QUICK-START
-------------
If it is necessary to use QFILER immediately, please read at
least this section first to become acquainted with the basic
options. Please read the rest of the documentation at first
opportunity.
QFILER may be invoked by typing QFILER and pressing [Enter]
at the DOS prompt. Once in QFILER, pressing "H" will display
a help screen with a quick summary of function, alt- and
control-key assignments.
Common QFILER actions are displayed in a menu at the bottom
of the screen. You may select one of the menu options by
pressing the tab key or spacebar until the desired option is
highlighted and then pressing [Enter] -- or more quickly, by
simply pressing the first character of each option.
Files are displayed in two windows. When selecting a
drive\directory (<F5> and <F6>) to be shown in one of the
windows, the following will be true:
C -- by itself will change to the root directory of
the drive\directory (C:\ in this case).
C: -- with a colon will change to the current
directory of the indicated drive\directory; if
no current directory, then the root directory.
C:\DOS -- any defined paths of 3 or more characters will
force QFILER to attempt to change to the
identified drive\directory.
INTRODUCTION
--------------
QFILER is designed to make management of your hard disk files
much easier. Two different, sorted directories are displayed
side-by-side, allowing you to select both individual files
and groups of files for QFILER to act on. You can easily:
- copy and delete files.
- rename files and directories.
- pass files to an external browse utility or favorite
text editor.
- move files from one directory to another.
- add and delete subdirectories.
- run other programs from within the QFILER environment.
- display files in sorted order.
- set a directory mask so that only certain files are
displayed.
- backup files.
- set Epson-compatible printer page length and send
a formfeed to the printer.
- print a hard copy of a sorted directory.
QFILER User Manual Page 4
QFILER version 3.0 adds the ability to display a visual,
sorted directory tree so you can quickly display a particular
subdirectory on either side of the QFILER screen. In
addition, QFILER adds many advanced file management tools
including the abilities to set or clear file attributes,
change file time/date stamps and rename the disk volume
label. As a bonus for users who upload and download files
from bulletin boards, QFILER links to ARChive utililies such
as Vern Buerg's ARCA, ARCE and ARCV to easily create,
extract, and view ARC'd files.
USER INTERFACE
----------------
QFILER makes full use of the PC keyboard, using the function
keys, the cursor keys, tab key, space bar, and several
Control/Alt-key combinations. In order to make full use of
all of QFILER's features, the following conditions should be
met:
The program is designed to operate satisfactorily with
DOS 2.x and above. DOS 3.x is the operating system of
choice, however. In some cases, the extensions offered
by QFILER depend on the presence of DOS 3.x
enhancements.
QFILER requires a minimum of 192K memory and one
diskette drive for operation on an IBM-PC/XT/AT or
compatible computer. Additional memory is required to
use shell options.
The monitor may be either a color or a monochrome unit,
with an installation program supplied to modify default
QFILER color combinations.
Printers to be used with QFILER's setup options <Ctrl-P>
should be EPSON-command compatible.
SETTING UP
------------
In preparation for using QFILER, if DOS 3.x is in use, invoke
PRINT.COM from either the autoexec.bat file or from the DOS
prompt. QFILER.EXE is started by typing QFILER at the DOS
prompt. For ease of invoking, it may be advisable to rename
QFILER.EXE to QF.EXE -- but that is up to the user.
QFILER is invoked by entering
QF[iler] [LeftDirectoryPath] [RightDirectoryPath]
at the DOS prompt. The square brackets are used to denote the
options, and are not typed.
The Disk\Directory to be read and displayed for the left or
for both windows may be included as a command line option
QFILER User Manual Page 5
when invoking QFiler. Otherwise, the default drive and path
directory will display in the left window. The syntax rules
are the same as discussed under QUICK-START on page three.
This will save keystrokes when, for example, it is desired to
view the "A:" drive, when presently logged in to the "C:"
drive.
The following is a facsimile of QFILER on a monitor screen.
Some of the on-screen refinements are, of course, not
possible when printers are concerned, so it will look a bit
different in actual use, and will contain more lines. Use
this illustration for reference in the User's Manual.

