Bob Stephan has written a really neat little program in GET. I was
especially intriged with the "Moving text option". But, Bob's
documentation left me hangin'! Since I knew it worked, I decided
there must be a way for me to figure it out!
Problem one had to do with the requirement for no CR characters in the
display file. My editer (KEDIT) inserts CRs automatically!
Then I remembered COPY CON !
OK, if I end the COPY CON filename text with a F6 only, I won't have
any CRs in the file.
So I created the attached one line file "c.c". Humm, no go....
Problem two caused me to re-read the DOCs, wherein it said to
repeat the 1st 79 chars. Soooo, I said, why not copy c.c onto
itself!
copy c.c d.d
copy c.c+d.d e.e
You can see the result by executing JIM.BAT, attached. Maybe this
example will help some of you use GET.EXE in a bigger way! You
can see many more examples in the file MASDIR??.ZIP in the tutorial
.BAT files.
You can contact Bob Stephan or myself at the Cricket BBS.
Many thanks to Bob Stephan for GET.ZIP and MASDIRxx.ZIP
