Lodji Utility Program v1.00 David W. Roscoe Regist. $ 30.00
UTIL NOV93 UTILITY DIRECTORY ZIP ARCHIVE BROWSE COMPARE
FILES: lup100.sdn
LUP (pronounced "loop") is a file utility program. Its
strength is in browsing and comparing disk directories and
[.ZIP] archive files. LUP presently supports only [.ZIP]
archives however support for other archive file types can be
added if there is sufficient demand.
Browsing the contents of [.ZIP] files with LUP is just like
browsing regular DOS directories. In fact, the directory of
a [.ZIP] file looks just like an extension of the DOS
subdirectory tree. This extension also applies to
subdirectories of the [.ZIP] file and to other [.ZIP] files
in the [.ZIP] file, i.e. nested [.ZIP] files, etc.! Move
the cursor to a text file and press <Enter> and you are
looking at its contents, even if it is in a multiply nested
[.ZIP] file. LUP's ability to browse inside of [.ZIP]
archives without extracting those files in a seperate step
makes for easy browsing of large [.ZIP] file collections
like those in CD-ROM libraries.
Also LUP can display more than one directory or [.ZIP]
archive at the same time. Unlike many other programs, which
display each directory in a seperate screen window, LUP
displays them in a single window. If two files with the
same name appear identical in two different directories then
their display occupies a single line, allowing more files to
be fit on a screen. Files which do not appear identical are
displayed on seperate lines in a way which emphasizes their
differences such as length and time stamp. This makes it
easy to detect new, changed, or deleted files. This feature
is especially useful when comparing related groups of files,
such as a directory and its backup copy, or two versions of
the same software package. When you move from one
subdirectory to another LUP attempts the move from each
subdirectory being displayed so that related files are
automaticly displayed together.
LUP has other miscellaneous file management functions such
as file and directory deletion, copying, etc.
Hardware Requirements : IBM PC compatible, 400Kb of disk
space, 512Kb of RAM.
Other Requirements : DOS version 3.0 or later, PKUNZIP for
browsing [.ZIP] archives.
