- The name ArcMaster is short for the term Archive
- Master where the word archive means a place where documents
- and/or records are kept. In the modern world of personal
- computing, these documents and records are maintained in
- computer files. These files are frequently compressed and
- grouped together in archive files by special computer
- programs such as PKZIP, ARCA, PAK, LHA, and ARJ. All of these
- special programs are operated from the DOS command line and
- require the entry of numerous and varied command line
- switches in order to maximize their utility.
-
- ArcMaster, hereafter known as AM for short, is an
- archive program interface control system. It provides a clean
- interface that removes the burden of remembering all the
- various command line switches and options that may be used
- with archiving programs. In addition, AM is a powerful and
- flexible DOS shell that provides numerous ways in which the
- user can maintain and manipulate his/her DOS directory and
- file structures.
-
- AM may be used as a stand-alone program in its useful
- role as a DOS shell, but in order to manipulate compressed
- archive files the user must have present in his/her system at
- least one of the supported archive programs. A list of
- supported compression/decompression archive programs appears
- in the full documtation.
