- OPERATION
-
- The best way to learn to operate this program is by running it, but for
- the sake of completeness operating instruction follow.
-
- Upon invocation, the program will open two windows on the screen. The
- left window will display the path to the current directory. The right
- window will display a list of directories. This list includes the
- subdirectories of the current directory. If the current directory is not
- the root directory, this list will also include the current directory's
- father directory which will appear in the list as "..".
-
- One of the listed directories will be emphasized by being displayed in
- inverse video. The program enables this emphasis to be moved thoughout
- the list of directories by means of the following keys:
-
- o Up Arrow - Moves the emphasis to the directory which is one above
- the directory which is currently emphasized.
- o Down Arrow - Moves the emphasis to the directory which is one below
- the directory which is currently emphasized.
- o Home - Moves the emphasis to the first directory in the list.
- o End - Moves the emphasis to the last directory in the list.
- o Other Keys - Moves the emphasis to the first directory whose name
- begins with the key which has been pressed.
-
- The following two keys are also supported by this program:
-
- o Enter - Sets the current directory to be the directory which is
- emphasized and restarts the program.
- o Escape - Exit this program and return to the DOS prompt.
