Chapter 1 - Introduction.
- 1.1 - FPLIST Program Description.
- FPLIST is a file viewer, compatable with all ASCII text
files.
- FPLIST, although not as powerful as Vernon Burg's
LIST.COM, provides you with a simple method for viewing
both small and large files.
- Find text within a file using 'FIND' and 'NEXT' functions.
- Scroll thru a file line by line, page by page, or go to
the top or bottom of a file.
- FPLIST is a free add on to the FootPrint Program. It is
not shareware as such, but registered users will receive
FPLIST without FootPrint registration reminders.
- Use FPLIST standalone for full screen viewing of files.
- 1.2 - Disclaimer.

evaluate copyright software before purchasing it.
- If you are dissatisfied with FootPrint in any way,
simply delete it, and you owe nothing. You may keep on
using FPLIST should you choose not to register FootPrint.
- If you paid a shareware distributor $3-8 for FootPrint
it was only for the cost of duplicating the diskette
and sending FootPrint to you.

Chapter 2 - Using FPLIST.
- 2.1 - Using FPLIST at DOS Prompt.
- Although FPLIST was intended for use as an external
FootPrint viewer, you may use it from the DOS prompt.
- Enter: FPLIST C:\PATH\FILENAME.EXT at the DOS prompt
- OR Enter: FPLIST (With nothing following) and enter the
path and filename in the input request box.
- 2.2 - Scrolling Keys.
- An important part of any file view is the ability to
move back and forth within the file.
- These keys control movement:
- ENTER KEY: Next Page.
- PAGE DOWN: Next Page.
- PAGE UP: Previous Page.
- HOME KEY: Top of File.
- END KEY: Bottom of File
- Down Cursor Arrow Key: One line down.
- Up Cursor Arrow Key: One line UP.
- Left Cursor Arrow Key: Move 8 Characters to the Left.
- Right Cursor Arrow Key: Move 8 Characters to the Right.
- 2.3 - Program Control Keys.
- Use ESCAPE, Q or X to EXIT program.
- Use F1 to display help screen.
- 2.4 - Using Find and Next.
- The ability to find a string in any position is
the essential part of any list utility.
- Use keys 'F' for Find, or 'N' for Next, in this way:
- 'F' for Find must be performed first.
- FPLIST will find the next matching text searching
from the top line of the display to the end of file.
- Make sure the file is 'HOME' to find every occurance.
- Use 'N' to find the 'Next' string.
- Next is functionally identical to 'find', but does not
display or allow changes to the find string.
- Matching text is displayed on a green background.
