This archive contains an MS-DOS program called "Personal Harmonograph
Simulator" or PHS.  It is freeware and it will work under Windows.  It
simulates a museum harmonograph, creating pretty circular patterns that you
can control and print.

This archive may be freely distributed as long as none of the files inside
are modified or missing.

The files that should be in the archive are:

  FILE_ID.DIZ     Short description of PHS.
  PHS.EXE         The Personal Harmonograph Simulator program.
  PHS.INI         The PHS initialization file.
  PRINTER.INI     The printer initialization file.
  PRINTER.TXT     Instructions on setting up PHS to work with your printer.
  README.TXT      This file.
  *.HLP           Text files used by PHS help.

To run Personal Harmonograph Simulator, type in "phs" at the DOS prompt.
This program requires a 286 or higher processor, a mouse, and EGA or VGA.  A
math coprocessor will make PHS run much faster.  To force EGA mode, type "phs
ega" at the DOS prompt.

To set up PHS to work with your graphics printer, read the file
"PRINTER.TXT".
