What is it?
===========
CDAxe is a very powerful directory/device util for CNet Amiga v3.05c.
Although CDAxe is specifically designed to provide your users with a very
easy way to traverse the many directories that exist on most CD-ROMs, it has
applications in other areas as well. Since, as is standard with MetalSoft
programs, CDAxe is so configurable, YOU decide what path it will use as it's
"startup directory".
Features:
=========
- Sysop definable number of buffered directories.
- Parent function will not recede further back than the "startup directory"
unless the user has SYSOP MAINT.
- Remembers the last position of the file/directory selector on buffered
directories so user does not lose his/her place when traversing through
directories.
- Configuration via CNet Visual Data Editor (VDE)
- Configurable access groups allowed to enter/use.
- Configurable access flags allowed to enter/use.
- Configurable minimum and maximum age allowed to enter/use.
- configurable gender allowed to enter/use.
- configurable file/byte percent charges (100% = charge byte per byte/file per
file).
- show or hide .info files.
- show or hide .readme files.
- choice to display DIRECTORY descriptions.
- read *.txt, *.doc, *.nfo, files.bbs, index files while in the CDAxe
interface.
- CNet CDRom temp path supported.
- capable of emulating "no maint" operation for sysop testing of how
CDAxe will act when a non-sysop uses it.
- CD "[N]ew directory" command to change directories internally as a SYSOP
feature, available only to maint users.
- COPY command to copy the currently highlighted file to another location.
This is a feature requiring sysop maint.
- MOVE command to move the currently highlighted file to another location.
This is a feature requiring sysop maint.
- MAKEDIR command to create a new directory. (requires SYSOP MAINT)
- DELETE command to remove files from the current directory. (requires
SYSOP MAINT)
- when the ENTER key is used to read, select or examine a file, CDAxe
performs actions based on file type.
- filetypes other than than CDAxe defined ASCII text are viewed using your
configured CNet ARCHIVERs.
Currently, the following types/extensions are recognized as readable
ASCII text and are displayed as such:
*.doc
*.nfo
*.txt
*.wri
*.readme
files.bbs
index
readme
- Edit/Add filenotes
- Supports description grabbing from .readmes and the ever-popular
FILES.BBS.
- Auto-selection/marking of .readme's.
