Who knows how to use the FAOP software

After half a day of research, a solution was finally found: the method of using FAOP software with the XP system. Start – Run – type “CMD”, click OK to enter the DOS interface – type “CD\FAOP” (the folder containing FAOP software is on drive C), press Enter – then type “FAOP” and press Enter; the FAOP software interface will appear – type the name of the file for which you want to obtain results after “File’s name” (FAOP software does not support files with extensions); for example, “ss”, then press Enter – it will say “File name missing or blank – Please enter name, UNIT 5?” ”Type “File name for outputting calculation results (without extension)”; for example, ssout. In this case, a file named SSOUT without an extension will be created automatically in the C\FAOP folder, with the filename in uppercase letters. By opening the SSOUT file using Notepad, the calculation results can be viewed

Using the software is as inconvenient as on the second floor; I’ve used it before and had to refer to the instruction manual while entering information.
