- *************************************************************************
- Current Revision Information
-
- The latest revision is 1.03a.
-
- Revision 1.03a
-
- Fixes a bug when sweeping large numbers of small files to a single floppy.
- Occasionally, the floppy root directory limit was exceeded. Now there is
- an artificial limit of 200 files.
-
- New in this revision, in the Cleanup window, when file(s) are selected, the
- message banner at the bottom displays the number of files selected as well
- as the total size in bytes occupied by those files.
-
- Revision 1.03
-
- Fixes a bug in version 1.02's sweep where clean floppies are rejected.
- The workaround for Revision 1.02 is just to put any file on the floppy
- before sweeping to it.
-
- Revision 1.02
-
- This is a maintenance release, fixing some serious problems in
- backing up and restoring data. There are no new
- features. Registered users are still entitled to the next major
- release at no cost.
-
- DSWTSR.EXE = Version 1.2
-
- Level Moderate
- Fixes problem where the TSR could not correctly restore large
- sweep files which spread across > 1 floppy.
-
- Effect The new TSR works correctly.
-
- DSWEEP.EXE = Version 1.02
-
- Level Severe
- Fixes Problem when backing up large files which did not fit
- entirely on a single floppy. Sometimes the data would
- be truncated.
-
- Effect There is no remedy if data is truncated on the floppy.
- This only happens when files are spread across floppies.
-
- Level Moderate
- Fixes Problem when doing a manual restore of a file that crossed
- a floppy onto another. The second floppy did not correctly
- load.
-
- Effect The new version automatically fixes this.
-
- Level Moderate
- Fixes Problem of incorrectly tagging files that spread across
- more than one floppy. This results in the automatic
- restore feature being broken.
-
- Effect Previously swept files will not manually restore but
- a manual restore via the Load and Restore mechanism will
- still work.

- Installation
-
- To install this program, insert this floppy into either the
- A: or B: drive. From Windows, in the Program Manager, run
- the SETUP.EXE program on the installation floppy. To do this
- pull down the File menu and select Run from that menu. In the
- dialog box, fill in A:SETUP or B:SETUP, depending on which
- drive the floppy is inserted into.
-
- Compatibility
-
- PCTools' DiskFix program is incompatible with DiskSweep.
- DiskFix will mistakenly detect corrupted directory structures
- and ERASE the entire hard disk. Do not run DiskFix with
- DiskSweep installed.
-
- On some machines, the use of FASTOPEN will cause Windows to
- freeze when DiskSweep is also running. If you see this
- happening, stop using FASTOPEN.
-
- There are no other known incompatibilities at this time.
