- ** The Amazing UnzipIt **
- Written by: Bryan Ladd
-
- Welcome and thanks for choosing to use this file!
-
- I don't really want to go into any big DEPTH on this product and
- no BIG Legal stuff, so heres all the basics.
-
- What do I need to get this to work?
- All you need is SCAN.EXE and PKUNZIP.EXE either in the
- directory where Unzipit resides or in your Dos path. You can
- update the SCAN and PKUNZIP as new releases are released.
-
- Reasons for making this program:
- I have over maybe 500 or 600 programs that are backed up on
- diskette and felt the need to save a little cash, so the need
- came up to ZIP the programs and STORE more programs on less
- disks. I got a little tired of sitting there doing this:
- md D:\pain
- Pkunzip -d A:pain.zip D:\pain
- Scan /a /d D:\pain
- So The need came up for me to write a little program on handling
- this problem and making life a little easier. And Wham-o, here it
- is!
-
- What exactly does this program do?
- It will ask for a Drive and/or Directory that the Zip
- resides in. It will then print a listing of ALL the Zips located
- in that Drive/Directory. You then Choose the Zip to process. It
- will then ask for a Drive/directory to Unzip the file TO(It will
- make a directory if it doesn't exist). It then unzips the files
- with the "-D" parameter already set, so you can pull out any
- directories that might exist inside the archive. Once that is
- done, it will scan for Viruses and if one is found it will delete
- it(Check to make sure!). And Thats About it!
-
- ***LEGALITIES***
- All the legalities and Product rules are listed at the beginning
- of the program, the AUTHOR takes NO RESPONSIBILITES on damages in
- ANY way. You run the program at YOUR risk ONLY. I say this,
- because alot of people like to sit there and incorporate viruses
- into your work, and then the author gets the blame.
-
- I guarantee that this program has NO viruses incorporated in it
- by the author.
-
- THIS IS A BETA TEST AND MIGHT NOT BE COMPATIBLE IN SOME ASPECTS
- The program doesn't have any error checking and might remain a
- little buggy until I can get the time, and I won't be able to fix
- it unless you tell me the problem...
- This program ran on a: 286 AT 10Mhz
- Color Monitor
- 640k and 512k Ext.
- !!!This program MIGHT not run on a Monochrome!!!
- If it doesn't work, have any comments,or would like to see a
- program made please feel free to leave me mail on Foxfire, leave
- it to ONE EYED LARRY. The Number for Foxfire is listed at the
- OPENING screen of the program.
