.   THIS IS
 
         NOT REQUIRED FOR STANDARD OPERATION.
 

 
         A  command of  "EZDEX DISABLE" prevents triggering.   The TSR
 
         remains resident but is prevented from responding.  A command
 
         of  "EZDEX ENABLE"  allows  triggering and  normal operation.
 
         These two commands may be used (normally within a batch file)
 
         to  prevent EZ-DEX  operation during a critical period, e.g.,
 
         when formatting a disk.
 

 
         A command  of "EZDEX TRIGGER" simulates an EZ-DEX trigger and
 
         is  not inhibited by EZDEX DISABLE.   This is useful when you
 
         wish to trigger EZ-DEX from a batch.
 

 
         Programmers may effect the same control as follows.
 

 
         Each operation  is effected  via an INT-16 with AH=204 and AL
 
         set to 1, 2, or 3 to specify DISABLE, ENABLE or TRIGGER.
 

 
                 MOV     AX,52225      ;Disable EZ-DEX.
 
                 INT     16h
 
                 CMP     AX,"EZ"
 
                 JNE     NO_TSR
 

 
                 MOV     AX,52226      ;Enable EZ-DEX.
 
                 INT     16h
 
                 CMP     AX,"EZ"
 
                 JNE     NO_TSR
 

 
                 MOV     AX,52227      ;Trigger EZ-DEX.
 
                 INT     16h
 
                 CMP     AX,"EZ"
 
                 JNE     NO_TSR
 

 
         If the EZ-DEX TSR is resident, the operation is performed and
 
         control  is returned  with AX set to the ASCII codes for "EZ"
 
         to indicate a successful completion.
