floppy disks (drives A: and B:) in which case you answer 'F' or all databases ì
(ie floppy disk and hard drive) in which case you answer 'A'.
You are being asked to enter the mask (or program) to be used to compress ì
your files (including any switches to be used).

Examples might be:-

C:\ARCHIVE\PKZIP

C:\ARCHIVE\ARJ a

Note with ARJ the switch 'a' must appear after the program name to tell it ì
that you want to add to an archive file.
You are being asked to enter the mask (or program) to use to de-compress your ì
database files.

Examples might be:-

     C:\ARCHIVE\PKUNZIP
or   C:\ARCHIVE\ARJ e

Note: For the latter example with ARJ you must have the 'e' switch after the ì
progarm name to indicate that you want to extract from a file.
You have completed the 'General Program Configuration' and are being asked if ì
you want to save any changes.

If you answer (Y)es then any changes you have made will be permanent and will ì
be effective when next you run CATFILES.

If you answer (N)o then any changes you have made will only be temporary that ì
is they will be effective for this session of CATFILES only and when next you ì
run CATFILES it will revert back to your old settings.
CATFILES is asking if you have a colour monitor attached.ì

If you answer (Y)es then you CATFILES will run using ì
colours.  You can set the colours of your choice from the ì
configuration sub-menu.

If you are using a monochrome monitor which supports grey ì
scales you might prefer to answer (Y)es to this and then ì
set some 'colours' which show up well on a grey scales ì
screen.
 
The program is now asking if you have a printer attached to this computer.
 
You have said that you have a printer attached ì
to this computer.  The current ì
printer port is shown and the program is asking ì
if you want to change it.
 
The program is showing the format in which dates will be displayed by the ì
program.  If you would prefer to use another date format answer (Y)es to this ì
question and you will be shown a list of available formats from which to ì
choose.
 
You are being asked if you want to delete the index files ì
each time you are finished with a DataBase File.

If you say (Y)es to this it will save you disk space, but ì
will slow things down when you load the program and when ì
you change DataBases as the Index files have to be ì
created each time.
 
The program occassionaly 'beeps' to give you a warning or to indicate an ì
error.  If you want to suppress these and make the program totally silent ì
then answer (Y)es to this question.
 
The program is asking if you intend to catalogue CompuServe type listings, ì
and if so do you want to use it in conjunction with an Off-Line reader (OLR) ì
such as Tapcis and OzCis.

If you answer (Y)es then you will be allowed to select from the supported ì
OLRs.

The support offered by CATFILES for these OLRs is preparing DownLoad scripts ì
for your selected files and, where appropriate, updating the DataBase from ì
the a DownLoad log file.
The program is showing the currently selected OLR program and is asking if ì
you want to change it.
CATFILES is asking if you want to compress your database ì
files when not actually in use.

If you answer (Y)es then you will be asked for details of ì
the program you want use for compressing and ì
de-compressing the files (eg PKZIP and PKUNZIP).

Compressing the files has the advantage of saving disk ì
space, but the disadvantage that the files need to ì
de-compressed before you can use the database and then, ì
if the database has been changed, compressed when ì
finished.
The version of OZCIS you have selected will allow you ì
to run another catalogue manager (such as CATFILES) ì
instead of the internal OZCIS catalogue manager.

CATFILES has inspected your OZCIS.INI file and found ì
that CATFILES is not currently specified as the ì
catalogue manager.  If you answer (Y)es to this ì
question then CATFILES will take a back-up copy of your ì
existing OZCIS.INI file and then modify OZCIS.INI so ì
that CATFILES can be called from within OZCIS.
CATFILES is asking if you want to search your hard disk to see if you have an ì
already prepared CATFILES database.

If you answer (Y)es CATFILES will search your default drive and then the ì
drive that the CATFILES program is on (if different).

If it can't find any databases after this it will ask you if you want to ì
search another drive.
 

You are now being asked to enter the Directory which will be your default ì
start-up directory.
You have said that you want to use CATFILES with an ì
Off-Line reader for CompuServe and the program now wants ì
you to enter the directory in which your OLR ì
software resides.
  'General Program Configuration'.  If you select this item then ì
you will be allowed to change such things as if you want to use colour, your ì
preferred date format, the DataBase in use when you start the program etc.

