  > Hi all,
  > 
  > To those wondering how to use this program to catalogue tapes, here are
  > a few things you need to know.
  > 
  > 1. Load the program.
  > 2. Select the speed of the tape to be used. Use for POKE#24D,0 for fast
  > saved programs or POKE#24D,1 for slow programs.
  > 3. RUN the program - headings should appear at the top of the screen.
  > 4. Play the tape you want to catalogue.
  > 5. As the programs are found, they will be shown on screen and printed
  > to the printer. If you do not wish for printer output, enter
  > POKE#10CD,60 before running the program.
  > 6. When the tape has been catalogued, you will need to press the reset
  > button to regain control of the Oric.
  > 
  > Hope this helps those of you who have had problems! The program works
  > fine on my Atmos, I have not tested it with Euphoric and tape images
  > though.