QFILER User Manual Page 6
SCREEN ORGANIZATION OF QFILER
-------------------------------
The QFILER screen, as seen in Figure 1, is divided into three
sections with dual side-by-side upper file windows for the
display of file information and a two-line bottom section for
messages and menu.
In each of the upper file windows the top line (row) shows
the active directory mask, volume label for the respective
displayed disk and active sort option for that side. The
second window row, in reverse-video, will display the full
DOS path for the directory displayed in the window. The large
central window area is the main file display area, in which a
full DOS directory (DIR) format is shown. The directory
additionally displays hidden files and, when applicable, file
attributes Archive, Read-only, Hidden, and System. Only one
of the two windows may be considered "current" for menu or
function key actions. Currency is shown by a moving reverse-
video bar highlighting the "current file" within the "current
window". Below the main display, another reverse-video row,
shows the directory size, total bytes tagged, and remaining
bytes of disk space.
The bottom section contains, as its top row, the message
line. Here QFILER tells the user what is happening, or what
the current menu selection description is. Finally, the last
line on the screen is the Menu Bar, with the current
selection highlighted and the rest in reverse video.
QFILER User Manual Page 7
NAVIGATING THE QFILER SCREEN
------------------------------
QFILER utilizes most of the keyboard in is operation. There
are three logical areas of keyboard control:
1. Cursor pad selector/pointer movement.
2. Function key program control.
3. Typewriter keyboard command control.
The cursor-key pad controls the combination file-selector and
window-selector. The keys used on the cursor pad, and their
functions are:
1. Right-Arrow - Select Right Window.
2. Left-Arrow - Select Left Window.
3. Up-Arrow - Scroll selector pointer up or
window down a line.
4. Down-Arrow - Scroll selector pointer down or
window up a line.
5. Home - Selector to top of Window.
6. End - Selector to bottom of Window.
7. Page-Up - Scroll window up one page.
8. Page-Dn - Scroll window down one page.
Control-cursor-key combinations.
1. Ctrl-Home - Scroll window to top of disk/dir.
2. Ctrl-End - Scroll window to end of disk/dir.
The function keys control all the display options. These
include sort order and drive or subdirectory viewed. The
function keys also allow modification of file attribute
bytes and creation/deletion of subdirectories. To use a
function key, select a file to use (using the arrow keys), or
tag the files to be used (see F9, F10 or the TagAll command
below), and press the function key. The function keys are
used as follows:
FUNCTION KEY ASSIGNMENTS
--------------------------
Normal Function-Key assignments.
----------------------------------
F1 - Create a new subdirectory (DOS MKDIR/MD).
User is prompted for name at command line at
the bottom of the display.
F2 - Remove selected subdirectory. (DOS RMDIR/RD)
F3 - Display selected subdirectory in left window.
F4 - Display selected subdirectory in right
window.
F5 - Prompt for a new path in left window.
F6 - Prompt for a new path in right window.
F7 - Sort the current window by name.
F8 - Sort the current window by extension.
F9 - Tag or untag current file for group action.
F10 - Same as F9, but advance to next file.
QFILER User Manual Page 8
Shifted Function-Key assignments.
-----------------------------------
F1 - Set archive bit on current or tagged file(s).
F2 - Clear archive bit on file(s)
F3 - Hide current file, directory, or tagged files.
F4 - Unhide current file, directory or tagged files.
F5 - Protect current or tagged file(s).
(Make them "Read-Only").
F6 - Unprotect current or tagged file(s).
F7 - Sort current window by file size, ascending.
F8 - Sort current window by file date, then time,
ascending.
F9 - Set time and date stamp on current or tagged
file(s). System parameters may be accepted.
Date is entered as: 09-14-87. Time is entered
as: 08:05:00 or 11:56:23. Enter as 24-hour
clock.
F10 - Enter a file mask for directory searches. If
you press [Enter] without entering a mask,
QFILER will default to all files ("*.*").