 
  'BBS Specific Configuration'.  If you select this item you will ì
be allowed to change the default details specifically related to the DataBase ì
in use such as the name and the format of input files etc.

 
  'Set Preferred Screen Colours'.  If ì
you select this item you will be allowed to change ì
the colour schemes of the various screens.

 
  'Advanced Program Configuration'.  If you select this option ì
you will be taken to a number of screens where you can change the way ì
CATFILES works.

 
  'Quit to Main Menu'.  If you select this or hit 'Esc' you will ì
be returned to the Main Menu.
You have completed the 'Advanced Configuration Options' and ì
you are being asked if you want to save any changes.

If you answer (Y)es then these will be your ì
permanent defaults every time you run CATFILES.

If you answer (N)o then any changes you have made will ì
only be temporary, that is effective for this ì
session of CATFILES only.  The next time you run CATFILES ì
it will revert back to the old settings.
You have hit 'F5' to go to a specific file in the list.  Please enter any ì
number between 1 and the number of files in the current 'Pick List' to be ì
taken straight to that file or hit 'Esc' to return to the previous file.
You are being asked if you want to search any ì
Sub-Directories of the path you specified for ì
downloaded files.  If you answer (N)o only the ì
specified directory will be searched.  If you ì
answer (Y)es then that that directory and any ì
Sub-Directories of it will also be searched.
You have selected to scan for Downloaded files and the program is asking for ì
the Drive and directory to start the search.  After you enter the path you ì
will be asked if you also want to search the Sub-Directories of this path, so ì
if you want to search the whole of Drive C: then you should enter 'C:\' here ì
and then say (Y)es to searching the Sub_directories.

If you hit 'Esc' now the search will be cancelled and you will return to the ì
previous menu.
 
The Item currently Highlighted is 'Add Files to the DataBase'.  If you select ì
this item you will be allowed to read in file details from a suitable file.

 
 
The Item currently Highlighted is 'Reconcile the Files in the DataBase'.

This is a special function which allows you to update your DataBase from a ì
FULL listing of your BBS so that any files or areas no longer on the BBS can ì
be removed from the DataBase.  It performs the process in three stages.

The first stage is to to set a flag for all the files currently in the  ì
DataBase.  Files which are flagged as DownLoaded, in areas which have been ì
set by you to be excluded from the reconciliation process, or in areas which ì
you have said you don't want to keep files will be marked to be kept anyway. 
The second stage is similar to the normal 'Add Files to the Database' where ì
the input file is read and any new files, or areas are added and all files ì
found in the input file are flagged.

The last stage is to delete any files not flagged from the DataBase.  Before ì
proceding with this stage you are offered the opportunity to view each file ì
to be deleted and deciding manually if you want them deleted.

Note: If you haven't already done so, it is recommended that you select the
      'Configure File Areas' option from this menu to set which areas you
      want to include in the reconcilliation process - Also make sure that
      the file you read in is really the most up to date listing not an old
      one!.

 
 
The Item currently Highlighted is the 'Scan for Downloaded Files'.  If you ì
select this item you can scan a drive or directory looking for files which ì
appear to be the same as in the DataBase.  If any are found you will be given ì
brief details of the file found and the file on the DataBase and be asked if ì
they are the same.  If you say (Y)es then the file on the DataBase will be ì
flagged as DownLoaded.

#_INCLUDE_4#
 
The Item currently Highlighted is 'Configure File Areas'.  If you select this ì
item you will be able to add your own File Areas, Delete existing ones, ì
decide if areas are to be included in the reconciliation process etc.

 
 
The Item currently Highlighted is 'Tidy up the DataBase'. 

The program gives each File and Area a unique ID number, when a new file or ì
area is found it is given the next number in sequence.  The maximum number of ì
files is 65,500 and areas is 3,999. This means that if your DataBase has, say ì
65,400 files then the next number is 65401. If you then delete 65,000 files ì
the next available number is STILL 65,401 and you can only add another 100 ì
files even though there are only 400 files in the DataBase.  The 'Tidy up the ì
DataBase' option will take care of this by renumbering all the files.

 
 
The Item currently highlighted is 'Recreate the Index Files".

