- utilities. They differ from vaccine-type and other programs that attempt to find, block, or alert
- users to potential viruses. Instead, FICHECK is a preventive medicine program which takes a
- snapshot (x-ray) of a specified fixed disk and logs it to a file. The things FICHECK logs are the
- date, time, size, attribute, and CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) of every file on the fixed disk.
- It looks for differences in all of these things whenever FICHECK is executed again and alerts
- the user to any changes. Any changes potentially mean a virus is at work - viruses have to
- alter files in some way in order to spread themselves. The MFICHECK program works in a
- manner similar to FICHECK except that it uses a unique MCRC (Modified Cyclic Redundancy
- Check) instead of the standard CRC checking.

- Load PGM2091
-
- The FREEPACK program package consists of the following five DOS utility programs :
-
- Menu Master is an easy to use menuing program which allows users to set up menus
- for switching directories and starting application programs. Users can just point to the name
- of the program they want to start (ie., Lotus 1-2-3), and press ENTER. Menu Master will change
- to the appropriate directory and will automatically start the program.
-
- SeeShell is a DOS shell that will do everything that the DOS command DIR will do, but it
- will do it faster and will give users a great deal more. SeeShell will display a sorted listing of
- the directory and will indicate much of the disk is being used, how much is available, how many
- files are in the current directory, and how much space they are using. Eight procedures may
- be performed on any listing in the directory - copy, delete, execute, move, print, rename, view,
- or change directories.
-
- Compare allows users to compare two files, byte by byte.
-
- CopyFile is an intelligent file copier which can copy only the files that are either not on
- the target disk (or directory), or that have been changed since they were last copied.
-
- View is a simple ASCII text file viewer.
-
- Where-Is searches each directory in a specified disk for a specific file. The program
- supports the "*" and "?" wildcard symbols, and output may be redirected to either a file or a
- printer.
-
- System Requirements : FREEPACK requires an IBM PC or compatible, 256kB of RAM,
- and either a color monitor or a monochrome monitor. A hard disk is recommended. DOS 2.0
- or later is required. Any PC printer will work.
-
- FX
- Load PGM2092
-
- FX (File eXaminer) is a general-purpose file viewer and "byte- zap" utility. It can handle
- any MS-DOS file of unlimited size, and it is neither constrained by nor optimized for any
- particular file format, whether that be ASCII text, binary, etc. This program was designed to be
- as fast, flexible, and reliable as possible, working as a sort of "byte-oriented" word processor.
-
- System Requirements : FX will run on any IBM PC or true compatible running DOS 3.0
- or higher, and should certainly run without incident on a 256kB system. (FX will require about
- 200kB available memory to run). FX automatically detects and adapts to a monochrome or
- color system, and selects 25 x 80 text mode if the system is not already in this mode.
-
- GetFile
- Load PGM2093
-
- The GETFILE program allows quick searches for any kind of file, even if the file is
- hidden or buried deep down in the dense jungle of directories and subdirectories. In case
- an exact file name is not available, GETFILE supports the use of wildcard values. GETFILE
- will list all the files in all the directories which match the given wildcard. Unlike most other
- similar programs, GETFILE will not only display the location of a found file, but it will also
- change to the appropriate drive and directory of the first complete filename that matches the
- one supplied.
-
- Grep
- Load PGM2094
-
- The GREP program package includes a variety of useful DOS utility programs - Grep
- Directory, Grep Copy, Grep Delete, Grep Grep, Grep Move, and Grep WhereIs. Command
- line options allow file matching for a specified set of characters, except for a specified set of
- characters, for the start of a filename, for the end of a filename, with the use of the "*" and "?"
- wildcard characters, etc.

- JLock
- Load PGM2095
-
- JLOCK is a memory resident utility which controls access to a list of file names so that
- the user can control whether certain files may be opened, created, executed, deleted,
- renamed, or allowed to change file modes. Since files must be opened before they can be
- copied, JLOCK controls file copying also. A user-written list of files along with allowed access
- types will be read in, every time JLOCK is executed. The list can have up to 200 file names
- and the settings can be viewed at any time from the program's pop-up menu.
-
- Kym's Disk Utilities
- Load PGM2096
-
- The KYM'S DISK UTILITIES package consists of five useful DOS utility programs -
- KILLDIR, YCOPY, MOVE, DISKPARA, and HD_SPEED.