File masks remain in effect until changed,
and if not "*.*", will be displayed at the
top left corner of the file window.
Menu-Bar selections control QFILER actions, and are invoked
by either moving the highlight to the desired command via the
spacebar or tab-key, and pressing [Enter], or by keying the
first letter of the command name. The spacebar or tab-key
moves the highlight to the right and the tab-key, when
shifted, moves the highlight to the left. Of the various
options, mnemonic control is the fastest method of control.
MENU COMMANDS
---------------
The commands are as follows:
UnTagAll... Will turn off any file highlighting within
current window.
Copy....... Will cause DOS copy to be executed on current or
tagged files.
Move....... Will move (without copying, if possible) files
from one subdirectory to another.
Files will be MOVED (rather than copied) across
subdirectory boundaries if the following condi-
tions are met:
1. DOS 3.x is in use.
2. Two directories of the same disk drive are
displayed in the two windows.
QFILER User Manual Page 9
The advantages of moving files are that the move
is performed faster than copy and that moving
files does not degrade hard disk performance
through disk fragmentation caused by reorg-
anization. Note that MOVE is the equivalent of
copying from one subdirectory to another, then
deleting the files from the original directory...
except the files are not physically moved, just
their disk location identifier.
Delete..... Will cause DOS delete to be executed on current
or tagged files.
TagAll..... Will turn on file highlighting for all files
within current window, so that all files will be
subject to action. Selected files may be
untagged with either the F9 or F10 keys.
Rename..... Will cause DOS rename to be executed on current
file. New name will be prompted for.
In addition (if using DOS 3.x) a subdirectory may
be renamed by making it the current file, then
selecting RENAME. After renaming a subdirectory,
that subdirectory will be displayed in the
alternate window.
Exec....... The current file, if an executable type, i.e.,
with extension BAT, COM, or EXE, will be run with
a command line furnished for parameter entry.
There are two additional methods included (Ctrl-E
& Ctrl-S) that will allow other programs to be
run from within QFILER. These are covered in the
CONTROL-KEY area of this document.
Pick....... Will show an alpha-sorted, visual directory tree
with the current subdirectory highlighted. You
may use the cursor keys to select another
subdirectory, then [Enter] to display it, or
[ESC] to return to the normal display.
List....... For file display, the user is given a choice of
<S>creen, <E>dit, <P>rint, <C>ancel all print
jobs, <L>itlbook, <F>indit, or <ESC> to quit.
The brackets signify the letter or key to be
pressed to call the option indicated.
<S> will invoke the browse program LIST.COM for
the current file. LIST will allow full screen
ASCII or HEX browse, and must be in the QFILER or
other pathed directory.
QFILER User Manual Page 10
<E> will invoke a batch file, called QFED.BAT,
(created by the user in his QFILER directory),
and pass to it the current file path, name, and
extension. QFED.BAT needs one line consisting of
the path and name of the user's editor, and a
replaceable parameter. For example, if the editor
was KEDIT, stored in the \PROG directory, the
batch file would consist of the line:
\PROG\KEDIT %1
If DOS 3.x is in use and PRINT.COM is installed
before running Quick Filer, <P> will add files to
the print queue without exiting the program. If
desired, all jobs in the print queue may be
cancelled by pressing <C>. (Equivalent to the /T
terminate command).
<L> will call (through LB.BAT) LITLBOOK.COM, an
address book database. You may enter a search
string to locate the entry to be displayed. The
LB.BAT file you create should change to the
LITLBOOK directory, then call LITLBOOK with a
replaceable parameter:
CD \LITLEBOOK
LITLBOOK %1
<F> will link to the FINDIT.COM program, which
which will search the specified or default drive
for all occurrences of the file search mask
passed to it from the user input requested by
this option at bottom of the screen. The results
of the search will display on the following
screen. Pressing the enter key with no search
mask will cause FINDIT to display a full screen
of help information. Searches resulting in more
than one screen may be piped through the DOS
external command, MORE.COM, to pause each screen.
Please read the documentation for FINDIT for
complete understanding of the program.
