- HLIST.EXE V. 1.1
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- HLIST is an advanced program to display text files with ASCII format.
- The program is mouse and keyboard driven. Its main purpose is to browse
- CD-ROM or disk of archives having ZIP format: it may read a file direc-
- tly inside the archive.
- It handles a summary functions that accesses to a chapter by a click
- on its title. A built-in search function allows to search a file to
- read inside a whole disk.
-
- It can load files without any size limit.
- Lines can take up to 256 characters long.
-
-
- Syntax:
-
- HLIST [DRIVE:][DIRECTORY]FILENAME
-
- Examples: HLIST SHELL.DOC
- HLIST A:SHELL.DOC
- HLIST \DOS2\SHELL.DOC
-
- If the file is not found in the current directory, it will be searched
- inside the whole disk.
-
-
- Buttons and shortcut keys:
-
- Hlist h Display version number and copyright.

- PAGE- PgUp Previous page.

- Dir d Display tree and current directory content.
- C>.. F3 Quit the program.
- ? F1 Put the help screen on background, or remove it.
- If the text hides this permanent help screen,
- move it to left with CTRL-RIGHT.
-
- Other commands:
-
- CTRL-LEFT Move 20 columns left.
- CTRL-RIGHT Display 20 columns right.
- CTRL-HOME Return to left column.
- CTRL-n or n Search again.

- PAGE UP/DOWN Next/Previous page.
- HOME First file.
- END Last file.
- ENTER Display this file.
- F1 Display/Remove a help screen.
- l Locate a file.
- r Run an executable: EXE, COM or BAT files.
- This requires MENU.BAT launched rather than
- HLIST.EXE directly.
- F3 Quit to the starting directory.
- q Quit to the current directory.
-
- Summary and chapters
-
- HLIST allows to move directly to a chapter. If chapter titles are
- listed into a summary, click on the proper title to go the chapter.
- When making the summary with a text editor, use preferably the cut and
- copy command to add the title of the chapter to the summary, as this
- title access function requires an exact matching, but case sensitivity
- however.
-
- ZIP archives
-
- HLIST may display content of an archive having ZIP format. It may also
- display a file from the archive.
- This require PKUNZIP (c) can be found via the PATH MS-DOS feature.
- If you use UNZIP you may rename it or copy it. However I have noted
- UNZIP Version 5.01 doesn't extract a file that have no extension and
- such a file cannot be displayed.
-
- Description of file
-
- The directory now display a 40 characters description of file according
- to its extension. These descriptions are stored into the text file
- HLIST.EXT. You may change the descriptions and add to other until 64.
- The format of a line is 3 characters for the extension, lowercases, a
- space and until 40 characters for the description to display.
-
- Launching a program
-
- By typing the MENU.BAT command rather than HLIST, it will become a
- menu program, and files with EXE, COM or BAT extension may be launched
- by a press on the 'r' key. If MENU.BAT has not been used, to type 'r'
- only returns to DOS.
-
-
- The version 2.0
-
- This program is freeware. You may freely use it or send that you want.
- You may also get the version 2.0 of the program by sending $20.
- Then you will receive on a disk this improved version, a (short)
- printed manual, and shareware versions of my other programs.
-
- Version 2.0 has more features that this one:
- - an easy dictionnary function: click on the word to display its defi-
- nition. The dictionnary filename is the second parameter, the default
- is the node of the viewed file with a "dic" extension.
- - a hypertext functions. Click on a word to access a a linked text in
- the same or another file.
- - more archive functions. May extract a ZIP archive without exiting the
- program.
- - saving of setup, and many more features.
