| Abstract | This paper describes some applications of a programming technique that can be used to produce on-line and printed documentation of BASIC programs written for the IBM PC. The methodology helps to document the usage and other aspects of software, for purposes of review, instruction, reference and general information. The author has used the techniques:(1) to explain the usage of a program by reference to a succession of simplified versions which exclude unnecessary details,(2) to construct file driven adaptations of interactive programs for use in automated demonstrations, and to run these adaptations,(3) to capture sample displays of text and graphics that illustrate the actions of a program,(4) to print batches of programs in formats that are easy to read, and to perform other related cosmetic and editorial processes. |
