BIOS Message Killer
-------------------

   KILLMSG.COM

      This program allows you to short-circuit the BIOS messages
      for battery low, card battery low, battery error, battery
      very low, backup battery low and the charging messages.

      This program also allows you to turn the palmtop off and 
      on during charging so that you can swap PCMCIA cards.  It
      also has the side effect of resetting the charging timer
      each time you turn the machine off and then on again.  This
      can allow you to achieve longer fast charging time.


   The follow options are available for KILLMSG.COM:

      /B - kills the "MAIN BATTERY LOW" message
      /U - kills the "BKUP BATTERY LOW" message
      /C - kills the "CARD BATTERY LOW" message
      /E - kills the "*BATTERY ERROR*" message
      /V - kills the "MAIN BATT VERY LOW" message
      /M - short-circuits the charging related messages

   All of the battery related messages that you kill will never
   be seen or heard from.  Only the charging related messages
   will have a quick flash of the message, but no beep.

   No matter what options you select the OFF/ON during charging
   feature will always be active.


Suggested Usage
---------------

   Most folks will want to use KILLMSG in the following manner:
   
      KILLMSG /M /C

   This has the effect of killing all charging related messages
   and card battery low messages.  Only if you are using an SRAM
   PCMCIA card is the card battery low message even meaningful.

   The /B option can be used by those folks who wish to experiment
   with running their rechargeable batteries down to as low as 2.0
   volts.  At that point the palmtop will shut off.  Please make 
   sure your batteries can supply the necessary current to support
   operation of your palmtop at that voltage level.

   All options are to be used at your own risk.  I have not 
   experimented with turning off the other message and what the
   effect would be, so take extreme caution when doing so.

When short-circuiting the battery low and error messages you 
must take extreme caution in monitoring your battery voltages
as it could result in loss of data.
