When the DOS 3.3 disk is booted, a directory listing of the
program disk will be shown. To start the program, type "RUN DISK
LABELLER 1.0" in UPPER CASE, without the quotes. The main screen will
be shown, prompting you to insert the disk to be labelled into drive 1.
Insert a disk to be labelled in your 5-1/4" Drive 1 and
press any key. The program will ask if you want prompting. If you
answer 'Y' it will show you each file name it finds and ask if you want
to include that file on the label. After it has read all of the
filenames, Disk Labeller will prompt you for the disk name. The default
is "DISK VOLUME <volume number>". Type a new disk name or press
the Enter key to accept the default. You will then be prompted to make
sure the printer is ready and press a key to print the label or press
the ESC key to cancel printing and start over. To end the program,
press the ESC key at the initial prompt to insert a disk.
The printer codes used are for the Epson MX/FX/RX printer
series. They can be changed by editing line 1340 of the Applesoft code.
