PMZipper v1.2 OS/2 PM Archive utility.
Changing Cdrom Disks:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Changing cdrom disks while the program is active on the cdrom drive
can cause a lockup. If changing cdrom disks, log to the "<C:>" drive, then
change the disk and log back to your cdrom drive. This is not a limitation
of this program only and a cure for this is being investigated.
Cdrom and Read Only Attribute:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OS/2 treats all files that are on a cdrom as being read only. This
attribute is carried with the file when it is either copied or
"dragged and dropped" to a hard disk or floppy. This attribute
must be cleared before the file can be deleted. From the command
prompt type "attrib -r <filename>". From the Program Manager, open
the settings pages for the file, select file, go to the third page, and
uncheck the "read-only" box.
PMZipper is Self Configuring:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are no user input options required. This causes a delay at startup
while the necessary files and directories are loaded and located.
Temporary Directory:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PMZipper first searches for a "TEMP" environment variable, next a "TMP"
environment variable. A working directory called "PMZipper.$$$" is created
under the temporary environment variable directory. Please check that the
temporary environment variable directory exists. Alternatively, "PMZipper.$$$"
is created under the installation directory. To set the temporary environment
variable directory, include "SET TEMP=drive\directory" in your config.sys. Don't
forget to also create the directory, then shutdown and reboot so OS/2 can read
in the changes you have made to the config.sys.
Timer Function:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PMZipper(UNREG) V1.2 is time limited. A signal will sound indicating the end
of a session. Shortly thereafter an orderly shutdown will begin. All work in progress
will complete and all program settings will be saved. Registration will void the timer
function.
Maximum File Listings:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The maximum number of file listings in the list box converts to approximately
1000 entries of an archive file. This is an OS/2 limitation.
