  Welcome to ProLabeler!
  ======================

  ProLabeler is a MC/DAT tape labeling program. In contrast to
  other programs, it does not use its own printing routines,
  but rather creates a .tex file, which has to be processed by
  TeX. TeX creates a .dvi file, which can then be viewed and
  printed.
  To use ProLabeler, a proper TeX installation is required, as
  well as gtlayout.library (not included).

  Page selector:
  MC                    Edit MC label
  DAT                   Edit DAT label
  Prefs                 Change preferences

  MC
  ==
  Here you can edit one title and 34 song names for each side.
  This gives a total amount of 68 lines for song names (enough,
  isn't it?).
  Enter the songs from side A on the left and those from side B
  on the right side.

  DAT
  ===
  There are five title lines and three pages with 28 song names
  each available (which totals in 84 lines - should be enough for
  most DATs).

  Prefs
  =====
  Address 1-5           Enter your address here, it will be printed
                        onto the cassette label. If you don't like
                        that, leave blank.
  IniTeX command        Where to find IniTeX program (incl. path)
  ShowDVI command       Where to find ShowDVI
  PrintDVI command      Where to find PrintDVI
  Printer               Printer (used by PrintDVI command; choose one
                        from TeX:config/dviprint.printers)
  Use line numbers      Whether to prepend line number for each line


  Load                  Load dataset or prefs
  Save                  Save dataset or prefs
  Reset                 Reset current dataset
  Generate              Generate label
  Show                  Show current label
  Print                 Print current label
  Quit                  Exit



  Some additional notes:
  - if on the prefs page, load and save affects only the prefs file
    (ProLabeler.prefs)
  - all actions are performed on the current label (MC _or_ DAT)
  - to use special characters, you have to prepend a backslash ('\\')
    in most cases
  - do not use the underline character ('_')
  - error output is directed to the shell, keep an eye on it
