COMMENTS
4DESC is a full-screen editor for file descriptions (up to 40 characters)
for MS-DOS filenames and subdirectories. It presents a sorted listing of
the chosen directory, similar to the SELECT directory, and allows you to
add, modify, or erase descriptions for each file and subdirectory. You may
cut and paste descriptions from one file to another. Press F1 while in the
4DESC editor for details.
The 4DESC options are:
/mono Display in black and white.
/help Display the help screen before editing.
Note that the chosen directory must be the last option.
CAUTION: If any files in the chosen directory previously had descriptions
longer than 40 characters, those descriptions will be truncated when you
save your work.
See also 23DESCRIBE.
EXAMPLE
Edit file descriptions in the current directory:
c:\> 4desc
Edit file descriptions in the 4DOS directory:
c:\> 4desc \4dos\
