It allows a uniform handling of the PC in both Operating Systems. It is possible to define some programs already in use for different jobs. (Editor, Wordprocessing..) Short description of the features : - Available for DOS and OS/2 - Menue is designed for daily usage and simplifies working with different files with single Shortcut Keys. - Menue a small program with 170KB Harddisk usage. - Menue is saving the directory trees on disk. The program reads the tree only if the user wants it. Define your own programs for usage : ------------------------------------- - Editor - File Viewer - File Differences - Word processing Start of big programs with a rest of ca. 3KB of resident memory usage. funktion summary ----------------- - edit - copy - delete - files - complete directories, including subdirectories - view file - execute a dos command - command history - execute a program - wordprocessing - compare files - date and size as critria different files are selected for further operations. (effective update function) - file differences - text search in ASCII an binary files - file display with/without size and attributes - set file date time and attribute - date, time and dos version display - display of actual path, the directory size, the size of all selected files - show directory tree - file find . The files are displayed in a normal file list for further operations. - Text search in files. Files are also displayed in a file list. - User defined pulldown activated via hotkey Definition in ASCII file "MENUE.DAT", "MENUE2.DAT" - Sorted file display with following criteria : - alphabetic - date - size - extension - unsorted - mode - screen save after n minutes without an activity. Tecnical data -------------- Hard- Software requirements : - IBM compatible PC/AT - CGA/EGA/VGA or Hercules Graphic adapter - Disk usage ca. 170kB. - MS-DOS > 3.0 or OS/2 V1.x and V2.0 - min. 256kB main memory >60 Quit the program With this function you quit this program. >61 Set file attributes/time -------------------------- Set the file attributes SYSTEM, READONLY, HIDDEN, ARCHIVE and the file date and time. The display is updated immediately and shows the new settings. >62 Copy files ---------------- With this function you can copy a file, all selected files or a whole directory. After activationg you can enter a destination path in the command line. The path last entered is displayed as default.

The following commands are possible : ESC : Cancel operation, no search operation in other selected files s : skip File and continue searching in other selected files i : invalid entry h : change to hex display >65 Excecute commands ------------------- Execute a command with/without swapping program memory. With CURSOR UP a command history of the already entered commands is displayed. You can choose one command of that list with Cursor and Return. If there is any combination of a command and the fileextension defined in the preference file the command is added to the filename. >66 Define the filemask -------------------- Set the filemask for the file window. If you enter nothing *.* is default. >67 Programm quick start ---------------------- The command defined for the given fileexetension in the preference file is immediately executed. >68 File rename ------------- With this function you can rename a file or directory. >69 Set a file selection mask ---------------------------- Set a file selection mask. If you enter nothing *.* is default. >70 Execute a command with all selected files ------------------------------------------------------ You can enter a command in the commandline.

After Return the path is checked for existance of the program. >101 Setup file viewer ------------------ Please enter the coplete path of the external fileviewer. After Return the path is checked for existance of the program. >102 Setup wordprocessing ----------------------- Please enter the coplete path of your wordprocessing program. After Return the path is checked for existance of the program. >103 Setup hexeditor ---------------- Please enter the coplete path of the external fileeditor. After Return the path is checked for existance of the program. >104 Setup file differences ----------------------- Please enter the coplete path of the program for finding file differences (diff). After Return the path is checked for existance of the program. >107 Setup colors -------------- Definition of all color settings. Change the background color with CURSOR UP/DOWN and the foreground color with CURSOR LEFT/RIGHT. You have to accept the new color setting for a specific color with RETURN and save the setup.

You can choose : alphabetic date and time file size file extension unsorted mode /selected files in front >110 Setup darkscreen ---------------------- Define a time in minutes before the screen display is switched off. In darkscreen mode a random pixel picture is displayed. >111 Setup userlevel ---------------- In BEGINNER Level the files with SYSTEM- and HIDDEN attribut are not displayed. This offers more security so that they can't be deleted by an user error. >300 Setup userlevel ---------------- In BEGINNER Level the files with SYSTEM- and HIDDEN attribut are not displayed. This offers more security so that they can't be deleted by an user error. >301 Advanced Userlevel ------------------- In ADVANCED level all files are displayed. >400 Compare files ------------------ Compare all selected files of the list (global list) with a destination directory. File date, time size and existance will be compared. Files with differences are selected after execution. The state of the file is displayed as : O or OLD : source file older than destination file N or NEW : source file newer than destination file - or --- : file not existent in destination directory < or <<< : file smaller than in destination directory but same date and time. > or >>> : file bigger than in destination directory but same date and time. >401 File differences -------------------------- This command compared files using the program entered in setup for file differnces. The output can be redirected (CON for console default). >402 Filefind ---------------- Locating files on one drive. You have to enter the path and the search mask in the edit window, for example Search : c:\*.exe Search : .\*.c Search : .\*.[c-h] The files mathing the mask are displayed in a global filelist for further executions with the normal program file functions. If you enter nothing *.* is default. If you don't enter a directory the search starts at the root \ . >403 Move files ------------------ Move selected files in another directory on the same partition. >404 Command recursive ------------------ Enter a command and a filemask in the dialog box. All files matching the file mask are executed with the given command.
