OVERVIEW
LK4 (Look For) is a simple program that was written to solve
the problem of locating specific files on a crowded hard disk
when given only a partial string. In addition to finding files
quickly LK4 (Look For) will also identify duplicate filenames on
the selected drives. You have the options of deleting specific
files, viewing them with either a text viewer or a hex viewer and
changing to the directory containing a specific file.
ABOUT LK4.EXE
LK4.EXE is a quick and easy to use file finder and duplicate file
locator. It will scan a single hard drive or across multiple
drives. If you enter
LK4 <return>
LK4 will scan ALL drives for all files with the same name. You
may specify a drive or drives by using a '/' followed by the
drive list. For example:
LK4 /cde <return>
will scan drives C D and E and report the duplicates.
LK4 <str> <return>
will scan ALL hard drives on the system for any filename
containing <str> and display the matches on the screen.
LK4 <str> /ddd <return>
will scan the hard disk list <ddd> for all filenames containing
the string <str> and display the matches.
LK4 /? <return>
will display the command syntax.

After scanning the drives, LK4 will present a screen with the
filenames listed in sorted order. Use the cursor keys to scroll
through the list. The function keys will allow you to perform
several operations on the displayed files.
F1 -- Display a help screen
F2 -- View a text file. LK4 will read approximately 10K
of the highlighted file and display it in a scrollable
window. Use the cursor keys or mouse to browse the
file.
F3 -- View a file in hex mode. Similar to the text view
window but all information is displayed in hex.
F5 -- Delete File. LK4 will confirm that you want to
delete the highlighted file and, if confirmed, the file
will be deleted and the window updated to show
remaining duplicate files.
F6 -- Tag File. For multiple delete operations you may
tag and untag a file by pressing the spacebar of the
F6 key. An '*' will be displayed by the tagged file.
F7 -- Delete tagged files. LK4 will confirm that you
want to delete ALL the tagged files and, if confirmed,
will delete them from the disk and update the window.
F9 -- EXIT program. ESC may be used also.
RET -- Change to the directory of the highlighted file.
