If you currently have Beta 1 or any earlier alpha version installed,
then uninstall the older Fileman Beta/Alpha first by selecting the Automatic

The runtime libraries are no longer included with this archive, you will
need to download and install FJVB5LIB.ZIP in order for this product to run
correctly. However, if you had a previous version of this New Fileman

system.

Completely uninstall FileMan Win95/NT Alpha 1 before you run this new
setup.exe. Also, delete the old \fileman directory and any remaining
leftover file contents of this directory before you run setup.exe. I
am asking this as I want to make sure this version of setup.exe is now
installing properly. :)

FileMan v1.0.0 Win95/NT - Alpha 1 - Release Date: 8/12/97
Ok folks here's the first release of the new Fileman.
I would strongly recommend that you allow fileman to be installed in the
\tribbs\fileman directory so it will not overwrite the dos version of
fileman.exe files during our alpha testing cycle.. We got a long way to
yet before we can replace our dos version.
Please do not pass or give this alpha out.. These alpha updates are for
Alpha testers only!
Also, you will need to put a copy of sysdat2.dat into the new fileman
directory that points to Node 1's main directory.. Not doing so will cause
FileMan not to be able to find the TriBBS system data files.
Finally, after Setup is complete, you will see some files in the new fileman
directory with these following extensions.. *.CNT, *.HLP, *.DLL, *.EXE. Do
Not delete any of these files or FileMan will not run properly.. The other
DLL's included with Setup.exe will be placed into your \windows\system
directory.
This first alpha will do the following:
Save & Quit
Quit Without Saving
Delete Files
Delete Files - Files List Only
Move Files
Creates an index.bat file which will call makeidx.exe and master.exe at
the closing of fileman if any changes were made and allows you to select
either yes/no to perform the the reindexing. This will open in a dos shell
since these utils are still dos based. Once it is complete, then you will
have to close the dos shell.
As we progress, I will add other commands to the Menus of FileMan. However,
I don't want to rush through this as it is very important that we work out
all bugs and/or problems with the current functions first before I start
adding more code. :) Good Luck and I really hope to get some feed back from
you guys...
Bug Reports should be sent directly to my email address:

Please give details and steps on how you arrived at your bug and perhaps
an idea of what your machine consist of.. Thanks and Enjoy!
