- Introduction│
- ────────────┘
-
- "ZTreeWin" is a text-mode file/directory manager for Windows 95,98,ME
- NT, 2000 & XP. It has been developed as a native Win32 alternative
- to the DOS product, XTreeGold (tm), since its makers have ceased any
- further development. While I am sure you are well aware of the virtues
- of XTreeGold, you know the disadvantages of it being a (real-mode) 16-bit
- DOS program. ZTreeWin was developed to provide the functionality you are
- accustomed to, whilst avoiding all the DOS imposed limitations.
-
- This program is not "crippled". There are some functions and mouse
- commands that are not *yet* implemented. There is NO difference in
- functionality between an evaluation copy and a registered (apart from
- the removal of the evaluation limit).
-
- Given time and support, it is intended to provide all missing functions,
- and requests and suggestions from you the user are welcomed.
-
- License│
- ───────┘
-
- This program is NOT free. You are granted a limited license to evaluate
- the product for 31 days from the date of first use. To continue using
- this version after 31 days, you MUST register. Each subsequent release
- of this product will allow a full 31 days evaluation from time of
- installation.
-
- Please read ORDER.TXT for detailed ordering information.
-
- By registering this product, you are granted unlimited use of this
- and future versions. Your support helps ensure ongoing development.

- Features│
- ────────┘
-
- The original purpose of this program was to provide all the core
- functionality of XTreeGold, in a native 32-bit environment.
-
- There is NO internal editor. Instead, ZTreeWin be configured to
- load your favorite file editor. The default editor is EDIT.COM,
- and of course, text-mode applications are more suitable for this
- purpose. My personal favorite is:
- TSE Pro/32 from Semware Corporation (http://www.semware.com)
-
- There are several functions that are yet to be implemented. Most are,
- I believe, trivial services that you will probably never miss. Others
- are more important, and will be introduced on a most requested basis.
-
- Well, that is all the bad news. Here are some improvements over the
- original.
-
- ZTreeWin uses around 600K of memory, and will allocate and free
- blocks dynamically as required (no more 'out of memory' messages).
-
- The default video mode is 25x80. The Alt-F9 command will toggle the
- other video modes - 28/34/43/50/60 x 80. You may set your preferred
- mode using F10-Configure, and you may override this and the default
- from the command line.
- * Warning: Under Win9x, modes other than 80x25, 43 or 50 can lead
- to problems when launching external programs from ZTreeWin.
- If you experience an apparent 'hang' after returning to ZTreeWin from
- an external program, it is recommended you try a different video mode.
-
- Using Win32 APIs, ZTreeWin avoids several of XTreeGold's limitations:
-
- - Doesn't hog the CPU while waiting for keyboard activity.
- - Trying to log an in-use device will be dealt with gracefully.
- - The ability to copy and search open files.
- - Directory Grafting works.
- - Support of long filenames and directory.
- - Flexible support of any command-line archiver, present and future.
-
