  The CATALOG option is used to manage your OffLoad catalogs. Catalogs are
  used to keep track of the files which you have archived. The CATALOG menu
  option is used to activate a catalog to work on, save changes to a 
  catalog, backup a catalog, delete a catalog and restore a damaged 
  catalog. It also contains the option to exit OffLoad and go back to DOS.

  The various CATALOG options are discussed below:


    Activate an        OffLoad works on one catalog at a time. You tell
    OffLoad Catalog    it which catalog to work on by activating a catalog.
                       Any files which you archive while a catalog is active
                       are added to that catalog.

    Activate an       To activate a catalog, select the CATALOG menu item
    OffLoad Catalog   by pressing ENTER when the highlight bar is on the
      (Cont'd)        menu option. Press ENTER again while the highlight bar
                      is on the ACTIVATE CATALOG option. A window will pop
                      up asking for the name of the catalog to activate.
                      Type in a catalog name or press ENTER, followed by
                      insert (INS) to see a list of catalogs.

    Save Current      When you make changes to a OffLoad catalog such as
    Catalog           assigning keywords to archived files, editing the 
                      catalog description, etc., the changes are made only
                      to the in-memory version of the catalog. Use this 
                      option to have these changes reflected permanently
                      on the hard-disk copy of the catalog.

    Catalog (Cont'd)  your changes, you will be prompted to see if you want
                      them saved.

    Backup Catalog    OffLoad maintains a "fail-safe" copy of each catalog
                      on the last diskette of each catalog's archive set.
                      Whenever you archive files to a catalog, OffLoad 
                      writes out an updated catalog. If you make changes
                      such as assigning keywords, etc. without archiving
                      any files, these changes will not be reflected in the
                      "fail-safe" backup unless you explicitly request
                      OffLoad to backup the catalog changes.

    Backup Catalog    To update your "fail-safe" backup, select this option
        (Cont'd)      and press ENTER. OffLoad will prompt you to insert 
                      the last diskette in the archive set and will then
                      write out a copy of the current catalog.

    Restore Catalog   The "fail-safe" backup of an OffLoad catalog described
                      above can be used to restore a damaged or lost
                      hard-disk catalog. To accomplish this, activate the
                      catalog you want to restore, select the RESTORE 
                      CATALOG option and press ENTER. OffLoad will prompt
                      you to insert the last diskette in the archive set
                      and will then replace your hard-disk catalog (if any)
                      with the fail-safe backup catalog.

    Delete Catalog    Occasionally, you may want to get rid of one or more
                      OffLoad hard-disk catalogs when the files archived in
                      them no longer serve any useful purpose. You also
                      might want to do this when you feel you no longer need
                      to maintain an active catalog on the hard-disk but
                      intend to keep the archive diskettes. To do so, select
                      the DELETE CATALOG option and press ENTER.
 
                      OffLoad will prompt to be sure you meant to delete it
                      before doing so. If you keep the archive diskettes,
                      you could restore the hard disk catalog with the 
                      RESTORE CATALOG option at a later date.

                      which have not been saved, OffLoad will prompt to
                      see if you want the changes saved.

                      You can exit OffLoad at any time by pressing the
                      ALT-F10 key combination. You do not need to exit
                      via the QUIT OFFLOAD option.

                       ACTIVATE A CATALOG

  OffLoad works on one catalog at a time. The catalog it is working    on is called the "active" catalog. You choose which catalog you
  want to work on and "activate" it using this menu option.

  To activate a catalog, press ENTER and you will be prompted for
  the name of the catalog to activate. Either type in the catalog
  name or press your insert (INS) key to choose from a list of
  already defined catalogs.

  To create a new catalog, simply type in it's name. OffLoad will
  automatically create it for you.

  Note that when a catalog is activated, it's name and some basic
  statistics about the catalog display on line 3 of your screen.HF@
                        SAVE CURRENT CATALOG

  OffLoad maintains a series of files on your hard disk for each
  OffLoad catalog which document the contents of the catalog. These
  files are collectively called a hard-disk catalog. Whenever you
  archive files to a catalog, the hard-disk catalog is automatically
  updated to reflect the additions. 

