Quick Installation Instructions
The Federal Zone:
Cracking the Code of Internal Revenue
fourth edition
Electronic Version
The electronic fourth edition of The Federal Zone consists of
three separate MS-DOS logical files: FEDZDOC4.EXE, FEDZTXT4.EXE
and FEDZWRI4.EXE. All three files are self-extracting executable
programs in compressed format.
The file FEDZDOC4.EXE contains all 4th edition MS-WORD formatted
files, all of which have a .DOC suffix after self-extraction.
The file FEDZTXT4.EXE contains all 4th edition ASCII text files,
all of which have a .TXT suffix after self-extraction.
The file FEDZWRI4.EXE contains all 4th edition MS-WRITE formatted
files, all of which have a .WRI suffix after self-extraction.
For quick installation, perform the following three steps:
1. After copying the file FEDZDOC4.EXE to your MS-DOS machine,
the separate formatted MS-WORD files in The Federal Zone,
fourth edition, can be extracted and decompressed
automatically as follows:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> fedzdoc4.exe
2. After copying the file FEDZTXT4.EXE to your MS-DOS machine,
the separate unformatted ASCII files in The Federal Zone,
fourth edition, can be extracted and decompressed
automatically as follows:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> fedztxt4.exe
3. After copying the file FEDZWRI4.EXE to your MS-DOS machine,
the separate formatted MS-WRITE files in The Federal Zone,
fourth edition, can be extracted and decompressed
automatically as follows:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> fedzwri4.exe
The above three steps assume that the DOS directory FEDZONE4.DIR
has already been created on drive C:.

Detailed User Instructions
The Federal Zone:
Cracking the Code of Internal Revenue
fourth edition
Electronic Version
1. The fourth edition of The Federal Zone is available in
electronic format. Each chapter and each appendix is a
separate MS-DOS logical file.
2. All DOS files were written to floppy disk in the sequence of
their appearance in the book. Please maintain this sequence.
3. All files were written by Microsoft WORD for DOS, version
5.0B, using an Intel 80386 cpu with MS-DOS version 5.00.
4. Files in this format can be translated by all of Microsoft's
word processing packages (e.g. Windows WRITE, WORD FOR
WINDOWS, Microsoft PUBLISH), and by such third-party
translation programs as SOFTWARE BRIDGE and WORD-FOR-WORD.
Such translations are not yet perfect, however.
5. To compress the entire fourth edition with the PKZIP
utility, execute the following sequence of DOS commands:
C> prompt $p$g
C:\> mkdir fedzdoc4.dir
C:\> cd fedzdoc4.dir
C:\FEDZDOC4.DIR> copy b:\*.* /v
C:\FEDZDOC4.DIR> pkzip fedzdoc4.zip *.doc readme.txt
This sequence assumes that your current logical drive is
drive C: and that the PKZIP command is stored in a directory
that is in your PATH statement. This sequence also assumes
that the files are stored on drive B:. Experienced DOS
users are presumed to know how to modify this sequence for
their own specific situations.
6. To create a single compressed file that is self-extracting,
execute the following after step 5 above:
C:\FEDZDOC4.DIR> zip2exe fedzdoc4.zip
This command writes the file FEDZDOC4.EXE, which can then be
copied to other DOS machines which do not support the
PKUNZIP decompression utility. If DOS users have the PKZIP
utility, they are presumed to have the ZIP2EXE utility also.
7. After copying the file FEDZDOC4.EXE to another DOS machine,
the separate DOS files in The Federal Zone, fourth edition,
can be extracted and decompressed automatically as follows:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> fedzdoc4.exe
8. The fourth edition is also available in plain ASCII format,
without any special character formatting (e.g., underlines,
bold, or italics). Files in this format have a ".TXT"
suffix and can be viewed with MS-DOS commands like MORE and
EDIT.
9. To compress the ASCII version of the fourth edition with the
PKZIP utility, execute the following sequence of DOS
commands:
C> prompt $p$g
C:\> mkdir fedztxt4.dir
C:\> cd fedztxt4.dir
C:\FEDZTXT4.DIR> copy b:\*.txt /v
C:\FEDZTXT4.DIR> pkzip fedztxt4.zip *.txt
This sequence assumes that your current logical drive is
drive C: and that the PKZIP command is stored in a directory
that is in your PATH statement. This sequence also assumes
that the .TXT files are stored on drive B:. Experienced DOS
users are presumed to know how to modify this sequence for
their own specific situations.
10. To create a single compressed file that is self-extracting,
execute the following after step 9 above:
C:\FEDZTXT4.DIR> zip2exe fedztxt4.zip
This command writes the file FEDZTXT4.EXE, which can then be
copied to other DOS machines which do not support the
PKUNZIP decompression utility. If DOS users have the PKZIP
utility, they are presumed to have the ZIP2EXE utility also.
11. After copying the file FEDZTXT4.EXE to another DOS machine,
the separate ASCII files in The Federal Zone, fourth
edition, can be extracted and decompressed automatically as
follows:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> fedztxt4.exe
12. To concatenate all ASCII files into a single uncompressed
ASCII text file, execute the following two DOS commands
after step 11:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> copy *.txt fedzone4.all
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> rename fedzone4.all fedzone4.txt
The second command is necessary because the .TXT suffix is
used in all text filenames, and the DOS COPY command will
not work perfectly if the output file is also an input file.
The output file "FEDZONE4.TXT" is in a portable format which
can be transmitted to all computers, including mainframes,
minicomputers, workstations, and network servers. Adjacent
pages are separated by a single "page eject" character.
13. The fourth edition is also available in MS-WRITE format.
Files in this format have a .WRI suffix. MS-WRITE is in the
"Accessories" group of Microsoft WINDOWS.
14. To compress the MS-WRITE version of the fourth edition with
the PKZIP utility, execute the following sequence of DOS
commands:
C> prompt $p$g
C:\> mkdir fedzwri4.dir
C:\> cd fedzwri4.dir
C:\FEDZWRI4.DIR> copy b:\*.wri /v
C:\FEDZWRI4.DIR> pkzip fedzwri4.zip *.wri readme.txt
This sequence assumes that your current logical drive is
drive C: and that the PKZIP command is stored in a directory
that is in your PATH statement. This sequence also assumes
that the .WRI files are stored on drive B:. Experienced DOS
users are presumed to know how to modify this sequence for
their own specific situations.
15. To create a single compressed file that is self-extracting,
execute the following after step 14 above:
C:\FEDZWRI4.DIR> zip2exe fedzwri4.zip
This command writes the file FEDZWRI4.EXE, which can then be
copied to other DOS machines which do not support the
PKUNZIP decompression utility. If DOS users have the PKZIP
utility, they are presumed to have the ZIP2EXE utility also.
16. After copying the file FEDZWRI4.EXE to another DOS machine,
the separate MS-WRITE files in The Federal Zone, fourth
edition, can be extracted and decompressed automatically as
follows:
C:\FEDZONE4.DIR> fedzwri4.exe
