- DESCRIPTION
-
- CatFish is a disk catalog browser. It allows you to save snapshots of the
- directory/file structure of your disks and to search through them at any
- time. The catalog files maintained by CatFish are very compact and fast,
- and can easily handle the huge directory trees often found on large disks,
- removable disks, and CD-ROMs. CatFish will calculate total subdirectory
- sizes, and lists the date of the newest file found inside each directory.
-
- You can search all catalogs by file name (wildcards), size, and/or date.
- When used in Win 95/NT, CatFish will recognize and store long file names.
- Furthermore, CatFish can be used as an application or document launcher.
-
- New in 1.8: Long filename support for Windows NT as well as Windows 95.
- Search dir names, resizable main window, disk sizes/labels.
- More keyboard navigation: collapse/expand, next/prev letter.
- For a detailed list of changes, see the "WHATSNEW.TXT" file.
-
- Best of all, CatFish is free.

-
- GETTING STARTED
-
- Using CatFish is easy, just start it up. There is no installation, there
- are no DLLs, it runs on all Windows versions (and probably also on OS/2).
-
- When you start CatFish for the first time, it will give you a few tips.
-
- When you create catalog files, these will be placed in the same directory
- as CatFish (with a ".CF4" suffix). If you move CatFish, you must move the
- catalogs as well, otherwise these catalogs will no longer be accessible.
-
- To have CatFish open with the "Find" dialog window, start it up using the
- command line "catfish.exe /f" (Win 3.1: program item, Win 95: properties).
-
- TIP: If you have a very large number of disks, just distribute the catalog
- files over several directories and put a copy of CatFish in each of them.
-