  Certain changes to the catalog (editing keywords, editing the 
  catalog description, etc.) are not automatically reflected in the
  hard disk catalog unless you explicitly save the changes. Select
  this option and press ENTER to save any changes you have made to 
  the catalog.

  If you have made any changes to your catalog and attempt to exit
  OffLoad without saving them, you will be prompted by OffLoad to
  save the changes. Simply answer yes and they will be saved. B!PNî

                     QUIT OFFLOAD

  When you are finished with OffLoad, you have two
  ways you can quit and exit to DOS. You can either
  select this option and press ENTER, or simply press
  your F10 key while holding down the ALT key
  (ALT-F10).

  If you have made any changes to the active catalog
  which have not been saved, OffLoad will ask if you
  want to save the changes.C*OM

                               UPDATE OPTION

  The Update menu option provides facilities for archiving files, assigning
  keywords to files which have previously been archived, updating the 
  description of the catalog and making temporary changes to some of 
  OffLoad's configuration options. The individual UPDATE menu options are
  discussed below:
           
    Archive Files      This option lets you use OffLoad's "point-and-shoot"
      (Manual)         interface to identify hard disk files to be archive
                       to the active OffLoad catalog. You peruse a directory
                       tree, marking files for archival, and when you have
                       marked all of the files to be archived, OffLoad
                       copies or moves them to the appropriate archive
                       diskettes. Press your help (F1) key while your
                       highlight bar is on this option for more information.                                                                 Page 1 of 4

                           UPDATE OPTION (Cont'd)

    Archive Files      This option provides automated archival of files
      by Date          after they have remained unmodified for a specified
                       period of time. You activate this option one
                       hard-disk directory at a time and can very easily
                       control which files qualify for automated archival.

                       It is a very simple and convenient method for 
                       moving old files into an archive without having
                       to identify it manually.

    Update File        Searching for files which have been archived can be
     Keywords          greatly simplified if you take the time to assign
                       keyword(s) to some or all archived files.

     Keywords          you organize the contents of your archive catalogs.
     (Cont'd)          You can assign keywords at any time after a file has
                       been added to an archive.

                       Press your help (F1) key while your highlight bar is
                       on the UPDATE FILE KEYWORDS option for more
                       information.

    Configuration      Certain Offload configuration options can be 
                       temporarily over-ridden while running OffLoad.
                       Changes made to the configuration via this option
                       remain valid only until you either change them 
                       again or exit OffLoad.

  this list before starting the archive process.

  If you want to remove a file from the list, move the highlight bar to the
  file name and press the DEL key. If you want to remove a group of files,
  mark each file by moving the highlight bar to the desired file and pressing
  the F5 (mark) key. After you have marked all of the files, press the DEL
  key.

  If you are unsure about the contents of a file, move the highlight bar to
  the file name and press the F2 (browse) key. 

  After you have reviewed the list and are sure you want to archive all of
  the files in the list, press the F10 (continue) key. OffLoad will prompt
  you to insert the appropriate disk and will begin archiving the files.KI╦
                          RESTORING A CATALOG

  OffLoad maintains a fail-safe backup of your catalog(s) on the last
  diskette of each catalog's archive media. You can use this backup to
  restore your hard-disk catalog in the event it is lost or damaged.

  To restore the hard disk catalog, select this option and press ENTER.
  OffLoad will prompt you to insert the last diskette in the catalog.
  It will re-create your hard-disk catalog from this fail-safe backup.

  Note that changes made to the hard-disk catalog are reflected in your
  fail-safe backup when you:

     1. Archive additional files to the catalog, or

     2. Explicitly update the fail-safe backup using the BACKUP
        CATALOG option.OM°
                         UPDATE CATALOG DESCRIPTION

  Each OffLoad catalog can have it's own description (up to 40 characters)
  which is displayed on OffLoad reports as well as various OffLoad
  screens.

  You can easily create or modify a catalog's description by activating
  the catalog and then selecting this option. A pop-up window will appear
  showing the existing description, if any. Use your editing keys to make
  any desired modifications and press ENTER.

  After you have made changes to a catalog's description, you should use the
  SAVE CATALOG option to save your changes permanently. You may also want to
  use the BACKUP CATALOG option to update your "fail-safe" catalog backup
  on your archive media with the new catalog description.