-
- YCOPY, similar to the DOS XCOPY program, is a copy program which can duplicate
- whole directory structures, as well as single files.
-
- MOVE allows users to move files and whole subdirectories from one directory to
- another. The program does not physically move these files, but it actually rearranges a
- disk's directory structure in an appropriate manner.
-
- DISKPARA displays the DOS internal Disk Parameter Table.
-
- HD_SPEED measures a hard disk's average cylinder access time in milliseconds.
- The program also displays this information together with the disk's size and the number of

-
- The LEOCE TOOLKIT package consists of a variety of useful DOS utility programs.
- The DLT utility is multiple-file deletion program. ENTAB is a file processing utility which
- converts strings consisting of spaces into the appropriate tab characters. HEAD is an ASCII
- text viewer utility which displays a specified number of lines from an ASCII text file. The TAIL
- utility, like HEAD, displays ASCII text, but from the bottom of the file rather than the top. The
- MERGE program is a C-programming utility which combines Turbo C .A output and .C source
- code files. PR prepares formatted text files to allow output to a file or to a printer. SIZEOF
- returns the number of bytes appropriated by a specified file. The STGMAP utility generates
- a system memory report, specifying all programs using system memory. The TEE file
- viewer redirects file contents to both the display screen and to a DOS file. The TP file viewer
- utility displays files in a way similar to the UNIX MORE command.
-
- Lightwave Utilities
- Load PGM2098
-
- The LIGHTWAVE UTILITES package consists of a useful collection of DOS directory
- utility programs. Included are WHERE, LS, and DR. WHERE is a file search program which
- scans through an entire drive for a specified file. Filenames and wildcards are accepted. LS,
- like the UNIX program of the same name, displays a sorted columned list of files for the
- current directory. DR, similar to LS, gives a sorted columned list, but also includes file sizes.
- However, only drives A: and B: are accepted.
-
- List
- Load PGM2064
-
- The LIST program from Buerg Utilities consists of a powerful file viewer and browser.
- LIST may be used to display files on a monitor, line by line with the aid of scrolling, positioning,
- and filtering commands. The program features a variety of commands which go beyond
- usual file viewing and browsing and file management control. The package comes with three
- versions of LIST - LISTS (small), LISTR (regular), and LIST (plus).
-
- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS : The LIST.COM program requires about 64kB of memory. If
- more memory is available, it is used to store more of the file in memory. At least 80kB is
- required to use the DOS shell, and 9kB more is required if the screen saving option is enabled.
- PC DOS Version 2.0 or later is required. DOS version 3.0 or later is required for file sharing.
-
- ListBack
- Load PGM2099
-
- The LISTBACK program lists all files and directories that are stored on backup
- diskettes which were created with the DOS 3.3 BACKUP command. LISTBACK lists each
- directory followed by all the files that were copied from that directory. The filename, size,
- date, and time are listed for each file.
-
- Lockout
- Load PGM2100
-
- LOCKOUT is an easy-to-use enhanced system security program which uses password
- protection. The program is not designed to be absolute protection against malicious or
- snoopy people, but it will keep out all but the most sophisticated users. While LOCKOUT is
- running, <Ctrl>-C, <Ctrl>-<Break>, and <Ctrl>-<Alt>-<Del> are all inactive. The only possible
- way to exit LOCKOUT is by entering the password or by shutting the computer off.
-
- System Requirements : LOCKOUT requires 128kB of RAM and a hard disk drive. It will run on
- any display adapter.
-
- LPTX
- Load PGM2101
-
- The LPTX program intercepts the 17h BIOS interrupt, the line printer interrupt, and
- redirects the output of LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3 to a disk file. LPTX is most useful for programs
- which do not allow this optional redirection of printer data to ASCII text files.
-
- System Requirements : LPTX requires DOS 2.0 or later. Version 6.00 of LPTX uses about 20kB of
- memory for the resident data buffers and interrupt handler.
-
- MasDir
- Load PGM2103
-
- The MASDIR package consists of the SDL (Sorted Directory Listing) program that is
- used in place of the DOS DIR command. Users can invoke it from the DOS prompt, just like
- DIR, and SDL accepts the same file specifications that DIR does, including paths and wild
- cards. SDL includes the following features : sorts the listing alphabetically by name, or
- optionally by extension, date, size, or (like DIR) not at all; automatically formats the listing in
- the number of columns that will fit all the file names on one screen, if possible; SDL pauses
- after each screen until the user is ready to continue; options are selectable on the command
- line by adding them to the SDL command (like /P or /W for the DIR command); options can
- also be selected from a menu that is presented at the bottom of the screen at the end of each
- screen of the listing. In addition, the program includes a tutorial and an interactive
- demonstration.
-
- System Requirements : SDL is compatible with all computers running under MS or PC-DOS
- versions 2.0 and later and requires no more than 64K of memory. SDL supports all types of
- monitors and display adapters, whether it be monochrome or color.
-
- Master Key Utilities
- Load PGM2113
-
- THE PROFESSIONAL MASTER KEY UTILITIES consists of the following group of
- eight menu-driven disk utility programs.
-
- PROFESSIONAL MASTER KEY (PMK) - PMK is much more than a mere sector editor.
- It also edits, manipulates, renames, erases, and most importantly, undeletes files.
-
- FILL DISK - FILL DISK writes any message on all free sectors on a disk leaving
- existing files alone. It can also zero all unused sectors, removing all traces of old file data.
- The uses of FILL DISK are many, ranging from stamping a hard disk with a user's name and
- address (to provide a positive means of identifying it in the event of a theft) to merely
- clearing out remnants of previous work.
-
- FILE SORT - FILE SORT rearranges the order of filenames on a disk. It can sort
- filenames according to their name, extension, date, time, or size, all in either ascending or
- descending order. It also allows users the flexibility to rearrange the order of file names in
- a directory arbitrarily.
-
- UN FORMAT - Protecting against accidentally formatting a hard disk is what
- UNFORMAT is all about. When used regularly it protects hard disk users from losing their
- files and data after an accidental hard disk format.
-
- ZERO DISK - ZERO DISK removes all traces of all data from a disk. Unlike FILL DISK,
- which can optionally zero unused sectors of a file while leaving all existing files untouched,
- ZERO DISK completely eliminates all existing files along with everything else.
-
- ZERO FILE - ZERO FILE removes all traces of a file's current data from disk. A file
- deleted by MS-DOS could later be recovered on the disk using PMK. However, a file zeroed
- with ZERO FILE cannot be recovered, in any way, from that disk.
-
- TINY EDIT - TINY EDIT is a small, no-frills text editor and file viewer for use with
- "config.sys" and "autoexec.bat" files. A strong feature of TINY EDIT is its small size. Hence,
- TINY EDIT is useful for inclusion on a floppy disk when space is at a premium.
-
- System Requirements : To run, THE PROFESSIONAL MASTER KEY UTILITIES require the
- following "standard" equipment : IBM PC/XT/AT or somewhat compatible computer; MS-DOS or
- PC-DOS 2.0 or later; any display monitor; 128kB free memory; any disk drive configuration.
-
- Match-Maker
- Load PGM2104

