     O This program is a total no-frills version of the colour
       and mono versions for "Check". 

     O It will work 100% in your AUTO folder, and if you have a
       network going it will allow the user to see what and where
       they are and what is on-line for them. 

     O The printer checks have been removed and a file selector
       added for you see what is on the disk you are using. A      <--
       note here, ok read this, get the idea no one reads read.me 
 -->   files, such is life. "Beam me up Kiwi". To continue the
       file selector only allows you to see what is on the disks
       displayed on the right hand side of the selector. You can
       WIZZ around your hard disk or floppy then when you select
       a file or select exit it returns to GEM.

     O This will work in COLOUR or MONO but not low res ok. 

     O What this prg does for those of you still reading this is
  
       1/ Check system time                    2/ Check System Date
       3/ Checks drive on-line                 4/ Reports drive on-line
       5/ Reports current Folder              
      
       last but not leaste goes to a file selector and allows you to
       examine your folders for the files present.

     O Please note this prg has a been tested on TOS 1.1,1.2(blitter),
       and Rainbow Tos 1.4, as well as dev 1.4 (German and English as
       well)Buuuuuuuuut it has a problem with DCSHOWIT.PRG installed,
            your mouse gets all lost and decides to drop the odd bomb
            or three.

                                    oooOooo
