Program : Disk-at-a-Glance for Windows, version 1.0 Nov 1993
-------
Author : Steve Leonard, Compusrve ID 73557,203
------
Purpose : Shows what's using all your hard disk
-------
Features - Tree Map with Directory Sizes and Subdir Counts & sizes
-------- - Pie Charts depict 16 largest directories
- Analog Gauges show free space for all drive letters
- Can PRINT hardcopy of Tree Map, Gauges, and Pie Charts
To Install:
1. Copy DAGW.EXE and DAGW.HLP to any directory on your hard disk
2. Using the Program Manager File menu, select "New", then select "Item"
3. For Description, type anything (like "DaaG"). Then click the "Browse"
button; naviagte to the directory that you copied DAGW.EXE to, and
double click on DAGW.EXE
4. Click OK; Then double click on the DaaG Icon to run.
Note: To run this program, you need to have the file BWCC.DLL in your
WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory; BWCC.DLL is not included with this program
because it is a large (?) file - about 152,000 bytes, and you
probably already have this file. This is a standard file, and should
be readily available from the BBS or shareware distributor that
you received this program from. It is avaiable on Compuserve as
BWCC.ZIP (40k) - GO BDEVTOOLS.
Running DaaG:
Just click on the various buttons on the Daag Button Bar. You'll quickly
see what DaaG does - provide information about what is consuming all your
disk space. This data is presented in the form of Tree Maps, Pie Charts,
Gauges and Bar Graphs (Bar Graphs only if you send payment).
When you select the Pie Chart or Tree Map options, Daag will report for
the currently selected drive. To switch to another drive letter, click
on the Select Drive button.
=============================== IMPORTANT ===================================
Daag will create a directory named DAAG to hold the tree map
file "DAAG32.TRE". It will do this on every drive you request stats for.
If you decide not to keep Daag, you should delete the DAAG directory,
which will exist on every drive letter you request stats for.
Other than that, delete DAGW.EXE and DAGW.HLP.
************************************************************************
* Don't worry - DaaG does not make any changes to any of your system *
* files (Autoexec.Bat, Config.Sys, the INI files, etc). *

License:
DaaG is not a free program. If you continue to use DaaG after a 10 day
evaluation period, you are required to send a modest payment of only $6 to
Steve Leonard, 212 Green Springs Ln, Madison, AL 35758.
Upon receipt of payment, you will be sent a postcard (NOTHING ELSE!) which
contains a code number. This code number will activate DaaG's Bar Graph
feature, as well as remove the shareware notice from the About box.
How to use the Code Number
All you do is enter the code number on the command line after DAGW.EXE. IT's
easy. Try it now using 123 as a demo code number.
1. Get into Program Manager and single click on the DaaG icon.
2. Select File | Properties from the Program Manager Menu
3. In the Command Line dialog box, after DAGW.EXE simply type "123"
(without the quotes; and leave a single space betweeen DAGW.EXE and 123).
4. Click OK;
5. Run DaaG by double clicking the DaaG icon. Click the Bar Graph button
and now you will receive a message stating that 123 is the wrong code.
6. When you receive the postcard with the real code, simply enter it in place
of the 123 and DaaG will activate the Bar Graph function. It displays a
window of Bar Graphs of all directories, ordered from largest to
smallest.
Note: Even in the registered version, the Bar Graph window CANNOT be printed!
The Bar Graph scale changes depending on which directory your scrolling
window starts at. The scale is printed at the top of the window. If you
scroll 1 unit left or right, the scale may become inaccurate - to correct
simply scroll the window up and down, or scroll a page at a time. The
Bar Graph window is designed to show RELATIVE directory sizes; for
EXACT sizes, refer to the Tree Map window.
