GET is a file decompression utility that extracts files from an archive
file created by PUT.EXE. It can also display the contents of a PUT file.
USAGE: GET [drive:\directory][\file[.PUT]] [drive:\directory]
All command line parameters are optional. The first parameter is the name
of the input PUT (archive) file. By default the file will have a .PUT
extension, but you can specify any extension needed. The second command
line parameter is the drive and directory where the extracted files will
be stored.
EXAMPLE: GET C:\INPUT\COMPRESS C:\OUPUT
This example will extract and decompress all files in the
C:\INPUT\COMPRESS.PUT archive file to the C;\OUTPUT directory.
EXAMPLE: GET A:\BACKUP.AMI C:\WINDOWS\AMIPRO\DOCS
This example will extract and decompress all AMIPRO documents
that were compressed by PUT.EXE to the C:\WINDOWS\AMIPRO\DOCS
directory from the A:\BACKUP.AMI archive file.
EXAMPLE: GET \WORK\ARCHIVE \WORK
This example will extract and decompress all files in the
\WORK\ARCHIVE.PUT file to the same \WORK directory.
If you do not specify the second parameter, GET.EXE will popup a list of
drives and directories to choose from. After selecting a directory, all
files in the specified PUT file will be extracted to that directory.
EXAMPLE: GET B:\SAVEFILE
This example will popup a list of directories. Use the keyboard
or mouse to scroll through the list and pick the one you want.
All the files in the B:\SAVEFILE.PUT archive will be decompressed
and extracted into the choosen directory.
You can run GET without any parameters. In this case the first popup list
will be of drives, directories, and *.PUT files. Press <Enter> on a PUT
file to choose it, press <F8> on a PUT file to display its contents, press
<F4> at any time to choose a different disk drive, press <Enter> on a
directory name to go to that directory. As a short cut, you can press
the first letter of any entry to highlight it. Pressing the same letter
again will go to the next entry beginning with that letter. To display
a list of PUT files that have an extension other than .PUT, enter the
mask on the command line, like this: GET C:\PUTFILES\*.SAV
After choosing an input PUT file, GET.EXE will popup a list of drive and
directories where the extracted files will be stored. The window will
first display all the subdirectories of the current directory. You can
go to a subdirectory, parent directory, or root directory by highlighing
it, then press the <Enter> key or simply click on the entry with a mouse.
You can highlight entries by using the cursor keys, by clicking the mouse
on the up or down arrow heads, or by pressing the first letter of the entry
you want. To choose a directory, press <Enter> on the "Use this DIR" entry
or press <F2> while the directory wanted is highlighted. Press <F4> at any
time to choose a different disk drive. When the directory choice is made,
all files in the input PUT file will be decompressed and extracted to it.
PUT.EXE will compress files that can be used by GET.EXE.
