DISCLAIMER
Users of AMove must accept this disclaimer of warranty: "AMove is
supplied as is. The author disclaims all warranties, expressed or
implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of
merchantability and of fitness for any purpose. The author assumes
no liability for damages, direct or consequential, which may result
from the use of AMove."
SHAREWARE AGREEMENT
AMove is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the
user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but
please do not give it away altered or as part of another system.
The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal
computer users with quality software without high prices, and yet
to provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop new
products. If you find this program useful and find that you are
using it and continue to use it after a reasonable trial period of
thirty days, then you must register it. The registration fee will
license one copy for use on any one computer at any one time. You
must treat this software just like a book. An example is that this
software may be used by any number of people and may be freely
moved from one computer location to another, so long as there is no
possibility of it being used at one location while it's being used
at another. Just as a book cannot be read by two different persons
at the same time.
Commercial users of AMove must register and pay for their copies
of AMove within thirty days of first use or their license is
withdrawn. A BBS operated for profit IS a commercial environment;
however, a subscription system not operated for profit is not
considered a commercial environment in relation to this agreement.
Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting A.B.S. Anyone
distributing AMove for any kind of remuneration must first contact
A.B.S. at the address listed below for authorization. This
authorization will be automatically granted to distributors
recognized by the (ASP) as adhering to its guidelines for shareware
distributors, and such distributors may begin offering AMove
immediately; however, A.B.S. must still be advised so that the
distributor can be kept up-to-date with the latest version of
AMove.

WHATS.NEW - What's New in AMove
WHAT DOES AMove DO?
AMove moves or copies files to a new directory. Complete error
checking is performed, and the old copy is not deleted if an error
occurs. AMove is multitasker aware, and it will give up time
slices while moving and while waiting for input, to alleviate the
'system slow down' problem that is caused by disk access. AMove
recognizes the following MT/OS's: DESQview, TopView, TaskView,
OmniView, DoubleDOS, Windows 386 2.xx, Windows 3.x, and OS/2.
REQUIREMENTS
AMove should run on any system running MS-DOS 2.0 or higher with
at least 75K free RAM (only 15K free RAM is required for moving
files on the same drive). It does not use direct screen writes.
HOW TO RUN AMove
AMove [source file(s)] [destination directory] [options]
[source file(s)] is the path and filename (may include wildcards)
of the file(s) to move.
[destination directory] is the new directory to move the file(s) to.
[options] may be anywhere on the command line:
/H - Move Hidden and System files
/P - Prompt on each move
/Q - Quiet - minimal output
/R - Prompt before overwriting an existing file
/Z - Copy instead of Move (don't delete the source file(s))

Example:
AMove *.* C:\ /R
This will move all files in the current directory (except hidden
and system files) to the directory C:\. If a file with the same
name already exists in C:\, AMove will prompt before overwriting.
The AMove input prompt looks like this:
[Y/N/A/Q]?
Y - Yes
N - No
A - Always Yes (don't prompt for remaining files)
Q - Quit - Abort AMove
