QCD - Quick Directory Change
Version 0.81 BETA Copyright (c) 1993 by John Cullen
and
Gutterball Software
WHAT IS QCD???
QCD stands for Quick Change Directory. The purpose of this
program is to make changing the current drive and directory
faster and easier.
FEATURES
1. The current directory can be changed by giving only part of
the full path name. For example, if you have a directory named
C:\UTILITY\ARCHIVER\PKZIP, you can change to that directory by
entering the command: 'QCD PKZIP'.
2. The current drive may be changed with the same command. For
example, your current drive is C: and you wish to change to
D:\123. This can be accomplished by entering the command:
'QCD D:\123', or simply: 'QCD 123'.
3. An alias file may be set up for frequently used directories.
For example, you can add the following line to your ALIAS.QCD
file: DL=C:\QMODEM\DOWNLOAD. You can now change to that
directory by simply entering the command: 'QCD DL'.
USING QCD
The format for the QCD command is: 'QCD pathname [/R]'. Where
pathname is the full pathname, partial pathname or alias you wish
to change to. The '/R' switch creates the DIRTREE.QCD file.
The DIRTREE.QCD file contains a list of every directory on every
drive (from C: to Z:, if available) in your system. This file is
required for QCD to function. You only need to use the '/R'
switch this first time you run QCD, or if you add directories,
delete directories, or change the directory tree. This file is
created in the root directory of drive C:
When QCD executes, it first searches the alias file for an exact
match. If no matches exist or the alias file does not exist, the
program then searches the DIRTREE.QCD file and changes to the
first match it finds. If it cannot find a match in the
DIRTREE.QCD file, the path and drive do not change.
The alias file can be created with any ASCII text editor, such as
DOS 5.0/6.0's EDIT. This file should be in the root directory of
drive C: and it should be named ALIAS.QCD. One line should be
entered for each alias and should be in the following format:
alias=drive:\path, (ex. PARADOX=E:\BORLAND\PARADOX). No check is
made to ensure that the pathname is valid, if an invalid pathname
is given undesired results may occur. The drive letter must be
specified or undesired results may occur.
