Disk Label Utility
Version 1.00.00b
I have finally completed my first PM program which I promised myself
when I was first introduced to OS/2. My next goal is to convert this
program to Windows 3.0 which should not be too hard since the programming
method is very similar.
This program can be freely distributed if the program is not modified
in anyway. I am currently working on a future release of this program, and
too help make this program suitable for all users, I am open to any
suggestions on any enhancements or bugs that need to be fixed. So comment
on anything you see fit. I can be reached at the following address until
December 1990, since I will be graduated from OSU with a Computer Science
degree and hopefully will either be working or persuing my MS degree. Or I
can be reached e-mail if you have access to e-mail.
Mailing Address: Jim Huang
155 NW Kings Blvd.
N-305
Corvallis, OR 97330
Above address is valid until December 1990.
Electronic Mail: huangj@nyssa.cs.orst.edu
uunet!nyssa.CS.ORST.EDU!huangj@uunet.UU.NET
* If the first e-mail address doesn't work, try the second one.
A formal documentation will be created if there are enough interest in
this program.
DISCLAIMER::
Due to viruses scattered across the world, I am not responsible
for anything happening on your system. I recommand checking out your
system and all files before using it, even this program. There is always
a good chance someone embedding a virus in a program and re-distributing
it. If you like to get a copy directly from me which will be virus-free,
send $5.00 to cover material and shipping fee to the mailing address. Also
specify size of disk.
PURPOSE::
This program will do three things:
1. Print the files on the disk on to 3-1/2" and 5-1/4" Disk
Labels
2. Print text which you like to enter on the disk labels
3. Keep a file of all the files you might have collected
When I wrote this program, the only size label I have is:
3.5" : 2.75" x 2.00"
5.25" : 4 11/16" x 1 3/8"
Future release of this program will allow user to use any size labels.
Features::
Files --
New -> 5.25" -> List Files
New -> 3.5" -> List Files
This feature will allow the files on the disk to be printed on the
disk label. The user will have the option of filtering the files
to be printed on the disk.
New -> 5.25" -> Enter Text
New -> 3.5" -> Enter Text
This feature will allow the user to enter text to be printed on the
label. There are three justifications that you can choose for each
line (LEFT, CENTER, RIGHT).
For 5.25" Disk you will be allow to enter up to 8 lines of text and
for 3.5" disk you will be allow to enter up to 12 lines of text.
New -> To File
This feature will keep a list of files on disk so you can keep a
master list on disk. The only weak part of this feature is it
does not sort the entire list. I am currently using Microsoft
Word 5.0 to sort my list and will be implementing a sort routine in
the future release.
Once the list has been created, you can also appending any future
files to the existing list without having to recreate the entire
list.
The list will tell you everyting that the command DIR shows.
Printer Port
This program will support up to LPT4:. Since I only have LPT1: and
LPT2: setup on my system, if anybody have LPT3: and LPT4: on your
system, please test these two ports out for me, so I'll know that
there are no bugs with the last two ports.
Exit
This will end the program.
About
Just like any About box.
Drive --
Selects which every drive you are trying to read from, since not
everybody have the same drive configuration.
Printer --
The printers which this program will support. If you have a
different printer and none of the following printer selection will
work properly on your printer, let me know and I will implemented
it into a next release or even a personal release just for you. I
will need the following information from you if you:
Escape Code for the following:
1. Compress Mode (set/release)
2. Unidirectional Print Mode (set/release)
3. Elite (12 Pt.)
4. Set 1/8 line spacing
5. Reset printer
Enjoy and let me know what you think.
