the C:\HANDYDOS directory of your hard drive which you have created.
Then use your editor or word processor to place the HandyDOS directory
the DOS path statement in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. The line should look
something like
PATH C:\DOS;C:\HANDYDOS;
6.0 DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAMS:
All programs will give USAGE summary information with the /? switch,

6.1 ATTRB.EXE

It is an easy-to-use WYSIWYG full-screen utility for changing file
attributes - to/from ReadOnly, Hidden, System and Archive modes (RHSA).

directories, which can only be changed individually.

DISCLAIMER AND SHAREWARE - AGREEMENT:
Users of ATTRB must accept this warranty disclaimer: ATTRB
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 ATTRB.
ATTRB is "shareware software" 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 ATTRB and
continue to use ATTRB after a reasonable trial period, you must
make the registration payment to Abri Technologies. 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 is not read by two different persons at the
same time.
Commercial users of ATTRB must register and pay for their copies of
ATTRB within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn.
Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting Abri Technologies.
You are encouraged to pass a copy of ATTRB along to your friends
for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they
find that they can use it. All registered users will receive a copy
of the latest version of ATTRB and software support for a minimum
of three months after registration.
