Extended Description:
CHK4DES is a file description management utility for ASCII text files in
either the WildCat! or PCBoard DIR format. CHK4DES can be run on a list
of file descriptions generated from a "diz" extractor, which searches a
directory full of compressed files and creates a description file with the
information from the FILE_ID.DIZ's. However, if the extractor does not
find a diz, it may write a "no description found" phrase where normally
the description would go. CHK4DES goes through this list and removes all
of the "no description" names to another file, which can be dealt with
later. The finished list will contain only file names with descriptions
that can then be added to your bbs file listings. You can change the "no
description" phrase to anything you desire, including an "empty" phrase,
which will locate file names where the description area is blank (nothing
is there). CHK4DES can also execute an optional batch file with the name
of each file that has a description, such as moving the parent file to
your uploads directory. The $5 basic registration plan registers the
distribution version and provides 30 days of technical support. The $10
full plan obtains the latest release, 90 days of tech support, discounts
on future purchases, a collection of several other utility programs with
assorted purposes, and a MISC unit with various functions Turbo Pascal
forgot. CHK4DES runs with DOS 3.0 and above on an IBM compatible PC, and
should also perform in a DOS window with other operating environments.
INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION
If you are interested in translating and supporting CHK4DES in another
language, please contact the author to discuss an exclusive agreement for
your language and country. Foreign distributors in other English speaking
countries are also invited to inquire.
