AKFQuiz for DOS

Download the file AQZ411-B.ZIP for executables 
and AQZ411-S.ZIP for source code.

ATTENTION! This is really for DOS, don't use it under Windows.
There is a Windows package available.

It needs either a DPMI-capable 32Bit-DOS or the driver CWSDPMI.EXE in 
the PATH. For grquiz you need a VESA compatible Super VGA card and
optionally a mouse driver.

The directory-structure follows the requirements of FreeDOS:
http://www.freedos.org

The most actual version of AKFQuiz can be found on the Internet:

PROGRAMS

akfquiz.exe  - starts qrquiz.exe
grquiz.exe   - interactive VESA version
crtquiz.exe  - interactive Textmode version
linequiz.exe - interactive lineoriented version
mkquiz.exe   - creates a HTML file (files from SHARE\AKFQUIZ\HTML needed)


INSTALLATION

If you have FreeDOS and unzip from InfoZIP:
Go to the installation path of FreeDOS and unzip the package there.

For example:
C:\>cd \FDOS
C:\>unzip -o \tmp\aqz411-b.zip

Please add the following in your AUTOEXEC.BAT:

   SET QUIZPATH=C:\FDOS\SHARE\AKFQUIZ

and then reboot the system.


OTHER DOS-SYSTEMS

Create an empty directory C:\AKFQUIZ and unzip the package there.
Then edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT and add C:\AKFQUIZ\BIN to your PATH
and also add there:
SET QUIZPATH=C:\AKFQUIZ\SHARE\AKFQUIZ


LONG FILENAMES

Long filenames are supported either when they are supported on drive 
C:. If this doesn't work for you, you can set the environment variable 
LFN to anything: 
SET LFN=y
Most programs also support the parameter -LFN.

To check whether LFN-support is active use the command "mkquiz -h".


HINTS

Depending on how much text you use in you quiz-files, crtquiz might 
look better, when you use different screen-modes.
For example, when you have just short questions and answers, you might 
want to have a larger font size. Simply type "mode co40" before you 
start crtquiz. Or for the GPL-Quiz it's best to use it with
"mode con cols=80 lines=43". Well, just fiddle around with it...

The command akfquiz starts grquiz.
