QFLIST (v1.1) by Jamestown Software REGISTRATION ($15.00)
(Abstracted from the program documentation)...
QFLIST is a file browse utility modeled after the excellent
user-supported LIST.COM program by Vernon D. Buerg, (456 Lakeshire,
Daly City, CA 94015). However, QFLIST supports only a subset of the
many options offered by LIST and is intended primarily for use with
QFILER (a popular DOS file manager) and QFMENU (a menu system), both
by Jamestown Software.
QFLIST may also be run as a stand-alone utility and allows you to
select the file you wish to view from a sorted list of available files
-- including the ability to change drives and directories from within
QFLIST.
USAGE: QFLIST [drive:][path][filename]
QFLIST is used to view or browse the contents of a file, allowing for
scrolling and positioning within the file. To use QFLIST, just type
the command QFLIST at the DOS prompt, followed by the name of the file
you wish to see. For example:
- - -
You may rename QFLIST to any convenient name, such as V.EXE, READ.EXE
or LIST.EXE. If you are using a QFILER version 3.1HD or older, you
must rename QFLIST.EXE to LIST.EXE for QFILER to be able to recognize
the program and link to it.
- - -
QFLIST may be used to view both text files and binary files. Text
files are those which contain text (such as this QFLIST.DOC file) and
not binary or control codes. Text characters usually range from a
value of 32 through 127. Binary files, such as those with the
extension .COM and .EXE, have characters ranging from 0 through 255
and may be viewed conveniently by pressing alt-H, the hex dump display
command.