Normally you should not need to use this option as the program will ì
automatically keep these up-to-date, however if the computer or the ì
program 'crashes' these may become corrupt.

If you find you are getting 'funny' results from the program you could try ì
this option.  An alternative to this is to delete the index files from ì
outside the program and they will automatically be recreated when you next ì
use this DataBase.

 
 
The Item currently Highlighted is 'Quit to Main Menu'.  If you select this or ì
hit the 'Esc' you will be returned to the Main Menu.
You are being shown a list of ì
the currently supported OLRs ì
for CompuServe. 

You may use the cursor key to ì
move up and down the list to ì
highlight the one you want - ì
then press 'Enter' to select ì
it. + first ì
drive to start searching from ì
 ,
 + last drive to search to  ,

 %
Please enter the path (directory) where you want the output file to appear.  ì
Enter ONLY the path (you will be asked for the file name later).
Enter the file name you want to use to contain the output.  If you enter a ì
name without a file extension the extension .PRN will be added for the ASCII ì
files and .CIF for CATFILES Interchange Format.
The program wants to know if you want to view each new file as it is found in ì
the input file.

If you say (Y)es then you will be shown the details of each new file as it is ì
found and be offered the choice of adding it to the DataBase.

If you choose to add the file to the DataBase then you will also be asked if ì
you want to mark the file for future DownLoading.

If you say (N)o then all new files found will be added to the DataBase.
You have chosen to add new files to the DataBase from an ì
input file.

At this point you may:-

  a) Type in the name of a valid input file.
  b) Hit 'F4' to change the Directory you want to read
     from.
  c) Hit 'F9' to show a list of files in the current
     Directory from which you may choose.
  d) Hit 'Esc' to cancel and return to the previous menu.

     Directory from which you may choose.
  d) Hit 'Esc' to cancel the Reconciliation and
     return to the previous menu.
You have created a new ì
DataBase file and the ì
program is asking you to ì
select what type of file ì
listings this DataBase ì
will hold.

Use the Up and Down keys ì
to highlight your choice ì
and press 'Enter' to ì
select it.
You have said that yo want to delete this File Area/Library and the program ì
is asking for confirmation.  If you say (Y)es then all files that are ì
contained in this area will also be deleted.  Also if you subsequently read ì
in an input file which has this area in it then the area will be added to the ì
DataBase again.
You have hit the 'delete' key on a higlighted file and CATFILES want to know ì
if you really want to delete this saved Pick List.
The program has sucessfully read the whole of the input file and now wants to ì
know if you want to delete it.
   For example if you press 'B' you will immediately be allowed ì
to change the Database in Use.

The Item currently Highlighted is Make or Edit a Pick List.  If you select ì
this you will take to a Sub-Menu which will allow you to choose files from ì
the DataBase using various criterea (eg by Name, Date, Word in the ì
description etc).

Once you have created a 'Pick List' you can view the files in the list or ì
'Action' the list which will allow you to print the files, delete them etc.

 
   For example if you press 'B' you will immediately be allowed ì
to change the DataBase in use.

The Item currently Highlighted is 'Action the Pick List'.  If you select this ì
item you will be allowed manipulate the files currently in the Pick List eg ì
Delete them from the DataBase, Print them, Move them to another Area/Library ì
etc.

#_INCLUDE_2#

The Item currently Highlighted is 'Update the Files DataBase'.  If you select ì
this item you will be taken to a Sub-Menu which will allow you to Add Files ì
to the DataBase, Add Libraries/Files Areas, Set Options for the ì
Libraries/File Areas etc.

 
   For example if you press 'P' you will immediately go to the ì
Sub-Menu to allow you to Make or Edit a Pick List.

The Item currently Highlighted is 'Use Another BBS Listing'.  If you select ì
this you will be asked for a path to your other BBS files.  If this path does ì
not exist you will be asked if you want to create it.  Also if no BBS files ì
exist in this directory an 'Empty' DataBase will be created.

 
   For example if you press 'B' you will immediately be allowed ì
to change the DataBase in use.

The Item currently Highlighted is 'Configure Program/DataBase'.  If you ì
select this you will be taken to a Sub-Menu which will allow you to:

        Change the Program Configuration (Start Up Directory, Date Format)
        Change the BBS Specific Options (Title etc)
        Change the Screen Colours

 
   For example if you press 'P' you will be taken straight to the ì
Pick List Menu.

