Short: CD-Rom door for Maxs BBS - scrolling menus, NEEDS NO CFG !

A CD-Rom door for Maxs BBS. This program will scan ANY CD and navigate
itself around directories etc. No config file is required, as the scan
is done as it runs, so as long as you come out of the door before
swapping the CD over, you can then use another CD while the same user
is online.
Movement around the CD is menu driven, you simply press Enter to move
to a directory, and press Esc to 'back out' of it.
This program will support up to 50 directories PER directory, and up to
1200 files PER directory, so although it hasn't been tested with 17-Bit
CD's that have all the files in the same directory, it should work just
fine - it will just take a little longer to scan....
Scanning is usually pretty damn fast, ie. for Aminet CD's, maybe one to
two seconds for the largest file areas.
I have included unpacking utils for DMS and ZIP archives - I have lost
the documentation to them, so greets fly out to the people responsible
for them :-)
The LIST command is also included, and is required for the program to
run. Put it and the unpackers in C: and it'll work just dandy ;-)
* Shareware *
3 Pounds (UK) or a postcard from overseas :-)
Is that too much to ask ? Go on, you know it's worth it !
The registered version also allows online file_id.diz checking / display
in LHA, LZH, LZX, DMS and ZIP files, and text files can also be displayed
online. The registered version also allows file sizes to be viewed.
