GET A GOOD DOS SHELL PROGRAM
The absolute best SHELL program that I have come
across is the earlier version of DIRECTORY MASTER. I
can flip files all over the place in record time, and
you need to do that when manipulating bbs
directories. Function keys can also be set to help
you carry out routine operations such as ziping files
or adding comment files. I could not live without my
DM. Norton Commander is nice - but it is way too
complicated for the quick operations needed in
running a bbs. Along with DM you need to include the
SLED text editor program in your path somewhere. SLED
is the simplest, most versatile t-editor I know of.
You can not only edit text but copy and move text
around in the document and the right margin is not
restricted as in some editors. So if you are making a
document that has codes that go beyond the 80
character mark it will stay on the same line rather
than be shot down to the next line!
Both Directory Master and SLED are available on my
bbs: call modem 804-625-0728. (D_MAST.ZIP contains
SLED)
