DirWork V1.01 - Chris Hames 5/2/90. All rights Reserved.
----------------------------------------------------------
DW Size 25100 bytes
Need to get around your directories fast and simply. Well I think
you will find this program of great use. This is the first release so any
ideas/feedback would be appreciated.
What makes DirWork better than the rest?
Fast and Smooth Floppy Dirs! Getting a directory off a floppy
is usually 2 times faster. And your drive doesn't grind back
and forward anywhere near normal.
Size. At less than 25K uncompressed in makes mince meat of most
of those huge memory hungry utils.
A excellent show built in that loads in the next picture while your
looking at the last.
And a simple operation with destination directory display being
optional.
This program is SHAREWARE so please support the work that has gone into it.
The suggested contribution of $15 will get you a disk containing the next
version of this program.
Please send the contribution & any ideas etc to:-

And don't forget to include the version number you have!
PS If any software company is reading this! Want a 18 year old C/Assembler
programmer who is getting bored out of his mind in computer science at
Uni.
