- SHEZ is a shell program to make viewing and working with
- archive files user friendly. In order for SHEZ to function
- you must have one or more of the following archive programs:
-
- PKZIP, PKUNZIP by Phil Katz for ZIP files.
- PKUNPAK, PKPAK by Phil Katz for ARC files.
- LHARC by Haruyasu Yoshizaki for LZH files.
- ZOO by Rahul Dhesi for ZOO files.
- PAK by NoGate Consulting for PAK files.
-
- In addition you will need Vern Buerg's LIST program. Please
- note that these programs are copyrighted and they can be
- obtained from most BBS's.
-
- If you want to use the virus scan option of SHEZ you will
- also need the virus scan program by McAfee Associates call
- SCAN.EXE. This program can be found on most major BBS's or
- you may obtain it by calling the McAfee BBS. You must obtain
- version 39 or greater of this program in order for SHEZ to
- use it correctly.
-
- To start-up SHEZ simply enter "SHEZ [d:\path\filespec]".
- You may specify wild cards in the filespec. If you use wild
- cards in the filespec SHEZ will present you with a scrollable
- list of files that it found matching the filespec. SHEZ
- recognizes the special filename.fileext of $.$. If you
- specify a filespec of $.$ SHEZ will list only the files
- having an extension of .ARC, .ZIP, .LZH, and ZOO, or the
- files having extension matching the extensions that where set
- using the configuration program. SHEZ will also recognize
- just the $ file extension along with a DOS wildcard
- filename. For example if you start SHEZ by entering SHEZ
- C:\UTY\P*.$ SHEZ will display a list of files that have a
- filename beginning with the letter P and that have a file
- extension of .ARC,.ZIP,.LZH,.ZOO,.PAK, or what ever you set
- the extentions to using the config. program.
-
- You may also start SHEZ and specify a sub-directory name of
- the directory you are currently in. For example, if you are
- currently in the C:\UTILITY directory and you want to work on
- the files in the C:\UTILITY\PGMS directory start SHEZ by
- entering the following: SHEZ PGMS\
-
- Also included in the file list will be any directories that
- SHEZ found. The directory names will be enclosed in greater
- than and less than symbols. I.E. <DIR1>. You can position
- the highlight bar on a directory name and press the enter key
- to view the files and directories that are contained in that
- directory. To move up one level in the directory tree
- highlight the directory entry that appears as <..>. As you
- change directories the full disk:\pathname will be displayed
- on the main screen. In addition the disk:\path that will
- receive extracted files is also displayed on the main
- screen. You can than choose the file you wish to work on by
- moving the highlight bar with the cursor keys and pressing
- the enter key. SHEZ will then present you with a screen
- showing the contents of the archive file.
-
- To perform a function, simply position the highlight bar and
- press the key(s) that corresponds to the function you want to
- perform on that member. Pressing the F1 key will open a
- window giving you context sensitive help.
-
- SHEZ also has a built-in menuing system. To activate the
- menu system press the forward slash key. A menu bar will
- appear at the top of the screen. Using the left and right
- cursor keys you may select major menu item. Press the enter
- key to view the choices under the menu item. Using the up
- and down cursor keys you may choose an action item and then
- press the enter key to perform that item. Pressing the ESC
