¢¢ Introducing...¢ áקזדáיחככדפᢠv2.1¢¢¢A File Utility for use with SpartaDOS.¢--------------------------------------¢¢The Killer is a useful utility for¢multiple file deletions from your¢SpartaDOS directories and sub-¢directories. The Killer will let you¢verify the deletes from a wild-card¢erase command. It is especially good¢on Hard Drives with a lot of files¢and sub-directories.¢¢After initially writing Killer 1.0, I¢decided I wanted to try to process¢the dirspec from the DOS Command¢Line. Hence, version 2. Thanks to¢the SpartaDOS Construction Set¢Documentation, I was able to do this.¢Also, I would like to thank Chris¢King and Keith Ledbetter - without¢their help, I probably would not¢have even attempted to write a¢program, let alone actually finish¢one. Now if I could just learn¢Assembler.....¢¢¢¢Unleashing the Killer¢*********************¢¢Rename KILL21 to KILL.COM and type¢KILL at the 'Dn:' prompt. The Killer¢will load and display the following¢prompt:¢¢<Y> - Kills <ESC> - Aborts¢¢*****>D1:¢¢and then you will see the first¢filename from the default directory¢which you can either Kill (with a¢ 'Y') or bypass (any other key).¢¢The Killer will search through the¢specified path and display all files¢in that path one at a time with the¢'?' prompt after each one. If you¢wish to kill that file, type a 'Y'¢at the '?' prompt. The file will¢be killed. Any other character¢typed will allow that file to live.¢Hitting the <ESC> key will abort you¢from that path and return you to the¢'Dn:' prompt.¢¢¢¢Some Examples¢*************¢¢Typing KILL D1: will search the¢default directory on drive 1 and¢prompt you for a response.¢¢Typing KILL STUFF will look on the¢default drive for a sub-dir called¢STUFF prompt you for a response.¢¢KILL D2:STUFF will search all files¢on drive 2 in the sub-dir STUFF¢¢etc... etc...¢¢I usually put KILL.COM in my Ramdisk¢before a session and type¢D8:KILL D1:mydir and go from there.¢¢¢WARNING!¢********¢¢áקΦσáיΘ∮∮σ≥á is MERCILESS. He will¢kill any file you answer 'Y' to.¢He does not care if the file is¢protected or not!!!!! The only¢thing that can stop him is a locked¢disk.¢¢¢**********¢¢¢I hope you find áקΦσáיΘ∮∮σ≥á to be a ¢useful utility. I have spent quite¢a few hours testing and debugging¢the code.
