JMP is a useful utility for anyone who uses a large number of
subdirectories. The format for running the program is as follows:
^CJMP [-s][drive:]<subdirectory>
JMP searches through all of your directories until it finds one that
matches the <subdirectory> parameter you give, and then moves you to that
subdirectory. That name must be a simple filename, not a pathname. If you
specify a drive letter, JMP goes to that drive before attempting to jump to
the new directory. So, instead of typing:
^CA:\>C:
^CC:\>CHDIR \LANGUAGE\BASIC\GAMES
You can just say:
^CJMP C:GAMES
However, in some cases there may be more than one occurrence of a
subdirectory name or you may only remember that the subdirectory name
begins with a "T". JMP provides the "-s" commandline switch which tells
the program to search the entire hard drive for all matching occurrences
of the subdirectory name. You can use either of the standard DOS wildcard
characters ("*" or "?") when specifying the subdirectory name.
For example:
^CJMP -s T*
might produce the following list of subdirectories to select from:
Select Subdirectory . . .
1) C:\PCW\TEXT
2) C:\TC\EXAMPLES\TCACL
3) C:\TC\TOUR
4) C:\TP\TURBO3
5) C:\TASM
6) C:\TD
7) C:\TP
8) C:\TPROF
9) C:\TC
10) Abort
Your Choice?
Select the subdirectory to "jump" to by entering the number associated with
that subdirectory and press <ENTER>.
To run this program outside the ^1Big Blue Disk^0 menu, type: ^1JMP^0.
