RE: Version 2.58
The enclosed program (SR.EXE) and documentation (SR.DOC) are for
version 2.58 of the STILL RIVER SHELL user supported software.
The Still River Shell is a powerful DOS enhancement utility
providing a fast, precise and simple tool for file and directory
management as well as a high performance command interface to
DOS. The Still River Shell will reduce your DOS work effort by
over 80% in terms of time and key strokes. In fact, when you
order the complete manual and latest copy of the Shell, it comes
with a 90 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. If you are not satisfied
with the Still River Shell, just return the manual and diskette
for a full refund. We think you will find the Still River Shell
is just the beauty you need for your beast. Listed: 1987 and
1988 in PC SIG's TOP 100 Shareware Programs.
If this is your first copy of the Shell, the following is a brief
summary of the Still River Shell's features:
- Eliminate almost all command and filename typing.
- Keep a stack of 20 of your prior DOS commands for instant
recall, WP type command line edit and execution.
- Turn your directory into a menu you scroll through,
selecting items for operations.
- Copy, move, delete and list files and directories with
single keystroke command selection.
- Automatic generation of command, file and directory names on
your command line.
- Pass a DOS command line for each file in a set of tagged
files.
- Tag, untag, reverse and recall tag individual files, ranges
of files or all files either directory or system wide.
- See realtime file, directory and disk information as you
execute commands.
- Find files, or text within files, easily anywhere on your
system with one command and operate (view, edit, copy etc)
directly against the found file lists.
- 1 -
- Display graphically directory tree structures and use tree
display to make, remove or list directories.
- View the contents of a file in character or hex.
- Sort files by physical order, attribute, name, extension,
size or date.
- Protect against accidentally copying onto existing files.
- Modify file attributes.
- Backup large directories onto multiple diskettes.
- Define your own extensions to the Shell's command set. For
example: touch a key to edit, with your editor, the file
your pointing at; or, execute the file; or, archive it; or,
however you choose to define the 40 user definable keys.
- Set flexible, stored configuration options including color,
initial sort, etc.
The Still River Shell runs on the IBM PC, XT, AT & PS/2 or
compatibles under PC-DOS or MS-DOS versions 2.n and 3.n; occupies
a minimum of 94K but does NOT stay resident when it terminates.
Thank you for your interest in the Still River Shell.
Sincerely,
Bill White
