This book is distributed in hypertext format. Just type HR4 and press ENTER at the DOS prompt to view it. Answer all questions about your screen set-up. If it asks you what file to load (it only does this if you have more than one HyperRead file), input HOWMIND. Once the book is on the screen, you can get instructions on how to use the program by pressing the H key. The most important thing to remember is that you can jump to sections of the book or view pictures (if you have an EGA or better graphics card) by putting the mouse cursor on a marked hypertext word and pressing the left mouse button, or by putting the screen cursor on the word with the cursor (arrow) keys and pressing the J key. Experiment a bit to get the feel for using HyperRead. You can also move through the document by pressing the PgUp, PgDn, cursor, Home, and End keys on your keyboard, or by clicking on thse words at the bottom of the screen with the mouse (again, press H for more detailed instructions). You can get hard copy of the book by pressing P. You can get hard copy of the pictures by installing GRAPHICS.COM (which comes with DOS, see your DOS manual for instructions) and pressing Shift-PrintScreen while the picture is on the screen.
