Okay, enough begging.... Here I am, sitting and typing at two in the
morning. These two ULTRA files have drained 99% of my vitality!
My main purpose for creating this was to blow away all other
batch file utilities (which I think has been achieved), and to set
the standard for future batch file reference. I apologize for having
to split these functions up into two separate files, but my compiler
kept locking up trying to build the entire damn thing in one file.
Using large model caused a hard lock-up upon running ULT.EXE, and there
fore I was forced to use the two-file-format.
I shyed away from having 250 separate .COM files with 250 separate
document files. This would cause MASS CONFUSION and become a large mess
in a directory. I admit these two files are rather large, but the tight
organizational structure is very handy, and outweighs the disadvantage
of a 400 file mess in a directory.
In case you're wondering, my favorite functions are:
ULTVU.EXE the absolute best archive viewer, ever!
/WRITE Writes any of 36 little .COM files that are very useful.
/32CRC Very cool. A definitely good way to check vital
files for viruses.
/DUMP Awesome! If applications are changing your environment
all the time... fight back.
/ENVG Colorful, graphic way to see your DOS environment.
/MAP Save all the files/directories on your hard drive.
/DIAL Call up your friends with the modem! Set up 10 batch
files with all your favorite people in them.
God bless,
Dave Smith