  As the size of your OffLoad catalogs grow, so does the job of locating 
  files in the catalogs. Fortunately, OffLoad offers three different 
  methods for simplifying the task. You can search any OffLoad catalog using
  one of the following criteria for focusing your search on a subset of the
  catalog's files:

    Search by      You can specify a "DOS-like" file specification (e.g. 
    Filename       *.LTR, TS*.*, etc.) and OffLoad will display only
                   the files in the catalog which match that specification. 

    Search by      You can assign keyword(s) to any file in an OffLoad
    Keyword        catalog. Keywords help to group related files in the
                   catalog. You can search for file(s) which have been 
                   assigned one or more keywords that you specify.

    Search by      If you know approximately when you archived the file or
    Archive Date   files you are trying to locate, you can search for files
                   archived on a specific date or during a date range.     
                   OffLoad will then display only those files which were
                   archived during the specified time period.

  When you have located the file or files you are looking for, you have two
  options available to you. You can print a hardcopy report of the search
  results. Your print (F8) key initiates this. You can also mark one or
  more files and restore them to your hard disk. Your mark (F5) key is used
  to mark (and unmark) files and your restore (F6) key initiates the actual
  file restore process.

     WHERE DO YOU WANT THIS REPORT PRINTED?

  You can have OffLoad print this report 
  directly to your printer or to a file on
  your PC. 

  If you select DISK FILE, you will be
  prompted for a file name. 

  If you select PRINTER, the report will go to
  the printer port specified in the

                        CATALOG NAME

  You are being asked to select/specify the catalog that you
  want OffLoad to activate. You have four choices:

     1. You can type in the name of an existing OffLoad
        catalog;

     2. You can type in the name of a new catalog that you
        want to create;

     3. You can press ENTER without typing in anything to
        activate the default catalog named OFFLOAD; 

     4. You can press your insert INS key and select from a
        list of existing OffLoad catalogs.

                       BACKUP A CATALOG

  OffLoad maintains a fail-safe backup copy of each catalog on
  the last archive diskette of the catalog. You can use this
  backup copy to re-create your hard-disk catalog in the event
  it is lost. The backup catalog is automatically updated
  every time you add files to the archive.

  If you make changes to the catalog other than adding archive
  files (assign keywords, edit the catalog description, etc.)
  the changes are saved on the hard-disk copy of the catalog
  but not the backup version. If you want to keep your fail-
  safe version completely up to date, choose this option. 
  
  OffLoad will prompt you to insert the last diskette of the
  catalog archive media and will update the fail-safe backup
  copy.üXOMW
                             EDIT FILE KEYWORDS

  Each file in an archive can have up to twenty four (24) characters of 
  keyword information associated with it. This can be either a single
  keyword or a series of keywords, separated by a blank.

  The purpose of assigning keywords to archived files is to simplify 
  locating files at a later date. Most OffLoad users organize related files
  in one OffLoad catalog. Assigning keywords allows a second level of 
  organization.

  OffLoad allows you to search an archive catalog, looking for files which
  have been assigned a specific keyword or a series of keywords in a
  specific order. You might use this, for example, to simplify finding all
  files having to do with a specific project, customer, job activity, etc.

                                                                Page 1 of 2UOM⌐
                         EDIT FILE KEYWORDS (Cont'd)

  Simply assign the appropriate keyword to a file and you can easily locate
  it later by searching for files assigned the specific keyword.

  To assign keyword(s) to a file or edit the keyword assignments already
  made, select the EDIT FILE KEYWORDS option, specify a file specification
  to use to reduce the list of files in the archive (optional), move your
  highlight bar to the desired file name and press ENTER.

  A window will pop up, showing the currently assigned keywords, if any. 
  Use your editing keys to modify the keywords and press ENTER.

  After you have made changes to file keywords, you should use the SAVE
  CATALOG option to save your changes permanently. You may also want to
  use the BACKUP CATALOG option to update your "fail-safe" catalog backup
  on your archive media.

                           CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

  You have the option of temporarily overriding a number of OffLoad's 
  configuration items. Configuration overrides made via this option stay in
  effect only until you exit OffLoad. To make permanent configuration 
  changes, use the OffLoad Configuration program.

