- XDIR (v2.02D) by Iram J. Weinstein REGISTRATION ($10.00)
- distributed by XD Systems
-
- XDIR is a replacement for the DOS commands DIR and COPY. It allows
- you to add your own comments to be displayed along with the normal DOS
- directory. You won't have to remember what MPDPROG.MEM was all about.
- The directory will remind you with a display like:
-
- MPDPROG MEM 2620 01-17-87 2:19p Maxon Paper Div. Progress Report
-
- XDIR allows you to edit these comments freely. You can copy or move
- files between directories or to another disk, and the comment text
- will automatically go right with it.
-
- XDIR also keeps track of usage of all files on your hard disks, and
- records the number of times each file is used and the date of last
- use. This feature is not active unless you have executed the resident
- module XDCOUNT.COM.
-
- XDIR has six modes: Help, Directory, Edit, Copy, Kill and Move. These
- modes are selected from the command line, e.g., XDIR /e. XDIR has a
- number of display options that can be selected as well. Options
- include: Pick, Sort, and Wide. XDIR /? displays a series of help
- screens describing the XDIR modes. If you can't wait to use XDIR, try
- this for a quick and handy tutorial.

-
- Incompatibility between XDCount and two PC compatible machines has
- been reported. The machines are:
- Leading Edge Model D2 (80286 processor)
- Columbia MPC-1600
-
- In both cases, XDCOUNT loads properly, but the machine locks up when
- the first applications program tries to terminate. A hard reboot is
- required to gain control of the PC.
