I. DESCRIPTION:

	Have you ever played a game, just say a basic one for example,
that you would like to see how they made certain parts?? But you go
to edit it and, guess what, it is protected. You would have to go through
the trouble of sending it to the computer, opening it in Win Link, and
then unportecting it, send it back then edit. This solves that problem
by letting you unprotect any program on your calc by a click of a button.
It's that simple.


II. INCLUDED FILES:

     protect.83p   The ION program
     readme.txt    This file
     protect.z80   The source

III. INSTALLATION:

     1) Send protect.83p to your calculator
     2) Run ION and then run Protection by Jimmy Conner

IV. USAGE:

	The use of this program is very simple.  First run the progrm
through ION. This will bring you up to a screen showing a list of programs.
To move up or down the list, use the up or down arrows. You may see
a "-->" in the lower right hand corner. If so then it means you have more
that one list of programs. Press the right arrow to go to the next. After
doing this, you will see a "<--" in the lower right hand corner. This
means you have a list of programs before this one. Press the left arrow
to go back a page. You may see a "<-->"  This means that you have both
a page before and after the current one. You can press either left or
right.
	To Un/Protect programs. Move to the program you desire to
protect or unprotect. You will see a small box next to the name. If
it is in the column that has a "P" at the top then it is protected. If
it is in the column that has a "U" at the top then it is unprotected.
Press the "Y=" button while on the name to protect or unprotect the
program. Do it again to change it back. Everything is changed automatically
when you press the "Y=" Key so you don't have to worry about anything 
and you can go about your business.
	To exit is very simple. Press the "Graph" key.

V. BUGS:

     As far as I know there are no bugs! If you experience a problem
then let me know so I can fix it right away.  Thanks!
