RELEASE NOTES FOR CAT O’ SEVEN TAILS
This is a utility of the 'one dumb job' variety. It does one job, and
does it fast and with minimal hoorah.
Cat o’ Seven Tails is SYSTEM 7 ONLY. Its only interface is Drag and
Drop, so you cannot use it with earlier Systems. If you double-click
on it from a System 6 machine, you will get an error message and the
software will quit gracefully.
To use Cat o’ Seven Tails _with_ System 7, simply select the files
you want to concatenate and drag them on the program's icon or an
alias of it. A new file called "Concatenated files…" will be created,
and your original source files will remain unaltered.
IMPORTANT: Files will be concatenated _in the order selected in the
Finder_. You establish the sequence with the sequence that you click
upon individual files.
In a List view (by Date, Size or Kind), you can click, marquee or
Select All. In ALL cases, you will concatenate in the order you see
in the List view.
In Icon view, you should click each file indvidually, rather than
marqueeing or Selecting All. I haven't found a way of predicting the
order for the latter two.
