-
- Acclaimed by DOS 6 SECRETS author Bob Ainsbury and PC Magazine's Edward
- Mendelson, CMFiler is the most versatile file manager available today, from
- any distribution medium. CMFiler offers side-by-side display of either
- file lists or disk tree structures, and supports a complete suite of
- directory and file services in either display mode.
-
- In the main file services module, the two display panels function as source
- and target for file copy, move and append. Diverse tagging options let
- you tag all files with same name, extension, or date, or all newer or older.
- Nine ordering schemes and a filename mask give added ease to view large
- directories. Delete or "trash" files in retrievable ~TRASH~ directory,
- set file attributes and change date/time stamps. Newer or read-only files
- are protected against inadvertently being overwritten by older or
- non-read-only files of same name during copying.
-
- Notepad lets you write 39 character notes on files and directories, which
- follow files when copied or moved. Print spooler lets you print files in
- the background while you perform other tasks in the foreground. Built-in
- editor lets you view or edit files -- eg, change AUTOEXEC.BAT without leaving
- CMFiler. Application launcher lets you run other programs from CMFiler
- with one or two keystrokes. Define nine function keys as your most-used
- programs for instant point-and-shoot launching. Special support for common
- compression utilities, and a quick viewer to peek inside compressed files for
- an alphabetical file list remove the drudgery and confusion of compressor/
- extractor command line parameters.
-
- The tree module is not just a tree viewer, but contains complete suite of
- tree structure delete, copy and move operators. Look at file lists without
- leaving tree, even use file editor/viewer. Copy or move a directory structure
- "into" or "under" a target directory (there is a big difference!), or copy
- just the files, or just the directory skeleton.
-
- The most recent addition to CMFiler's long list of features is mouse support.
- Navigation is now even easier in all modules, and the most frequent commands
- appear on the "mouse bar" or in popup menus, letting you do 90% of what you
- need to without the keyboard.
-
- Extra convenience features make CMFiler irresistable. "Freshen" the files
- in one directory from another, format or mass copy a diskette with built-in
- format and disk copy functions, or fill floppies from a hard disk directory to
- create a backup set. Security features include optional file wipe when
- deleting to ensure complete destruction of sensitive data, optional
- password protection, sector slack-space filling.
-
- At $30 registration fee, CMFiler underprices as well as outperforms the rest,
- yet it is small at 120k, tight and fast because it was painstakingly written
- in 100% optimized Assembly language code. Requires only DOS 3 or better, and
- no special system requirements. Supports EGA/VGA 43/50-line mode and most
- laptop LCD displays with a variety of color attribute choices. Member, ASP.
