Changes From CATDISK V6.37 to V7.04
-----------------------------------
--[ CATDISK V7.04 ]------------------------------------------------------------
CATDISK: "Suggest Volume" feature wasn't working properly in some cases. Fixed.
CATMGR: Would not copy new records into the target catalog if the total number
of records would exceed 32767; Fixed.
--[ CATDISK V7.03 ]------------------------------------------------------------
CATDISK: When not extracting individual members of an ARJ file, CATDISK would
miss the main ARJ comment. Fixed.
CATDISK: When sorting by archive ID, any file with archive id "........" will
now appear at the top of the list.
CATDISK/D: Program was "losing" spaces in volume labels in some cases. Fixed.
DUPCLEAN: Fixed a bug when DUPCLEAN would try to erase a file and re-prompt.
If the target drive would be changed at this point, DUPCLEAN would
continue to try the old drive.
--[ CATDISK V7.02 ]------------------------------------------------------------
CATDISK: Separated the automatic disk comment entry option from the automatic
file comment entry for better flexibility. Added /ADC option to
activate the automatic disk comment. /AC operates as before.
CATDISK: Fixed a bug in the summary file update routines that could result in
lost or corrupted data in the .SUM file, as well as general protection
fault errors in CATDISK/D.
CATDISK/D: When un-cataloging a disk, the summary file now gets updated
correctly.
CDISKCFG: Added configuration option to accommodate the above.
CLEANCAT: Could cause data corruption to the summary file... fixed.
--[ CATDISK V7.01 ]------------------------------------------------------------
CATMGR: Copying/Moving catalog entries from the catalog on the right half of
the screen to the catalog on the left side would result lost records in
the target summary file. Fixed. Note that if the catalog on the right
side of the screen is the target (i.e. going from left to right), this
problem will not occur.
--[ CATDISK V7.00 ]------------------------------------------------------------
ALL: Added support for summary file comments. Adjusted screens and reports
to accomodate same.
ALL: Raised maximum program limitations to 4000 disks per catalog and
65534 files (standard CATDISK) or 999363 files (DPMI CATDISK version).
ALL: Added a /NOHIGH option to cause CATDISK to draw borders, etc. using
low ASCII characters. Allows for cleaner displays when running on
foreign language systems (eg. supporting oriental systems).
CATDISK: We now have a DPMI-compliant version of CATDISK (CATDISKD.EXE), which
can use extended memory on 286 machines and above for higher capacity.
CATDISK: Added a custom reporting facility to the program. You can now specify
which items to include, how they will appear in the report, and how
they will be sorted. Virtually infinite flexibility.
CATDISK: Added quick search feature to many of the screen-based reports.
CATDISK: Added /SLx parameter to allow setting of initial screen-based summary
report format.
CATDISK: Grouped /SD /CO and /SDCO command line options into one /Lx parameter.
CATDISK: Added file include specs to compliment the file exclude specs during
cataloging operations. Both can be changed via CDISKCFG.EXE.
CATDISK: Files By Subdirectory report added.
CATDISK: Added /NOBLINK parameter to make the arrows on the menus static (they
normally blink).
CATDISK: Added /ALLORNONE parameter to activate "Disk Only or All Files Read"
prompt when cataloging a disk.
CATDISK: Added /NOLIST parameter to disable the scrolling list of files that is
displayed as CATDISK updates a catalog file.
CATDISK: You may now press <Esc> to abort a process during disk-read operations
when cataloging/re-cataloging a disk or showing a disk's directory.
CATDISK: Eliminated the internal disk cache. If you require disk cacheing for
faster operation, we recommend that you use one of the many available
TSR programs designed specifically for this purpose.
DUPCLEAN: New! Capable of reading a catalog file to determine duplicate
files, allows you to tag the desired files to erase, performs the
necessary deletions (after prompting you for the appropriate disks),
and catalogs the disks on the fly.
DISKFILL: You can now specify how you would like the directories sorted via
via command line options.
DISKFILL: Added a list of disk volumes to automatically eliminate from the
list of disks to recommend when backfilling disks.
DISKFILL: Added /CATDISKD parameter to have DISKFILL use the DPMI-compliant
extended mode version of CATDISK (CATDISKD.EXE) to catalog floppies
after files have been copied to them.
DISKFILL: You can now change the target drive during a copy/move operation at
any of the "disk change" prompts along the way.
CATLOOK: Added "Files By Subdirectory" report.
CDISKCFG: Eliminated the 4 "canned" settings for disks/files per catalog. You
can now specify any number for either setting in increments of 1.
CDISKCFG: You can now set initial option settings in CATDISK and DISKFILL that
were previously accessible only by command line options or via the
Settings & Toggles menu in CATDISK.