Volume..... The current window disk may be given a volume
label with this option. The user is prompted for
the label.
Quit....... Exits program and returns to DOS.
<H>........ Two screens of help notes for user reminder --
displayed on the non-active side of the QFILER
display.
QFILER User Manual Page 11
After a menu selection is made, either by spacebar/tab-key or
mnemonic choice, QFILER will check to see if any files are
tagged. (These are files highlighted by the F9/F10 key.) If
it finds tagged files, it will ask whether the user wants to
act upon the tagged files or the current file only. The user
will see a prompt on the message line and a small two choice
menu replacing the main one, which indicates the two
available choices. A spacebar or mnemonic choice is to be
made here. If no files are tagged, the user is prompted for
appropriate path or name entry. Then QFILER will ask for
verification of the pending action. A "y" response causes
execution of the command, and an "n" aborts the operation and
returns to the normal display with any highlighted files
still highlighted.
CONTROL/ALTERNATE-KEY COMBINATIONS
------------------------------------
<Ctrl><A> From the main display, will bring up a menu line
showing the following options: <A>dd <E>xtract
<V>erbose Listing <ESC> Quit. These options call
Vernon Buerg's ARCA, ARCE, and ARCV programs,
respectively, which must be in the QFILER or other
pathed directory. These options allow use of the
ARChive file format, made popular by System
Enhancement Assoc., 21 New St., Wayne, NJ 07470.
ARCA (create or add to an ARC file) -- First mark
all the files to be included in the ARC file. Then
press Ctrl-A, then "A". QFILER will prompt for the
ARC file name. A path may be included if the ARC
file is not to be created in the current directory.
Use QFILER sort options, if desired, before
creating the ARChive.
ARCA NOTE: Although the ARCA DOC's mention that
ARCA is not intended to be used precisely in
the manner QFILER links to it, it does work...
if there is no .ARC of the same .ARC name as
the one you are creating. Please check to be
certain you are not inadvertently "adding" to
an existing .ARC file that may already include
one of the files you are "adding" to it. The
ARCA doc's further mention that if there is
sufficient "clamor" to modify ARCA to include
the ability to update included files to
contact Vern Buerg at the BBS number listed in
his docs. Until or unless ARCA specifically
includes the ability to update included
files, simply be aware of the need to be
certain you are actually creating a new .ARC
file. The QFILER approach does work: All
QFILER.ARC files were created by QFILER itself,
linking to ARCA.
QFILER User Manual Page 12
ARCE (extract or expand an .ARC file) -- Make the
desired ARC file the current file, then press
Ctrl-A followed by "E". The command line as it
will be passed to Command.Com will be displayed at
the bottom of the screen. To extract all files in
the ARC file to the current directory, just press
the return key. If only one file is to be
extracted, or files are to be extracted to some
other disk or directory, first press the <END> key
to move the cursor to end of the command line, then
enter the path and/or filespec to pass to ARCE.
ARCV (Verbose listing of ARC file contents) -- Make
the desired ARC file the current file, then press
Ctrl-A followed by "V" for the listing of the ARC.
Please read the documentation for ARCA, ARCE and
ARCV for an explanation of command line options.
<Ctrl><B> Will initiate the QFILER BACKUP utility. Any
tagged files in the "source" directory window will
be compared to files in the "target" directory
window. Files will be copied, only if they do not
exist on the target, or if the date/time stamp on
the source files are newer than those on the target
files. File remain tagged for optional deletion.
<Ctrl><E> Will allow entering a program name as if at the DOS
prompt. For convenience, <F10> will return the
current path\filename. QFILER will then change to
the ENTRY drive\directory and pass the command
line to COMMAND.COM. Upon completion of the passed
program, press any key to return to QFILER.
EXAMPLE: Suppose it is necessary to run DISMOD on
the current file. First press <Ctrl><E>.
Then type DISMOD. Then press <F10> to
input the current file. Press Enter.
