Folders Program
Version 2.0
(c)Copyrigh 1991 Sloop Software
The folders program adds depth to the Program Manager groups. It gives the
ability equivalent to having groups within groups. Each folder can hold
any type of file you decide to place in it, including more folders.
Features include:
- Add any type of item to a folder
- Move or copy items from folder to folder
- Launch your applications directly from a folder
- Customizable command lines for any item
- Icon representation of items in folder
- Tie two or more folders to the same subfolder
- Infinite depth of folders (at least up to the number
of folders supported)
Installation:
1. Copy the files FOLDERS.EXE, FOLDERS.HLP and FOLDERS.INI to your
windows directory.
2. Run FINSTALL and follow its directions.
3. That's it. Your are now ready to start getting organized.
If this installation process should fail, follow the directions for
manual install found in FOLDERS.WRI.
Getting Started:
1. Once the program is installed, open your first folder.
2. You can rename it, if you want, using the name command under the FILE
menu. Be sure and rename it in the program group, too.
3. From this folder, or any folder you create, you can make new folders.
Simply choose new from the FILE menu. You can create subfolders or
new group level folders such as this first folder.
4. Create whatever folders you want and add items to them using the
add command from the EDIT menu. For detail information on each
command, use either the help menu or read FOLDERS.WRI.
5. A word of warning on creating new folders. Each folder needs to have
a unique name. Lower or upper case makes no difference.
