- TO PRINT THE CATDISK MANUAL, ISSUE THE COMMAND:
- ***********************************************
-
- COPY CATDISK.DOC PRN
-
- Please read at least the section on configuring CATDISK in the configuration
- section of the manual.
-
-
- -----------------------------------------------------
- If You Were Using A Version of CATDISK Prior To V2.10
- -----------------------------------------------------
-
- As there is now more information being stored in the summary file, you will
- have to discard your old catalog files and start from scratch. Any .SUM files
- created with CATDISK versions before V2.10 are NOT compatible with this one.
-
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- If You Were Using A Version of CATDISK From V2.10 to V3.28
- ----------------------------------------------------------
-
- Starting with CATDISK V3.50, file comments are fully supported (see, I am still
- listening to your suggestions!!). You do *NOT* have to purge your old catalog
- files and start over... just run the program CDISKCVT.COM on each catalog file
- that you have, and it will be converted to the new format.
-
- The syntax of this command is:
-
- CDISKCVT catalog_name
-
- - where catalog_name is the name of the catalog file to be converted.
- (do NOT include the filename extension of .DTA on the command line)
-

-
- *** NOTE TO ALL SINGLE DRIVE FLOPPY DISK USERS ***
-
- Previous versions of CATDISK may have caused problems with the directory of
- the diskette being catalogued getting overwritten when labelling a diskette
- or cataloguing it. This problem has been rectified with Version 2.00. To
- catalog on a single floppy system, set the catalog drive the same as the one
- on which the CATDISK work files reside. (i.e. if you start CATDISK from
- drive A:, set the catalog drive to drive A:) At the appropriate times,
- CATDISK will now prompt you to switch diskettes as they are needed.
-
- Users with a hard-disk, single floppy configuration, who are running CATDISK
- from the hard disk will NOT experience this problem and may proceed as
- normal. It's ONLY if the same PHYSICAL drive is being used for the CATDISK
- work files AND the diskette to be catalogued that the above precautions must
- be taken.
