DE 4DOS/NDOS Description Editor
Version 1.10, August 15, 1994
Copyright (c)1994 Ratsalad Software
───────────────────────────────────
Registration Information
────────────────────────
DE is shareware. As such, it may be freely distributed and used on a
trial basis.
You must delete this program after a 30 day evaluation period, unless
you register it with the author.
What are registration benefits?
───────────────────────────────
If you register DE, you will receive the following benefits:
■ Technical support via telephone, US mail, BBS, or internet mail.
See the file CONTACT.DOC for more information about contacting
Ratsalad software.
■ FREE registered maintenance releases, automatically delivered by
US mail to your address. (None of that "At Your Request" talk
here!) This covers only bug-fix releases, not major releases.
■ An opportunity to request any enhancements, changes, or
customization that you require. We can't promise that all
requests will be granted, but all will be seriously considered.
There are several improvements in the works:
- A block editor to replace the current line-editing capability
of DE. The block editor will display the description being
edited exactly as 4DOS or NDOS display the description in the
DIR command.
- An unlimited description length. Or at least a limit of 65527
bytes per description!
- Swapping on shells to increase memory availability when
running external programs.
- Configuration options for prompting, 43/50 line mode support,
creating automatic backups of description files, etc...
etc... etc...
- More useful directory and file utilities, including file copy
and move, disk searching and wildcard support.
- Support for 4DOS/NDOS colorized directories. DE will display
directories exactly the way 4DOS and NDOS do.
- Full mouse support, with mouse buttons on the dialogs.
- Key redefinition capability.
These improvements will be made to DE if there is demand for the
functionality they will provide.