-
- The ONBOOT program is a simple utility designed for use in "autoexec.bat" batch files.
- ONBOOT allows the "autoexec.bat" to run selected programs only during a warm boot
- (Ctl-Alt-Del), a cold boot (power on), or a first boot of the day. For example, placing the
- command "onboot daily chkdsk" into "autoexec.bat" will cause a computer to run the DOS
- CHKDSK program only once a day, the first time the computer is turned on.
-
- System Requirements : ONBOOT requires DOS 3.0 or later for use in DAILY mode and DOS 2.0
- or later for use in WARM/COLD modes.
-
- PC-Browse
- Load PGM2107,
- PGM2108
-
- PC-BROWSE was designed as a memory-resident utility to help users search a file
- (or files) for occurrences of a specified text string. Users bring up the PC-BROWSE window
- over their application program, enter the name of the file to be searched and the text string
- to be found, and press the search key. PC-BROWSE quickly finds and displays the
- appropriate information. Pressing the search key again will continue the search so that
- additional occurrences of the text can be identified. Relevant information from the search
- may be pasted into an application program, copied to a file, or printed out. In addition,
- PC-BROWSE offers some "navigational" tools, or place markers, so that users can quickly
- move back and forth between pages of text.
-
- System Requirements : PC-BROWSE requires an IBM PC compatible computer. The program
- is memory-resident, requiring about 60kB of free conventional memory or 3kB of EMS memory.

