 2) From the main CATALYST menu, select the Systems Utilities Program.
 3) Press "F" for File Handling Commands.
 4) Press "M" for Make a New Subdirectory.
 5) Enter ".PROFILE/CATALYST/QF".
 6) Press RETURN to accept the default size of 25 files.
 7) Press ESCAPE.
 8) Put the QUICKFILE PROGRAM diskette in the internal drive.
 9) Press "C" for Copy Files.
10) Enter".D1/SYSTEM.STARTUP" as the source file name.

12) Enter ".D1/SYSTEM.LIBRARY as the next source file name to copy.
13) Enter ".PROFILE/CATALYST/QF/QF.LIB" as the name of the destination file.
14) When these files have been copied, hold down both APPLE keys and press 
ESCAPE to return to the CATALYST menu.

press RETURN. You will be allowed to insert another entry. Since you do not 
want to do this, enter "0" to exit to the main menu.