The Item currently highlighted is 'View All Files in Default Areas'.  If you ì
select this item you will be taken to the Pick List Menu, a pick list will be ì
made of all the files in the currently selected areas, (or all areas if none ì
are selected) and then you will go straight into the 'Scan' Mode.

 
   For example if you press 'B' you will immediately be allowed ì
to change the DataBase in use.

The option currently being asked is if you want to automatically add to the ì
database if your input file has changed.

If you answer (Y)es then every time you start CATFILES, or use a new database ì
the CATFILES will check to see if the default input file for this database ì
has changed, and if so, start reading it in.
 "
 #

The item being requested here is if, during an automatic add, you want alwaysì
to be asked if you want to view the files as they are added, delete the ì
input file when done, or reduce the input file to zero bytes when done.

 &  (See the help on prompts for more details).

If you answer (Y)es to this option then everytime you start CATFILES, or use ì
another database then CATFILES will automatically scan the drive, or ì
directory specified for that database looking for possible downloaded files.
 "
 &

If you answer (Y)es to this question then whenever CATFILES carries out an ì
automatic scan for downloaded files it will always ask you the drive or ì
directory to scan and if you want to scan any sub-directories as well.

 &

If you answer (Y)es to this option then, during a manual scan for downloaded ì
files, CATFILES will always ask for the drive or directory and if you want to ì
scan any sub-directories.

 '
 "
 &

The item currently being asked for is if you want to use only the file name ì
when checking to see if a file found on the disk is the same as one in the ì
database.

If you answer (N)o to this option then CATFILES will check to see if the file ì
name is the same AND that the file size is about right (within 2K).  This ì

This is a very specific version of Format 001 and assumes that each file ì
entry is no more that 2 lines long.  The format of the file entries is as ì
follows :-

    Line 1 bits  1-12 the file name
      ""   bits 13-21 the file size
      ""   bits 25-32 the date
      ""   bits 36-   the first part of the description
    Line 2 bits 36-   the second part of the description

This can be usually be used for the two line listings normally found on ì
Wildcat Boards and will process them about 30% faster than a type 001 format
- but is less forgiving of slight variations of format.

Please refer to the user manual for full details of the file formats.
This is the Advanced Program Configuration screen.
This page deals with how you want to handle adding files to the Database ì
from your input file (the file you specified during the Database ì
configuration as containing your NEW files).

Note: The answers here apply to ALL databases but the responses can be
      different for each.If you answer (N)o here CATFILES will remember what you did the last time ì
for this database and do the same (if CATFILES hasn't already stored the ì
responses then it will ask them once - then repeat them).

Note: Since the responses are stored with the database, then they can be
      different for each database, so in one database you can have View the
      files as they are added and delete the input file and in another you
      can have don't view the files as they are added, don't deleted the
      input file when done but reduce it to zero bytes.

      Also it stores a different set of responses for a manual and an 
      automatic read.This page will allow you to select which menu to go to when you start ì
CATFILES and when you change databases.  You can have different start menus ì
if the database does or does not contain files.This page deals with scanning a drive or path for downloaded files.

Note: the answers here apply to all database but the responses can be
      different for each.If you answer (N)o then CATFILES will remember what your choices where the ì
last time and repeat it (If CATFILES hasn't already stored your responses ì
then it will ask once then repeat thereafter).
You may now type two lines of notes, each of 60 ì
characters which will be attached as a note to this ì
file.
This page is showing you the default prompts (for the current database) to ì
be used for the automatic and manual reading of input files.

What you enter here will be what is done during an un-prompted input, or ì
offered as the default during a prompted input.
CATFILES is now asking if you want to check another drive.

You may now hit:-

    'Y' or 'Enter' to check another drive
 or 'N' or 'Esc' to proceed.
CATFILES is asking for thewhen preparing the list of directories which contain databases.
Since this is a normal BBS file listing then one option which will be ì
available to you is toSince this is a normal BBS listing then every time you use this Database ì
CATFILES will look for a special file which contains a list of files which ì
have been dowloaded and update the Database from this file.
