- Package: Directory Control (DCon)
- Version: 1.0
- Date: December 9, 1991
-
- Purpose:
-
- To aid in the administration of DOS based PC files.
-
- PLEASE:
-
- READ THE DOCUMENTATION TO EACH UTILITY BEFORE YOU USE IT. SOME OF THE
- PROGRAMS IN THIS PACKAGE CAN WIPE OUT AN ENTIRE DIRECTORY IF THEY ARE
- NOT USED CORRECTLY.
-
-
- Files in Package:
-
- D .EXE Flat File Lister. Shows the directory in 5 columns.
- All files are listed regardless of attribute.
-
- DCDEL .EXE Delete any file regardless of attribute (can prompt).
- Essentially works the same as DEL in DOS except for
- the attribute override function. READ THE DOCS!
-
- DCDMAK .EXE Makes a filename sorted sequential DOS text file
- called DCDIR.LST in the active directory.
-
- DCF .EXE File lister - can sort by Name, Extension or Size.
- The program also shows any attached attributes.
-
- DCFILDAT.EXE Compares two directories and can Copy, Delete, or
- run a batch file if file dates differ from the
- master directory. PLEASE READ THE DCFILDAT.DOC FILE
- FIRST!
-
- DCMAP .EXE Be CAREFUL with this one!. The first time it is run,
- it maps all files in a directory and assumes that they
- are the valid files and saves the names. If a file
- with a new name shows up, it will be deleted regardless
- of attributes. Use this on junk/working file
- directories. PLEASE READ THE DCMAP.DOC file before
- you ever use this program!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
- DCSA .EXE Strips all file attributes from the file spec used.
- READ THE DOCS!
-
- DCUPDAY .EXE Runs a batch file entitled "UPDAY.BAT" once a day.
- Once DCUPDAY has been run, it saves the current date
- to a text file & then checks that file each time it
- is run.
-
- DCDEL, DCMAP, DCFILDAT, DCMAP and DCSA should be used with caution. I just
- want you to know what they do before you ever run them. I STRONGLY URGE A
- NEW USER TO RUN THESE PROGRAMS UNDER TEST CONDITIONS AWAY FROM THEIR OTHER
- PROGRAMS BEFORE THEY ATTEMPT TO ADOPT THEM FOR REGULAR USE.
-
- This package is a little different from some utility packages that are on the
- market today. If you only like one or two programs, the individual programs
- can be registered for $5 per concurrently used copy. The bargain (in my
- eyes) is that the whole package is only $20. It is up to you whether or not
- you want the entire package or only specific files. If this package, or one
- of the utilities aids you, you should register your copy. For example, say you
- want DCMAP & DCUPDAY, then you need only send $10. But please, if you use this
- software, register it.
