- ZARC Ver 2.2
-
-
- An easy to use Zip manager. It displays the current
- default directory and you simply tag the files you
- want zipped.
-
-
- Updated version to operate correctly while using DOS 5.0
- and addition of ZipView function.
-
- ________________
-
-
- 3 Files provided within the Zipfile:
-
- ZARC.EXE (Main program)
- ZARC.TXT (This file)
- FILE_ID.DIZ (File description for automatic insertion
- of description when uploaded to most BBS's)
-
- Any other or additional files included in the zip are not
- supplied by me and should be removed before uploading to
- a BBS.
-
- ________________
-
-
- To use, The program PKZIP.EXE (R) must be on your disk,
- and preferably within a search path.
- If it is not in a search path, you may specify on the
- command line, what directory or drive, PKZIP is in.
- Example:
- C:>ZARC C:\zip\
-
-
- It is best to place PKZIP in a directory and include that
- directory in the path statement in your Autoexec.bat file.
- Then you may place this program in the same directory and
- call both programs from which ever drive or directory you
- are working in.
-
-
- To select files in a directory, simply go to that directory
- and invoke ZARC.
- A window listing of the directory files will appear.
- Select the files that you want to include in the zip-file
- by pressing the space-bar to tag, or un-tag the selections.
- The directory may have more than one page of files, and
- additional pages may be displayed by pressing PgDn or PgUp.
- The Arrow keys will move the highlighted file marker up or
- down. When pressing the spacebar, the highlighting marker
- moves down one place so as to tag many files easily. You
- must change pages to tag additional files on the other pages.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- When you are finished selecting the files by tagging them,
- press Z and enter the name of the zipfile that want to create.
- Do not use any extension with the zipfile name. It will
- default to .ZIP automatically. If the selected Zip name
- already exist, a warning will be displayed.
- If the file already exist, it can either add the tagged files
- to the existing zip, or update the existing zip if the file
- already exist within the zip.
-
- Zarc will exit and zip the files requested into the file name
- that you specified.
-
- The following commands are available in registered versions
- of ZARC.EXE only:
- V = View an ascii file.
- Alt-V = Zip-View a zipped file.
- Alt-T = Tag all files.
- Alt-U = Untag all files.
-
- While selecting files, registered versions may view text files
- to ensure that you are zipping the proper file.
- If ZARC finds characters in the viewed file that are not ascii
- characters, it will cancel and return to the window. likewise
- if the file extension is .EXE or .COM it won't even try to view
- the file and beep to tell you that it is not viewable.
-
- Registered versions can Zip-View A zipped file to display the
- file names within the zipfile. To view the file names within a
- Zipfile, Enter Alt-V. You can only Zip-View a file that has a
- .ZIP extension.
-
- Registered versions can Tag or Untag all files in the directory
- with one keystroke by entering Alt-T or Alt-U.
