- This program enables the user to easily determine which clusters a
- specified file occupies. The first data cluster on every DOS disk is
- considered by DOS to be Cluster #2. If a file occupies a number of
- contiguous clusters, this program will not list each one separately,
- but will list them as a range.
-

- Command Format:
-
- CHAIN [d:][path]filename.ext
-
-
- Examples:
-
- CHAIN SAMPLE.BAK (Will tell what clusters belong to the file
- SAMPLE.BAK on the current drive in the current
- sub-directory)

- CHAIN A:TEMP (Will tell what clusters belong to the file TEMP
- on the currently selected sub-directory of
- drive A)
-
- CHAIN \FRED (Will tell what clusters belong to the file FRED
- in the root directory of the current drive)

- regularly, you are MORALLY obligated to do so. Aside from easing your
- conscience, basic registration will also get you a diskette containing
- the latest version of the software (unless you currently have the
- latest version, in which case I will send you the next major revision),
- a printed version of the documentation (8-1/2 x 11, unless you specify

- full user support, which includes telephone support and all major
- revisions of the software for two (2) years from the date of
- registration. Fully registered users will also receive new SMG
- releases from time to time for evaluation. In return for these
- evaluations, the user will receive full registration for the new
- software at no charge. When you register, please specify the name of
- the program, and the version number.
- Note that no support will be given to unregistered users EXCEPT in
- the case of MAJOR bugs which preclude the unregistered user from using
- the program. I will then do my best to resolve these problems so that
- the user may evaluate the software fully.