  The following configuration items can be overridden via this option:

    Target Drive       The drive letter of the diskette drive to which
                       OffLoad will write the files it archives. When you
                       choose this option, a pop-up window appears where 
                       you can specify the letter of the desired drive and

                       CONFIGURATION OPTIONS (Cont'd)

    Compression Type   Unless instructed otherwise, OffLoad compresses most
                       files as it archives them. It has two different
                       types of compression techniques. One technique
                       focuses on getting the maximum compression of the
                       file (favors size). The other focuses on completing
                       the compression as quickly as possible (favors speed).

                       The technique which favors size generally takes longer
                       to compress files than the one which favors speed. 
                       Therefore, archive operations will usually take longer
                       with the favors size option, but you will be able to
                       fit more files on a single diskette.

                       CONFIGURATION OPTIONS (Cont'd)

    Compression Type   The Compression Type option lets you choose which type
       (Cont'd)        of compression (or no compression at all) you would
                       like OffLoad to use. You can switch compression types
                       within one archive catalog as many times as you wish.


    Delete Archived    Most of the time, you will use OffLoad to "move" files
        Files          from you hard disk to archive media. This means that
                       OffLoad will delete the files from your hard disk 
                       after it has successfully copied them onto archive
                       diskette(s).

    Files (Cont'd)     or more files to an archive and retain them on your
                       hard disk. Use the DELETE ARCHIVED FILES option to 
                       instruct Offload whether or not it should delete
                       the files it archives. If you choose to have the 
                       files deleted automatically, OffLoad still puts up 
                       a prompt every time to be sure that you want to 
                       delete the set of files you just archived.

    Restore Directory  When you restore archived files to you hard disk,
                       OffLoad needs to know where to put them. You have two
                       choices; either you can have Offload always restore
                       files to the directory they resided in when they were
                       archived or you can select a directory each time.

                       CONFIGURATION OPTIONS (Cont'd)

    Restore Directory  The RESTORE DIRECTORY option lets you choose between
        (Cont'd)       always having files restored to their original 
                       directories or always specifying the target
                       directory yourself.

    Directory Sort     When you are viewing lists of files on your hard disk,
                       you can have them presented in one of three sort
                       orders. Use the DIRECTORY SORT option to specify 
                       which order you prefer.

    Inactive Files     You have to option of "inactivating" files in your
                       archive catalogs as they become obsolete. The files
                       remain on the archive media and could be restored to
                       your hard disk, if desired.

    Inactive Files     Generally, you will not want these files to be 
      Cont'd)          included when you display or print the contents of 
                       an archive catalog. Offload lets you choose whether
                       or not you want to see them.

                       Use the INACTIVE FILES configuration option to 
                       instruct OffLoad whether or not to show these files.
                       Most OffLoad users set up their permanent
                       configuration to exclude these files and use this
                       OffLoad option on the rare occasions when they want

                          DELETE A CATALOG

  OffLoad maintains a series of files on your hard disk for each
  OffLoad catalog which document the contents of the catalog. These
  files are collectively called a "hard-disk catalog". 

  Each OffLoad catalog has between one and three files on your hard
  disk associated with it. If you want to permanently delete an
  OffLoad catalog, select this option and press ENTER. You will be
  prompted to be sure that you want to delete it before OffLoad 
  actually deletes the supporting files.

  Note: you should never attempt to rename a catalog by renaming 
  it's supporting files on your hard disk. Each archive diskette
  contains the catalog name and this would get your hard-disk
  catalog out of sync with the archive diskettes.PNm
                            SEARCH BY FILE NAME

  As OffLoad catalogs get larger, it becomes more important to be able to
  search a subset of the catalog when trying to locate an archived file.
  The simplest and most powerful way to do this is to search the catalog
  for a specific file name or a "DOS-like" file specification (e.g. *.TXT).
 
  To begin a file name search, move your highlight bar to the SEARCH BY 
  FILE NAME option and press ENTER. A pop-up window will appear requesting
  a file specification. File specification rules are the same as for DOS;
  an asterisk matches anything and nothing, a question mark matches any
  single character in the file name, etc. 

  Type in your file specification (or nothing if you want to display the
  entire catalog) and press ENTER. OffLoad will display only those files
  who's name matches your file specification.PNX
                          SEARCH BY ARCHIVE DATE

  You can search the active archive catalog for those files archived on a
  specific date or between a range of two dates. OffLoad will then show
  a list of files which were archived during the time period specified.

