ThunderFind v2.15 - The Ultimate File Finder!
Written By Josh Reznick - Copyright 1991 Digital Skyline
______________________________________________________________________________
[INTRO] This is the third release version of ThunderFind, and this one
has the most improvements of all. I now think it is the slickest
file finder around. It now includes many options and features that
you won't see in any other file finder. These things include: It's
own menu enviornment, options to delete or move to another directory,
searches all available hard disks C:-Z:, Output found file lists to
screen, file, or printer, plus many more great handy features.
_______________________________________________________________________________
[USAGE] ThunderFind is very simple to use, and it's own menu enviornment makes
it even easier. There are no command line switches to remember. There
are even no menu commands to remember. Almost everything in the
program is arrow-key selectable. The main menu consists of the
following choices:
Find Files! - This is the command to initiate the search for the file
or files that you are looking for. Use this command
after you have selected the Filesearch Specs, and
anything else you wish to use (delete/move toggle, etc.)
Set Filesearch Specs - This command allows you to enter the filespec
that you are looking for. (examples: *.doc,
myfiles.*, t*.*, se*.exe, file.txt). You can
also enter the filespec in the command line when
you run the program (ie: "TFIND *.BAK"). The
filesearch spec must be entered either in the
command line, or by using the menu command
before you select Find Files!.
Delete/Move Toggle - This command will allow you to set wether or not
ThunderFind should ask you if you wish to Keep,
Delete, or Move the file. If you select "Yes",
each time ThunderFind finds a file, a window will
pop up with the Keep,Delete,and Move Commands in
it. The Delete/Move toggle defaults to "No".
Output Type Select - This command allows you to select what kind of
output you want the found file list to be sent to.
You can select either Screen, Disk, or Printer.
Screen is the default. Note: the Disk and Printer
options are only available on the registered
version.
Quit To DOS - This command just exits ThunderFind and puts you back in
DOS.
These are all the commands you need to know. Other than that,
everything else is very self-explanatory. There are no extra "hidden"
commands. Also, I suggest that you put ThunderFind in your DOS
directory, so you can do a ThunderFind from within any directory. This
makes the program even easier to use.
