Configuring Your System for use with WordStar


The Autoexec.bat file is a system file located in your root directory.  
In this file there is a line with a PATH statement.  The directory you 
have installed WordStar to should be included in this path line.

The CONFIG.SYS file (also located at the root directory level),  
can  be modified to optimize the memory-handling capabilities of 
your computer.  This file can also be opened  or created within 
WordStar using the ^BNon-document^B mode.   WordStar  recommends,
for DOS versions 3.2 and higher, that the CONFIG.SYS file include 
the following statements:

   FILES=30
   BUFFERS=20
   STACKS=20,256

If there are any device drivers already in your CONFIG.SYS file, 
add an additional 5 files  for each.  (i.e., minimum 30 files, 
with 2 device drivers:  files should then equal 40.)
