The Complete Directory Manager v1.10 for PCBoard 14.5
by
Derek Backus
Data: (818)303-2042
==============================================================================
----USAGE----
This is a very strait forward program. All you need to do is type in the
command line like this:
CMPDIR <pcboard.dat location> <Conference #>
EXAMPLES:
CMPDIR C:\PCB 0 (For the Main Board conference)
CMPDIR C:\PCB 1 (For Conference 1)
CMPDIR C:\PCB 2 (For Conference 2)
==============================================================================
----HEADER FILES----
There are two files that you may wish to create, but are completely optional.
One of these files will be inserted into the header of the main directory,
and the other will be inserted into all the file areas. These files must be
in the same directory as the CMPDIR program. The two files are as follows:
MAINHDR.TXT (File inserted into the Main directory file)
AREAHDR.TXT (File inserted into each of the area directory files)
These two files may (and I highly suggest) use the PCBoard @X codes for
color in them. They may be of any length, and use any of the PCBoard @X
colors.
==============================================================================
----CLRDIR----
************* There is also a file included that clears the header out of
** WARNING ** the directory files. This MUST be run BEFORE you use
************* PCBfiler! Failure to do so will result in PCBfiler LOCKING
up, and you having to reset your computer.
EXAMPLES:
CLRDIR C:\PCB 0 (To clear the main board conference)
CLRDIR C:\PCB 1 (To cleat conference 1)
NOTE: CMPDIR should be run after you exit PCBfiler to re-colorize and create
the new information concerning the updated directory files. I suggest
a batch file to start PCBfiler. The contents would include:
cd\pcb\cmpdir
clrdir c:\pcb 0
cd\pcb
PCBfiler
cd\pcb\cmpdir
cmpdir c:\pcb 0
cd\
This will insure that the proper steps are taken every time you run PCBfiler.
