- GO.DOC Documentation for using GO
- GO.HST Revision list
- REGISTER Registration form
-
- This program is distributed as shareware. This means you have the oppor-
- tunity to use and evaluate it before you decide to buy. If you find that you
- use it for other than evaluation purposes, then you are obligated to register
- the program. Registration is $20.00 and entitles you to one free update and
- information on further updates as they occur. Please support the shareware
- concept, I've spent a good deal of time developing and enhancing this program
- - your support will help me to continue to help you.
-
- Included with this release is a simple registration form covering both single
- user and site licenses.
-
- This program performs the following seven functions:
-
- - Change file attributes (on single or class of files)
-
- - Read attributes of files and/or directories
-
- - Search for specified files regardless of which hard drive they
- reside on (file extensions are not required if = .*). System will
- also find files which are hidden. RAM and network disks are also
- supported. The program will allow you to switch to the directory of
- the desired file should you so desire.
-
- - Create new directories and move to them
-
- - Rename directories
-
- - Move files around your hard disk without having to delete them
- afterwards. Very fast because no actual disk movement occurs.
-
- - Move files between hard disks (eliminates the next step of deleting
- files after the move).
-
- - Remove directories that still contain files and/or sub-directories.
- This function will remove all files and/or sub-directories and them
- remove the main file itself. It performs the same function as
- UNIXs' rm -r command.
-
- The benefit of this program is that you do not need to remember seven
- different program names in order to perform any of these functions. Using
- this program alone will generally save at least 75K when compared to sep-
- arate programs performing the same functions.
-
- This program contains any and all information necessary to operate it
- efficiently. Simply type GO and the program will display its complete syntax
- and all switches. For examples, review the GO.DOC file.
-
- We would recommend putting this file into either your root directory or your
- /dos (or whatever you call your directory with your dos/operating system
- programs) directory and ensure that you have set a path to it. That way you
- can call up the program from anywhere on your system without having to
- specify a path. An example of setting a path is:
-
- SET PATH = C:\DOS
-
- Specifying the drive ensures that you will be able to access this directory
- should you have more than one hard drive and not be on the drive containing
- the file and directory. Place you SET PATH command into your autoexec.bat
- file thus ensuring proper setting upon system startup.
-
- This program will run on all IBM PC or compatible machines using an 8086,
- 80286, 80386, or 80486 processors. It requires at least a CGA color monitor.
-
- We welcome all comments and suggestions from all users and hope that these
- utilities meet your needs/requirements. To register your copy, please send
- $20.00 in check or money order to:
