ZIP Brand FAST! BETA 0.13 (DOS and OS/2 versions)
-------------------------------------------------
USAGE: ZIPBRAND [/R] [/T] [file name]
If you ever used the -z switch with your ZIP program, you will know what to
use this utility for.
This is a small program to _quickly_ brand all of your ZIP files with a
comment obtained from a file. It will search for unmarked files in the
current directory, and all directories below.
As a file is marked, the file time is set to 00:00:00. This is to avoid
processing an already branded file when the program is run.
If you think this stinks, you can run with the switch /T (no Time mark). It
prevents ZIPBRAND from messing with the date, but it will scan trough and
apply the comment each and every time it is run. (A big waste of time, if you
ask me.)
The switch /R (Reprocess) makes the program scan trough and apply the comment
to all ZIP files it finds, regardless of whate the file time is set to. This
can be fine if you descide to mark all of your ZIPs with a different comment.
Any other parameter will be understood as a file to obtain the commant from.
If not spesified, the program will use a file in the current directory with
the name ZIPBRAND.CMT.
This is the final version of the program (I think). I have used it for some
time, and I'm quite happy with it. But if you have any suggestion, maybe to
make the program more usable to others, come on, send me a mail!
If you think it is usable as it is, please send me a mail. That will convince
me that I did not write all this documentation for nobody ...
