- Description :
-
- JD is a simple program. It reads the argument passed on the command
- line. The argument is used as a key into JD.DAT. If a record is
- located with the same key as the argument JD changes directories (and
- drives if necessary) to the drive and/or directory in the DirPath
- field. If no argument is provided JD lists all entries in the
- database.
-
- JDMAINT is used to maintain the database file JD.DAT. It is quite
- self-explanatory.
-
- The files JD.DFL, JD.DAT, JD.IDX must all be located in the same
- directory as the executable files JD.EXE and JDMAINT.EXE.
-
- JD.EXE and JDMAINT.EXE are written in Modula-2 using the SAGE
- Development System which was developed by Ken Russell and Howard
- Stewart of EG&G Idaho.
-
- My apologies to users with slow machines - I know for you it's faster
- to just type the CD command than to use this utility. I have an XT
- at home with a 65ms hard drive and I don't use JD very often.
-
-
- Example :
- Assuming that you had already used JDMAINT to define the directory
- name CSRC as D:\WORK\C\SOURCE you would enter
-
- jd csrc
-
- from the DOS command line to change directories to D:\WORK\C\SOURCE.
-
- To use JDMAINT enter
-
- jdmaint
-
- from the DOS command line.
