- DFF - File Finder
-
-
-
- DFF is a file finder. You give it a file name with or without wild cards,
- and it will search the current drive for all files that match the name. To be
- honest there are dozens of other programs that will do what DFF will do but
- they either operate at such a low level that they will not function in a LAN
- environment, or they cannot be interrupted.
- If you find DFF useful my efforts have been rewarded. If you feel inclined
- to reward my efforts monetarily my gratitude will know no bounds..
-
- Various command line options can tell DFF to search other drives as well.
- For example a "/d" will tell it to search all drives starting with the current
- drive, and a "/d+" will tell it to search all drives starting with drive "C:".
- If you want DFF to search all drives starting with a specific drive, you
- can give it a "/Sx" argument where x=the_drive_to_start_searching_on.
- If you want DFF to log its efforts to a file or device give it a "/Lxxxxx"
- argument where xxxxx=device_to_write_to. The device can be a filename or a
- printer.
-
- Command line arguments can be intermixed, and they are not case sensitive.
- Below are some examples..
-
-
- DFF *.bak <<- look for all .BAK files on current drive
-
- DFF *.bak /d <<- look for all .BAK files on all drives starting
- with current drive
-
- DFF *.bak /d+ <<- look for all .BAK files on all drives starting
- with drive "C:"
-
- DFF *.bak /sf <<- look for all .BAK files on all drives starting
- with drive "F:"
-
- DFF *.bak /d+ /lprn <<- look for all .BAK files on all drives starting
- with drive "C:" and log results to the printer on
- "PRN"