  To begin the search, move the highlight bar to the SEARCH BY ARCHIVE DATE
  option and press ENTER. A window will pop up asking for the first date
  in the date range (or just a single date). Enter the first date of the 
  date range (or just a single date) in the form MMDDYY where MM is the 
  month number, DD is the day number and YY is the last 2 digits of the
  year. For example 013190 is January 31, 1990.
  
  If you are entering a range of dates, enter the ending date on the next
  pop-up window. If you are searching a single date, just hit enter on the
  second window.  {ÇPN=
                             SEARCH BY KEYWORD

  As you accumulate more and more files in OffLoad archives, the task of 
  locating a specific file or group of files becomes increasingly 
  challenging. 

  One of the most effective techniques for simplifying the task of locating
  files is to assign either keywords or a description to those files which
  have the greatest likelyhood of being needed later on. This not only 
  helps you group related files in an archive, it also serves as a memory
  jogger down the road when you have a hard time remembering what a
  particular file was used for.

  Assuming that you have assigned keywords to some of the files in an
  archive, you can search for those files with the SEARCH BY KEYWORD option.
  
                                                               Page 1 of 3ä&}OM{
                         SEARCH BY KEYWORD (Cont'd)

  To begin a keyword search, move your highlight bar to the SEARCH BY 
  KEYWORD option and press ENTER. A pop-up window will appear where you
  can type in the keyword or keywords to search on. All files in the
  archive who's keyword field contains the text you enter in this window
  will display in the search results display. For example, if you type in
  the keyword search criteria of "SHEET", the table below shows which
  archive entries would match.

                Keyword Field Contents               Matched?
         -------------------------------------    --------------

  For example, if you typed in the search criteria of "pricing data", the 
  table below shows which archive entries would be matched:

  drive until you either:

    1. Change the target drive again (using this option)

    2. Exit OffLoad

  To override the target drive, place your highlight bar

                            RESTORE DIRECTORY

  When you restore archived files back to your hard disk, Offload needs to
  know where to put the files. You can choose from two methods:

    1. You can have OffLoad always restore files to the directory they were
       in when they were archived. If the directory (or directories) no
       longer exist on your hard disk, OffLoad will create them.

    2. You can have OffLoad prompt you for the name of a directory to
       restore the files into. If you choose this option, OffLoad puts a 
       directory tree on your screen (similar to the one used for manual
       archiving) and you simply point to the desired directory.

  files to their original directory. Select YES or NO and press ENTER.

  Your override will remain active until you either change it again using
  this option or exit OffLoad. To change the RESTORE DIRECTORY option 
  permanently, run the OffLoad Configuration program.

  until you exit OffLoad. You have three compression options:

    FAVORS  - This method compresses a file as much as possible before 
    SIZE      copying it to the archive disk. It takes the longest amount of
              time in compression of the three options.

    FAVORS  - This method compresses the file some, but focuses more on 
    SPEED     getting the compression done quickly than on making the file
              as small as possible. 

     NO     - You can also eliminate compression altogether. This is the  
    COMPRESS  fastest method for archiving files but fits the fewest files
              on an archive disk.PNk

            EDITING A CATALOG'S DESCRIPTION

  Each OffLoad catalog can have a description of up to
  forty (40) characters. When you elect to edit the
  active catalog's description, a window pops with the
  existing description and you can then edit it.

  If a description already exists, use your editing
  keys to change the existing description. If not,
  simply type in a description. When you have the
  desired description, press  ENTER.PN

                              FILE SPECIFICATION

  To assign keyword(s) to a file (or edit the keywords which have previously
  been assigned), you view a list of files in the catalog and select files
  for keyword editing. You can reduce the list of files OffLoad displays by
  specifying a "DOS-like" file specification. If you do, only those files 
  whose name matches the file specification will display. 

  File specification rules are the same as for DOS; an asterisk matches
  anything and nothing, a question mark matches any single character in the
  file name, etc.
  