<Ctrl><F> Provides an automatic link with FILECAT (through
FCDISK) that creates a text file on a target disk
that lists files on the disk (in alpha order),
filesize, and description of the file (if the file
is included in the FILECAT database). To use this
feature both FCDISK and FILECAT must be in the
QFILER or a pathed directory. To use, do the
following:
a. Be certain that FCDISK is either with the
FILECAT data files, or pathed.
b. Bring up the target disk/dir (the one where a
text file to be written) on one side of QF.
QFILER User Manual Page 13
c. Bring up the FILECAT data file disk/dir on the
alternate side.
d. Be certain the flashing cursor and pointer are
on the FILECAT side of the QFILER display.
e. Press <Ctrl><F>. QFILER will automatically load
FCDISK.
f. Answer the questions that are asked. The text
file will be created on the target disk and the
user will be returned to QFILER.
NOTE: The following steps are optional:
g. Make the target disk side the current window.
h. Press <Ctrl><R> to refresh the side and display
the new file.
i. Point to the new file, then press "L" then "S"
to list to the screen and view what was created.
<Ctrl><P> From the main display, will bring up a menu line to
set or cancel skip-over-perf and to send a
form-feed, for Epson-compatible printers. You may
press "D" to print a listing of the current, sorted
directory.
<Alt><R> Will refresh the entire screen display of QFILER.
This will straighten out a screen that may have
been messed up by stray DOS hardware messages and
the like.
<Ctrl><R> Will refresh the display of the current window.
This is handy if the user has "shelled" to DOS and
has changed the displayed directory by adding or
deleting a file. The refresh will display the new,
changed directory.
<Alt><S> Display files unsorted -- as they are actually
stored on your disk.
<Ctrl><S> Is for those instances where the previously
explained <Ctrl><E> procedure won't work (commands
within COMMAND.COM itself, like DIR). Pressing
Control-S will load a secondary copy of COMMAND.COM
and return to the DOS prompt. (The user will be in
the CURRENT drive\directory). When ready, type
EXIT to return to QFILER.
QFILER USERS' MANUAL PAGE 14
QFINST -- A QFILER Configuration Utility
------------------------------------------
QFINST allows the user to change many of QFILER's default
values, including:
SORT CHOICE -- the way QFILER will sort files when first run.
You may select file name, extension, size, date or
unsorted. Normally sorted by file name.
FILE MASK -- the mask used to select files to be displayed by
QFILER when first run. Normally all files ("*.*").
ARCHIVE UTILITY -- the utilities used to perform ARC'd file
creation, extraction and verbose listings. If you choose
to use utilities other than Buerg's ARCA, ARCE and ARCV
you will need to create three batch files called
QFARCA.BAT, QFARCE.BAT, and QFARCV.BAT with appropriate
replaceable parameters to pass QFILER's command line to
your selected utilities.
CHECK SNOW ON CGA -- if you experience "snow" on your CGA
color monitor, you should set this default to YES.
Normally QFILER will not wait for horizontal retrace
intervals when writing to video memory (since EGA
monitors are becoming more common), so this default is
normally NO.
DIRECT SCREEN WRITES -- Normally YES, QFILER will write
directly to video memory, but if you wish to redirect
through BIOS calls (at a substantial loss of speed) you
may set this default to NO.
CONFIRM EXIT -- Normally QFILER will return to DOS
immediately after you press "Q" (Quit), without
confirming the action. If you wish to be asked if you
really want to quit, set this default to YES.
COLORS -- You may customize the color combinations used in
QFILER's displays, or return to the original program
defaults.
To invoke QFINST, first backup your original copy of QFILER.
Be certain both QFILER.EXE and QFINST.EXE are in the same
directory, and you are logged on that directory. Then type
QFINST at the DOS prompt and press [Enter]. QFINST will
prompt you though your choices. Make the changes you desire
and press [ESC].
If you choose to accept your changes, QFILER itself is
modified. If you have a copy of QFILER that you suspect has
been modified, check the second of the two help screens. A
modified copy of QFILER will display a "modified" notice.

MISCELLANEOUS
---------------
QFILER has as many user safeguards built in as possible, with
