DDUMP: Dual Dump File Utility
with Limited Editing.
---------------------------------------------
This utility was inspired somewhat by a similar utility
available in the DOS world called CABLE. CABLE was written by David Mit-
chell, an employee of IBM in England, a number of years ago. The utility
was just so well designed and thought out that it became quite a favorite
among those programmers who had a chance to use it. The basic thrust of
CABLE was to permit the user to pull in one or two files for searching,
editing (in ASCII and hex), or simply for comparison.
DDUMP is a similar utility for OS/2 programmers, a utility to permit
one to search for patterns in a file, to make minor editing changes (in
ASCII or in hex), to browse around, or to compare two files. DDUMP will
work at the OS/2 command line or will run in a text window in Presentation
Manager. I may make a "pure" PM version at some time. It is my hope that
the users of DDUMP will find
it as powerful a little tool for their personal toolkits as I found CABLE.

FILES (v 2.xx): A File/Directory Listing Utility
The original version of this program was developed by me for a class that I
was teaching on C programming. Version 1.00 was compiled under Turbo-C.
This version (2.xx) is a bound executable produced with MSC 5.1 that
will work under OS/2 and MS-DOS.
FILES is an intrinsic command in the QNX operating system which I
guessed would be useful in the DOS world. Also usage is straight forward but
if you need help typing FILES ? or FILES -h would produce the following
usage statement:
Usage is: files [start-directory] [options]
where "options" are:
+c - current directory only
+d - list directories only
-s - do not sort listings
+v - verbose listing (include attributes)
p=pattern where pattern can include * and ?
Needless to say, there are many other features which could be added to
this program. Also, the following command doesn't work correctly under DOS:
files \ p=*.c (for example)! I don't have the time to work that one out so
have at it everybody!
OS/2 File System Browser FSB V1.0
There are three Types of Operation;
1. Browse the file system.
2. Peruse a file.
3. Execute an OS/2 command.
To browse the file system:
Put the highlight bar (cursor) in the Directories listing window (left)
using the left arrow key. This is the default window on startup.
Use the home/end/pgup/pgdn keys for traversing directories list.
Examine the list of directories and choose one for inspection by using the
home/end/pgup/pgdn and up/dn arrow keys to move highlight bar cursor.
Highlight a directory for inspection.
As you use the cursor control keys the filename contents of
the current directory is shown on the right in the files list window.
The F2 key prompts you for a word that is used while searching the selected
directory. File names are matched to this word. Most useful when file
system "wild cards" are used.
To peruse a file:
Press the right arrow key to move the cursor to the Files List window.
Examine the list of files by traversing it in the same manner as
the directories. Choose a file for inspection by pressing <RETURN>.
The FSB program will load a File Peruser and the selected file.
Examine the file using the home/end/pgup/pgdn/up/dn arrow keys. The
Peruser is a program called SEE.EXE V1.0, written by the author of FSB.
Note that SEE V1.0 does not support sideways scrolling or other common
functions such as "search" or "hex mode". Maybe a later revision will.
Press the ESC key to exit the File Peruser and return to Browse Mode.
