About League Tables
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
League Tables is a program which allows you to enter results from all four
English Football Divisions and to see the new tables immediately.
All four Divisions are in use at the same time, so you can change between
each one at the touch of a button. You can save the current position of all
the Divisions on disk at any time and load them back in when needed.
The program is written in STOS Basic but you do NOT need to have STOS Basic
present to run the game.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
How To Use The Program
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the program first loads you will notice a line in the middle of the
screen saying 'QUICK DATA ON'.
In it's normal operation, 'League Tables' will only update the League you
are on when you press the F8 button (QUICK DATA ON). This is perfect if you
are entering scores from the TV or radio, for example, as you go along. You
can enter all the scores in that Division then go on to the next Division
and enter all the scores in it as well and so on, then come back when all
the scores have been entered and press F8 to update each Division in turn.
Pressing SHIFT and F1 together will change you to 'QUICK DATA OFF'.In this
mode the leagues will be updated after every result you enter. It takes
a few seconds to update the Division so it is too slow for entering scores
from the TV or radio but it can be used if you want to see what effect
each result will have on the League Table when entering scores from a book
or magazine etc.
Pressing SHIFT and F2 together will take you back to 'QUICK DATA ON' mode.
ONLY USE THE FUNCTION KEYS WHEN THE COMPUTER IS ASKING FOR 'Team 1'.
All the keys are shown on the first screen which you can see by pressing
F10. You will also see this page when you change between QUICK DATA ON and
QUICK DATA OFF.
To enter scores just type in the teams number which corresponds to their
league position. Be careful because in 'QUICK DATA OFF' mode the teams
number will change after every score has been entered while in 'QUICK DATA
ON' mode the teams number will only change after you have pressed F8 to
sort the league. Remember to press RETURN after entering each part of the
results. i.e. Team 1 , Score 1 , Team 2 , Score 2
