AUTHOR: NoVaSoft, 3239 Riverview Dr., Triangle, VA 22172
Acclaimed by DOS 6 SECRETS author Bob Ainsbury, PC Magazine's Edward Mendelson,
and ZiffNET Threads' Preston Gralla, 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. A print feature prints a
directory listing, including notes if desired (see below).
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. File and text finders locates
files anywhere on the disk quickly, and a print feature prints a listing of the
"hits".
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, and self-checking that will
detect infection by file-infecting viruses.
At $30 registration fee, CMFiler underprices as well as outperforms the rest,
yet it is small at 132k, 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 and monochrome 43/50-line
mode and most laptop LCD displays with a variety of color attribute choices.
