SNOOZE Utility Program
This utility prevents an image, such as a menu or icon, from
being burned into the phosphor of the monitor. The utility
causes the monitor to go blank automatically after the system is
inactive for a period of time, which you can specify. The screen
remains blank until you press any key. Then the monitor
resumes display of current activities.
Installing the Utility
The SNOOZE utility is in the UTILS directory on the Utility 1
diskette. Follow these steps to install it:
1.
If you do not already have a directory for utility programs,
create a directory for SNOOZE. (See your MS-DOS
Reference Manual for information on creating directories.)
2.
Insert the Utility 1 diskette in drive A, and copy the
program from the Utility diskette into your utilities
directory. For example, if you created a directory called
SET, you would type the following and press Enter to copy
the program:
COPY A:\UTILS\SNOOZE.COM C:\SET\*.*
Adding SNOOZE to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file
For convenience in accessing SNOOZE, include a pathname in
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. To modify the AUTOEXEC.BAT
file, follow these steps:
1.
At the MS-DOS command prompt in the root directory,
type the following and press Enter:
COPY AUTOEXEC.BAT+CON AUTOEXEC.BAT