- a .ZIP compressed format file.
-
- Puff
- Load PGM2114
-
- PUFF is a directory and file browser which pops up on demand. Once installed, users
- can call PUFF at any time by pressing a user-defined hot-key. PUFF gives users the ability
- to browse directories and both ASCII and non-ASCII files within other programs, such as word
- processors, spreadsheets, debuggers, or even at the DOS prompt. PUFF is intended to be
- very easy to use and contains several screens of on-line help.
-
- PUFF makes it possible to do things like : browse the source of a program while
- debugging it; check the name of a file in a directory before loading it into a spreadsheet;
- quickly move up and down a directory tree looking for a file; check when a particular file was
- last saved; copy part or all of one file into an editor or word processor; see how much room
- there is on a diskette before saving a file; erase, copy, or rename files at any time.
-
- System Requirements : PUFF uses between 29kB and 42kB of memory when resident
- (depending on installation options). It runs under DOS 2 or 3 on any model PC and will work
- on both monochrome and color display adapters.
-
- PutPass
- Load PGM2115
-
- The PUTPASS program package is a utility that adds code to an executable file so
- that a password must be supplied before the executable can be executed. The command
- "putpass myfile.com" places a password protection code into a resulting "myfile.cpm" output
- file. This output file may then be renamed back to the original "myfile.com" format.
- Unfortunately, PUTPASS currently only handles .COM format files.
-
- System Requirements : The PUTPASS program was designed for use on an IBM Personal
- Computer using DOS 3.0 and greater, but should work on DOS 2.x systems as well. However, it
- has not been tested on older DOS versions nor on IBM compatibles.

-
- The QUICKIE program package is a versatile text manipulation and retrieval utility.
- It allows a user to browse through a pure ASCII, WordStar, or Office Writer file, select and
- unselect text for retention, and dump it to an output file for combination into reports or for
- import into word processor files. QUICKIE can call files from the command line or can prompt
- the user for an input filename. Hitting the "+" key at the filename input prompt will call up a
- directory listing which can be used as a menu for file selection. QUICKIE is most useful for
- compiling reports from documents in a number of different formats.
-
- Read My Disk!
- Load PGM2118
-
- The READ MY DISK! program utility was designed to recover ASCII data from a floppy
- or hard disk that has been severely damaged. This damage can be in the form of missing
- File Allocation Tables, missing Directories, deleted files, magnetically damaged disks, disks
- with holes in them or disks that have been contaminated in any way. The data that is
- recovered from the damaged disk is written to ASCII format files on another disk, where they
- can then be read, edited, and formatted by a word processor or text editor.
-
- System Requirements : READ MY DISK! requires an IBM PC or PC compatible with at
- least 256kB RAM, two floppy drives or one floppy and a hard drive, and an 80 x 25 display
- monitor.
-
- Read.com
- Load PGM2119

