PAKLIST v1.0
25 August 1988
Michael J. Housky and Jeffrey J. Nonken
Copyright 1988 by Michael J. Housky and Jeffrey J. Nonken.
Released to the public domain August 1988. No rights reserved.
PAKLIST will list the contents of one or more archive files, such
as produced by the Phil Katz utilities PKPAK and PKPAKJR. It will
also list archive files produced by newer versions of ARC.EXE, or
so we believe. For each archive matching a given file
specification, PAKLIST lists the name, size(original and
compressed), date and time of last update, and CRC of each
member.
Usage:
PAKLIST filespec
The filespec may include a drive and path. The characters * and ?
may be used as wildcards in the filename and extension, with the
* matching zero or more characters, and the ? matching one
character. If no filetype extension is given, a default filetype
of .PAK is assumed.
A typical example may look like this:
D>PAKLIST Q:BBSLIST
Searching ... Q:BBSMOVE.PAK
Filename Length Size Date Time CRC

BBSMOVE.DOC 10624 4842 13-Feb-1986 11:36:24 C490
BBSMOVE.EXE 28288 25413 13-Feb-1986 11:36:24 774C
The purpose of this small program is to provide a quick and small
tool for listing archive files, and to provide an example (in
free and clear PD source code) of how to perform simple
manipulations of such files. The reason for the peculiar .PAK
filetype extension is due to Mike Housky, who is trying to ignite
a grass-roots standard for identifying archives produced by the
techically superior PKWARE Inc. utilites, and incompatible with
the ARC program distributed by SEA.
