Running OPTEDIT
To run OPTEDIT, choose the directory where OPTEDIT resides, type
OPTEDIT at the DOS prompt, and press ENTER. The software will
prompt the user to specify the letter of the disk drive where the
configuration file to be edited is located. Type the letter of the drive, and
press ENTER.
The file name used by the OPTIMA for its current configuration is
_OPTCNFG._.
Note: The OPTIMA and OPTEDIT will load and use only configuration
files named _OPTCNFG._. If the user would like to keep several different
configurations for archival purposes, the user should use the DOS rename
command to change the name of each file until it is to be used.