- The READ.COM program is a simple ASCII file reader utility; it displays, pages, and
- scrolls ASCII files up to a practical limit of about 512K in size, and up to 960 screens in length.
- READ.COM features automatic screen numbering, screen switching, and display attribute
- control. In addition, READ.COM supports the use of a mouse.
-
- Run
- Load PGM2117
-
- The RUN program is a hard disk utility designed to help users execute other programs.
- Hard-disk users generally must change to a proper directory, execute the program, and then
- change back to the original (or some other) directory when finished. Or they can use the
- PATH command to specify where DOS should look for programs to run; unfortunately, some
- programs do not work when they are run from another directory. RUN searches a hard disk
- for a specified program, changes to its directory, executes the appropriate commands to run
- the program (optionally passing any parameters to the program), and then returns to the
- original directory.
-
- System Requirements : RUN takes up about 25kB of RAM only when in use. It is not a
- Terminate-and-Stay-Resident (TSR) program.
-
- Securase
- Load PGM2120
-
- The SECURASE program is a secure file delete utility. The program will prompt the
- user for a name of the file to be erased, or a filename can be entered at the DOS command
- prompt as a parameter. The purpose of this program is to delete files in a manner that is
- unrecoverable. SECURASE will write over a specified file several times before deleting it,
- using the following scheme : first, the file is overwritten with binary zeros; second, the file is
- overwritten with binary ones; third, the file is overwritten with random garbage; fourth, the file
- is renamed to "serased.xxx"; fifth, the file is deleted. It is understandable why file recovery
- techniques cannot return a file deleted by this method. Even if the file is reconstructed, the
- disk space it once occupied contains garbage.
-
- SetAttr
- Load PGM2122
-
- The SETATTR program is a powerful and easy to use utility that helps users set file
- attributes (ie normal, hidden, read-only or system) for their files. One of the major advantages
- of SETATTR is that it supports the use of wild cards and directories, thus saving users a lot
- of time and hassle. SETATTR will also display the name of the files being modified along
- with the corresponding change. SETATTR is ideal for use on networked systems, where
- shared resources can be made private.
-
- Slice
- Load PGM2123
-
- The SLICE package consists of two useful utility programs, SLICE and JOINER. SLICE
- will take a file of any size greater than 10 kB and split it into a series of smaller segment files.
- A maximum "slice" size and an output filename may be specified by the user. This operation
- is useful for transferring large files that may not fit on standard low-density diskettes. After
- transferring the "sliced" files, the JOINER program may be used to regenerate the original file.
-
- Slim
- Load PGM2124
-
- SLIM is a powerful, but easy to use file compression system which gives the user
- painless access to compressed files. SLIM operates by intercepting DOS calls, allowing
- other program applications to read compressed files just as easily as before compression.
- Thus, users need not worry about technicalities such as archives. A proprietary algorithm
- significantly compresses almost all file formats found on PC's, thereby giving big savings on
- disk space. SLIM's compact size (less than 24kB) makes it practical for floppy as well as
- hard disk machines.
-
- System Requirements : IBM PC or MS-DOS machine, MSDOS version 2.00 or higher, and 256kB
- RAM (the RAM resident part of SLIM uses 73kB of main memory).
-
- Sort Directory
- Load PGM2126
-
- The SORT DIRECTORY (SD) program is a disk information utility which provides
- more information than the resident DOS DIR command about the files on a disk and allows
- the user to select, sort, format, and display the information in a variety of ways. This is
- accomplished by specifying a pattern name to select the desired files and by specifying
- any of a variety of command line switches. Default switch values have been carefully chosen
- to reflect the most common usages of SD. In addition, a memory resident (TSR) version of
- SD is included.
-
- System Requirements : SD operates on PC compatible computer systems using PC-DOS or
- MS-DOS version 2.0 or higher. This version of SD requires about 14kB of disk space and about
- 32-64kB of memory during execution, depending on the number of files and directories being
- processed. Support is provided for IBM-PC compatible MDA, CGA, MCGA, EGA, and VGA video
- adaptors and monitors.
-
- SUP
- Load PGM2127
-
- The SUP program utility automatically removes copy protection from most Sierra
- On-Line games, including the very popular King's Quest series and many more. An

- Users can move from drive to drive or from directory to directory simply by typing commands
- such as 'to a' or 'to dos' or 'to doc.87.' TO_QUICK uses either command line operation or
- menu operation.
-
- TwoDisks
- Load PGM2134
-
- The TWODISKS program is an MS-DOS external utility program which will READ
- and COMPARE the directories of two diskettes and display the results of the comparison.
- Users may subsequently copy or move files between the diskettes or delete files from one
- or both of the diskettes.
-
- TXT2COM
- Load PGM2129
-
- The TXT2COM program is a useful utility which converts an ASCII text file into an
- executable full screen display. It is useful for documentation and for "readme" files which
- can be shown on the screen and then printed out. The .COM file created by TXT2COM is
- easy to use and intuitive. There is a help line on the bottom of each screen and an optional
- title line at the top. Cursor controls allow easy movement around the file and the Esc key
- allows program exit.

- Load PGM2054
-
- The ZENO program is a small, fast, core-resident utility that speeds up certain screen
- writes. The actual increase in speed is almost three-fold, but the increase actually seen on
- the screen depends on the application program in use. The following is an example : with
- BCOMM operating at 9600 bps, the increase is approximately 20-30 percent. Note , however,
- that only certain programs take advantage of ZENO; but those that don't ,including PC-Write,
- are usually fast enough without ZENO.
