     |9Simple Directory
     |Cby Peter Diotte
     Say goodbye to the days of multi-screen directories flying by untamed. 
     Gone is the need to add a "/w" or "/p" to your DIR command to get it 
     to do what you want.  Simple Directory combines the best features of 
     both switches and provides you with a better command than DIR. 

^C~4|F NOTE TO SUBSCRIBERS ^N

     |9Text File Presenter
     Circumstances beyond our control (the war in the Gulf) prevented the 
     Text File Presenter program from being finished in time for 
     publication. We have not heard from the author since the war started, 
     we hope and pray that he will return unharmed.

     |Cby James Derr
