- THE USER-SUPPORTED CONCEPT
-
-
- User-supported software is an experiment in distributing computer programs
- based on the following beliefs:
-
- 1. That the value and utility of software is best assessed
- by the user on his/her own system.
-
- 2. That the creation of personal computer software can and should be
- supported by the computing community.
-
- 3. That copying of programs should be encouraged, rather than restricted.
-
-
- Anyone may legally obtain an evaluation copy of the program from a friend or
- computer club. After you have had a chance to use and evaluate the program in
- your own environment, you are trusted to either forward a payment to Tarbex
- Software or to discontinue use of the program.
-
- If an "Evaluation notice" screen is displayed and you have to press a key to
- continue each time you start the program, then you are using the Shareware
- version and you are encouraged to register.
-
- Free distribution of software and voluntary payment for its use eliminates
- costs of advertising and copy protection schemes. Users obtain quality
- software at greatly reduced costs. They can try it out before buying, and
- do so at their own pace and in the comfort of their own home or office.
- The best programs will survive, based solely on their quality and usefulness.

- GetFile
- Written By Rahul Bhandari
-
-
- Have you experienced the frustration of looking thru all those
- never ending directories for a file which you needed immediately. You
- were sure that its somewhere on that hard drive BUT WHERE in all those
- Directories and subdirectories? And God help you if the file you were
- looking for is a hidden one!
- Well here is a program which will make finding any kind of file
- just a matter of moments no matter if the file is Hidden or buried deep
- down in the dense jungle of directories and subdirectories. All you have
- to know is the drive in which your file might be. Incase you don't remember
- the exact file name -- no problem use wild cards. GetFile will give you
- a list of all the files in all the directories which match your wild cards.
- You think GetFile will tell you -- Hey, this is where your file is now
- get to work and start changing the drive and directories like most other
- programs on the market do. Well GetFile will do more than that. It will
- not only tell you where your file is but will also change the drive and
- directories for the first complete filename that will match the one you
- have supplied and that too just in moments! In case of wildcards it'll
- give you the list of the files as mentioned above.
- Do you think GetFile will be tough to work with? You can answer
- this yourself after using it just once. Here are some of the commands:
-
- GetFile [Drive:FileName] and Press <<ENTER>>
-
- And belive it or not this is it! you don't have to give it any directories
- just the drive and the file name. For filename you may use wild cards.
- And what more, GetFile also works with networks.
- If anytime you get stuck just type in "GetFile /H" and a help screen
- will appear.
- Pretty Nifty UH!
