*Important: If any amount of memory is allocated to the Buffer size option, the printer buffer setting is shown to be "On." However, it will not actually be on if not selected from the Control

Panel menu.

The Buffer-Sizeoption of the enhanced AppleWorks Getting Started menu lets you allocate the amount of Apple IIGS memory space (up to 64K) to be used for the print buffer. With the Apple IIGS print buffer ON and the

Getting Started Buffer Size option set to OK, the

actual buffer size will be determined by the amount of memory (2K or less) that the Apple IIGS memory manager can allocate.

Time Display/Database Time-Stamp Option

This option will read the output of the Apple IIGS internal clock and replace the “Open-Apple-? for Help’ message in the bottom line of the AppleWorks screen with a current date and time display. This option also allows the AppleWorks user to enter the current date or time into a database category by typing the @ character as the only entry in that category. The category name must contain either the word DATE or the word TIME but should not contain both. For example, you should not use this feature in a category named, “Date and Time.”

*Note: To use the internal clock of the Apple IIGS, the enhanced AppleWorks must be run under ProDOS 8 or 16, not ProDOS 1.1.1. (See your Apple dealer for ProDOS upgrades.)

The Getting Started options menu allows 12 hour or 24 hour time and date display. How the date is displayed on the screen is affected by the time display option selected.

The 12-hour (USA format) option displays the date as Month/Day/Year.

The 24-hour (French, German, and military format) option displays the date as Day/Month/Year.
