Texts

This program shows messages every time the computer is turned on.

I made this program for fun. The purpose is to show a message with good content every time that I turned the computer on. I had acquired a scanner and it came with a text recognition program. To test the program I started to scan some messages from the book "Minutes of Wisdom". Each page that I scanned generated a text file. The conversion from image to text was not always perfect, therefore I had to fix some words by hand. To make the program less obvious I shuffled the text contents inside the files. Every time that I turned the computer on the program TEXTO.EXE was executed. The program read a configuration file to know which was the next text to be presented. After that, it converted the text file to the correct content and printed the content on the screen.