  If you want to display all of the files in the catalog, simple enter no

                            ARCHIVE FILES (MANUAL)

  The manual archiving process is the "point-and-shoot" method of identifying
  and archiving files. It is also useful for combing through a hard disk and
  deleting unneeded files. The manual archive process works as follows:

     1. Specify a drive to scan.

     2. View a directory "tree" of directories on the disk.  

     3. Select directorie(s) to review and view a list of files in each
        directory.

     4. Mark any files you want to archive. Delete any files which are no
        longer needed.

     5. Initiate the archival process.PNI
                           UNCHANGED FILE ARCHIVAL

  OffLoad provides a capability for archiving select groups of files 
  automatically, based on the amount of time that has past since the file(s)
  were last modified. This is based on the date which is maintained by DOS
  when each file was last updated.

  If you have established your unchanged file archival specifications via 
  the OLCONFIG program, you are ready to begin a unchanged file archiving
  run. Press ENTER while the highlight bar is on the ARCHIVE FILES BY DATE
  option and OffLoad will scan your hard disk looking for files which 
  pass the unchanged file archival specifications you made for the active
  catalog.

  If any files are found, they will be displayed on a panel for you to review
  and optionally edit. Press ENTER from that screen to begin archiving.

                             COMPRESSION TYPE
 
  Unless instructed otherwise, OffLoad compresses most files as it archives
  them. It does this to increase the number of files it can fit on a single
  archive diskette. It also automatically decompresses these files when you
  restore them back to the hard disk.

  It has two different types of compression techniques. One technique focuses
  on getting the maximum compression of the file (favors size). The other
  focuses on completing the compression as quickly as possible (favors
  speed).

  The technique which favors size generally takes longer to compress files
  than the one which favors speed. Therefore, archive operations will usually
  take longer with the favors size option, but you will be able to fit more
  files on a single diskette. 
                                                                Page 1 of 29╠OM?
                         COMPRESSION TYPE (Cont'd)
 
  Offload keeps track of which compression technique it used for each file
  it compresses so it can automatically decompress it properly when the 
  file is restored. You can use either compression technique (or no
  compression at all) whenever you want. You can mix compression techniques
  in a single archive catalog.

  To override the compression technique used, place your highlight bar on 
  this option and press ENTER. A pop-up window will appear giving you three
  choices (favors speed, favors size and no compression). Move your
  highlight bar to the desired technique and press ENTER. OffLoad will use
  this compression technique until you either change it again or exit 
  OffLoad.

                          DELETE ARCHIVED FILES

  Most file archiving involves "moving" the file from a hard disk to archive
  media. To accomplish this, the file is copied to the archive and then
  deleted from the hard disk. You can have OffLoad delete the files from
  your hard disk that it archives. If you elect to do so, whenever OffLoad
  completes an archival operation, it pops up a window to make sure that you
  want to delete the files. If you just press ENTER, it will delete the
  files. You can also choose at this point not to have OffLoad delete the
  files.

  This is the normal method of operating OffLoad. If you want, you can have
  Offload leave the files it archives on your hard disk and you can then
  selectively delete them yourself at some later time.

  To override this option, press ENTER and select the desired choice.)'?

                             COMPRESSION OPTIONS

  OffLoad can compress files as it archives them, thereby increasing the
  number of files you can fit on an archive disk. You have three compression
  options:

    FAVORS  - This method compresses a file as much as possible before 
    SIZE      copying it to the archive disk. It takes the longest amount of
              time in compression of the three options.

    FAVORS  - This method compresses the file some, but focuses more on 
    SPEED     getting the compression done quickly than on making the file
              as small as possible. 

     NO     - You can also eliminate compression altogether. This is the  
    COMPRESS  fastest method for archiving files but fits the fewest files
              on an archive disk.:8
                 DELETE ARCHIVED FILES

  When OffLoad archives a file, it can delete it from
  the hard disk. You have two choices in this
  configuration option. You can:

   - have OffLoad ask you every time it archives one
      or more files if you want the file(s) deleted

   - take responsibility for deleting the files
      upon yourself.

  If you specify YES for this configuration option, 
  every time you archive files, OffLoad will ask if
  you want them deleted. Answer YES to that question
  and OffLoad will delete them. @>p
              ALWAYS RESTORE TO ORIGINAL DIRECTORY

  When you restore files which have been archived back to

  You have two choices:

    - You can have OffLoad always restore files to the
      directory they were in at the time they were archived,

    - You can have OffLoad prompt you for a target directory
      every time you restore a file.

