diskSpace Explorer (TM) Version 2.0 (March 01, 1999)
Copyright (C) 1998, 1999 EAST Technologies

Introduction
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Keep a close look on your disk space with diskSpace Explorer, a space
manager that features an intuitive pie chart that graphically displays
the contents of your folders. You can easily navigate through your files
and folders just by clicking anywhere on the pie chart. diskSpace
Explorer reports detailed information about the amount of space used and
wasted by your files and folders. You may also see how your drive would
look with another cluster size or file system, feature that can help you
make intelligent allocation decisions. diskSpace Explorer can help you
gain free space by compressing folders, by reducing the wasted space or
by deleting the folders you no longer need. Fast, versatile and easy to
use.
Installation
----------------------------------------------------------------------
diskSpace Explorer is normally distributed inside a ZIP archive
through online services. Unzip the distribution files into a temporary
directory. Run the SETUP.EXE program by selecting Start/Run in
Windows 95. The setup program will prompt you for a destination
directory (C:\Program Files\diskSpace Explorer is default) and will
create a diskSpace Explorer program group. You may remove the setup
files from the temporary directory after the installation is
complete. An uninstall utility is included with diskSpace Explorer to
remove the program from your system.
If you experience problems during the installation please contact:

What's new in version 2.0? (March 01, 1999)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.0 contains a lot of major improvements. Many features have
been added.
*** Interface Improvements ***
The Pie Chart page has been redesigned. The pie chart display has been
improved. The user can now customize all the colors of the pie chart.
The Folder Information page has been redesigned. The information is
displayed in a more intuitive manner.
A new page (the Subfolders page) has been added. It lists the subfolders
of the current folder and contains detailed information about them.
The Wasted Space page has been redesigned. The wasted space information
is now displayed for individual folders, not only for drives.
A new page (the Free Some Space page) has been added. It contains a few
options that can be used to free up disk space.
*** Major Improvements ***
diskSpace Explorer can now help you to free up disk space. You can gain
space by compressing folders and their files to ZIP archives (diskSpace
Explorer can move folders to ZIP archive and later restore them to their
original location). You can reduce the wasted space by moving entire
folders on drives with a smaller cluster size. You can also delete the
folders you no longer need.
diskSpace Explorer is now able to display detailed information about
the amount of space wasted by individual folders, not only the amount
of wasted space on a whole drive.
When switching to a user defined cluster size, diskSpace Explorer no
longer has to rescan the drive(s) in order to report information using
that cluster size.
*** Other Improvements ***
diskSpace Explorer can now export pie charts to graphic files (.BMP or
.EMF).
A lot of new topics have been added to the On-Line Help. The
documentation has been improved and offers tips and solutions to reduce
the wasted space and to free disk space.
