               Zapple is the monitor program for the TPM operating
               system of Valdocs.  It is very powerful, therefore, you
               should be familiar with its commands before you start
               using them, or at the very least, follow the step-by-
               step instructions of another paper that tells you how
               to use it.  If misused, it may damage your QX computer.

          Valdocs 2 has only one way to get into Zapple and that is through
          the Zapple trap, but like all good traps it only works if the
          trap has been set, or enabled.  The following procedure gives you
          the necessary steps to enable the Zapple trap.

          Enabling the Zapple trap in Valdocs 2

          1.   Press MENU.

          2.   Select <S>etup system

          3.   From the SETUP program's main menu, select <V>aldocs System
               Characteristics.

          4.   Set Experience level to <E>xpert and press STORE.

          5.   This time, from SETUP's main menu, select <E>xpert options.

          6.   Set Zapple trap to <E>nable and press STORE.

          As long as the trap is enabled, you will be able to use it at any
          time while you are in Valdocs.  However, the trap will not work
          if Valdocs has crashed or locked out the keyboard.


          Getting into Zapple

          1.   Hold down the CTRL key and type the backslash "\".

          Immediately after CTRL-\ is entered, Zapple will display an
          at-sign followed by a memory location (like @EA26) and then will
          place the cursor after a ">" prompt.  You are now in the Zapple
          monitor and can enter any necessary Zapple commands.

          Getting back into Valdocs 2
          1.   When you are through, type:

                    g

               and press RETURN.  Although it may not show on the screen,
               you have been returned to the point in Valdocs where you
               were when you used the Zapple trap.
