- Diskpix.exe 1.5
- (c) 1989 Charles J. Okstein
-
- Diskpix is a program to graphically display the state of all the hard disk
- drives in a system or network. It presents pie-chart displays showing the
- amount of free space on each drive and most importantly, the per-centage of
- the drive which has not yet been backed up.
-
- Running the program is an easy and fun way to get a quick mental picture of
- when back ups are needed.
-
- Program Requirements:
- Diskpix has been tested on EGA and VGA systems, but it should also work
- on CGA equipped systems.
-
- It should work with up to 26 hard drives (or RAM disks), displaying
- groups of four drives at a time.
-
- Note: The program will only work with consecutively lettered disk drives,
- and will stop functioning at the first missing drive letter. Therefore,
- a system with drives A, B, C, D, E will work fine, but A, B, C, E will not.
-
- Using the Program:
- 1. type DISKPIX from the dos prompt.
- 2. enjoy.
-
- Sharing the Program:
- If you like Diskpix, you are free to distribute it to friends and associates
- at no charge. No changes to the program are permitted.
- All rights reserved.
-
- Upgrade history:
- Diskpix 1.5 12/23/89
- 1. fixes bug when more that 4 drives are displayed in which the
- display would not pause on the second or succeeding pages.
- 2. changed colors of display.
- 3. changed definition of pie-segments: Now they more accurately
- reflect the status of the drive:
- A. 1st segment shows total of bytes already backed up
- B. 2nd segment shows bytes free
- C. 3rd segment shows bytes needing to be backed up
- A + B + C equals total capacity of drive.