  If you have OffLoad always restore to the original 
  directory, it will notify you whenever the directory no
  longer exists and ask if it should create the directory

                           UNCHANGED FILE ARCHIVAL

  OffLoad provides a capability for archiving select groups of files 
  automatically, based on the amount of time that has past since the file(s)
  were last modified. This is based on the date which is maintained by DOS
  when each file was last updated.

  Unchanged file archival specifications are maintained seperately for each
  OffLoad catalog. A catalog need not have unchanged file archival
  specifications. You will establish them only for catalogs for which this
  type of archival is appropriate.

  Unchanged file archival specifications consist of a list of directories on
  the hard disk(s) to be searched, a list of file extensions which are

                 PRINTER DRIVERS

  A printer driver is a file which contains 
  the information OffLoad needs to make your 
  printer work properly. A number of printer 
  drivers are supplied with OffLoad.

  If you need to customize a printer driver to 
  meet the special needs of your printer, select
  this option and fill in the resulting panel 
  with the print codes used by your printer.

  If you are unsure what a print driver is or how
  to specify print codes, refer to the OffLoad

                           DISPLAY SCHEDULE

  The SCHEDULE and ANALYZE utilities provide a method for scheduling
  the archiving of files at some future date. When you schedule a
  file with either of these utilities, an entry is added to the
  OffLoad schedule file containing the file name, catalog and
  schedule date. 

  This option enables you to view the current schedule file and
  modify its contents. You can delete files from the schedule. You
  can also change the target catalog and/or schedule date for any
  file in the schedule.

  To view the schedule file, press ENTER.PNZ
                             SCHEDULED ARCHIVAL

  OffLoad's ANALYZE and SCHEDULE utilities allow you to schedule files to
  be archived on a specific date to a specific catalog. OffLoad maintains
  a master schedule of files to be archived. 

  When you start OffLoad, if there are any scheduled files which are ready
  to be archived, a panel display showing the number of files and catalogs
  ready for archival. 

  To archive these scheduled files, move the highlight bar to the Archive
  Files (Scheduled) option and press ENTER. OffLoad will, in turn,  select
  each group of files (by catalog) and present them for you to review.

  Follow the prompts to insert the appropriate archive disks. If you do not
  want to archive a catalog's files, press ESC when viewing the list of
  files. OffLoad will skip them and go on to the next catalog's files.

                         OFFLOAD SCHEDULE UTILITY

  The SCHEDULE utility provides a convenient method for scheduling files on
  a hard disk to be archived by OffLoad. When you run schedule, it shows
  a list of files in the active hard disk directory. You can use this list 
  to mark individual files or groups of files and schedule them for archiving
  into a specific archive catalog. They can be scheduled to be archived on
  any date, now or sometime in the future. You can also use this list to 
  delete files from the hard disk.

  Every time you run OffLoad, it checks to see if any files have been 
  scheduled to be archived on or before the current date. If so, if displays
  a summary panel showing the number of files which are ready to archive
  and the number of different archive catalogs which will receive files.

                            HARD DISK ANALYSIS TOOL

  ANALYZE is a utility which helps you identify and archive files on a hard
  disk. It is one of three OffLoad components which are designed to simplify
  the process of locating and archiving (or deleting) files which are no 
  longer needed on the hard disk. 

  ANALYZE presents, in alphabetical order, a list of file extensions which
  are found on a hard disk. This display contains the extension names as 
  well as the number of bytes on the hard disk which is take up by files 
  with each extension. Starting with this list, you can select an extension
  and view a list of directories which contain files with the selected
  extension in them. From this list, you can display a list of the individual
  files in each directory and can even display the contents of any individual
  file.

  the capacity and utilization of the hard disk. It shows the capacity of
  the hard disk, the amount of space taken up by files, the number of files
  and directories on the disk and the amount of free space which remains.

  In the window on the right side of the screen is a list of file extensions
  which are found on the disk along with a count of the total munber of
  bytes of storage on the disk take up by files of each extension. 

  This file extension list is the base of operations from which you can 
  review files, delete files and schedule files for archiving. To view a
  list of directories which contain at least one file with a particular file
  extension, move the highlight bar to the extension and press ENTER.
