PUT is a file compression utility that produces an archive file containing
all files in a directory or that match a mask entered on the command line.
This file can be decompressed by GET.EXE or by the MicroFox Install Program.
USAGE: PUT [drive:\directory[\mask]] [[drive:\directory\]file[.PUT]] [QUIET]
All command line parameters are optional. The first parameter is the
directory and files to compress. The default mask is all files (*.*).
The second parameter is the name of the output PUT (archive) file. By
default the file will have a .PUT extension, but you can specify any
extension you want. The third parameter determines if a confirmation
prompt will be displayed for overwriting an output put-file with the
same name and for beginning the compress process.
EXAMPLE: PUT C:\INPUT C:\OUTPUT\COMPRESS QUIET
This example will compress all files in the C:\INPUT directory
to the C:\OUTPUT\COMPRESS.PUT archive file with confirmations.
EXAMPLE: PUT C:\WINDOWS\AMIPRO\DOCS\*.SAM A:\BACKUP.AMI
This example will compress all AMIPRO files with an extension
of SAM to A:\BACKUP.AMI from C:\WINDOWS\AMIPRO\DOCS directory.
EXAMPLE: PUT \WORK \WORK\ARCHIVE
This example will compress all files in the \WORK directory to
ARCHIVE.PUT in the same directory.
If you do not specify the second parameter, PUT.EXE will ask for the name
of the output Put-File. You will be able to key in the complete path and
file name. At that time, you will also be able to press <F8> to display
a list drives and directories to choose from. If you choose a directory
from the list, it will appear (with the default file name: ARCHIVE.PUT)
as the output Put-File. You will then be able to change it or press the
<Enter> key to accept it. Specified input files will then be compressed.
EXAMPLE: PUT C:\WP\TEXT\*.DOC
This example will prompt you for the Put-File. At the prompt
you can key in the name of the Put-File or you can press <F8>
to pick a drive & directory, then add the file name to it.
Press <Enter> to compress and archive all files with a DOC
extension from the C:\WP\TEXT directory to the named Put-File.
You can run PUT without any parameters. In this case the first popup list
will be of drives and directories to choose what files to compress. Once
this choice is made you are prompted for the name of the output Put-File.
You can key in any drive, directory, file name, and extension. If you do
not enter a drive and directory, the current one will be used. If you do
not enter an extension, ".PUT" will be used. If you are creating an
archive file to use with MicroFox's Install Program, you must give the
file an extension of ".INS". By default GET.EXE will look for a ".PUT"
extension but can use any other extension.
If the output file already exists, a overwrite confirmation window will
appear. Next, a window opens showing the input to be compressed and the
output file they will be archived into. Press <Enter> to continue and
all the files in the input directory will be compress to the output file
or press <Esc> to cancel and return to the DOS prompt.
The common drive and directory popup windows will display all the drives
directories and subdirectories available. You can go to a subdirectory,
parent directory, or root directory by highlighing it and pressing the
<Enter> key or simply by clicking on the entry with a mouse. You can
highlight entries by using the cursor keys, by clicking the mouse on the
up or down arrow heads, or by pressing the first letter of the entry you
want. To choose a directory, press <Enter> on the "Use this Dir" entry
or press <F2> while the directory wanted is highlighted. Press <F4> at
any time to choose a different disk drive.
PUT.EXE will compress and archive files that can be used
by GET.EXE and the MicroFox Install Program. GET, PUT
and INSTALL were written by Jim Hass of MicroFox Company.
