RE: Version 2.36
The enclosed program (SR.EXE) and documentation (SR.DOC) are for
version 2.36 of the STILL RIVER SHELL user supported software.
The Still River Shell is a powerful DOS system 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.
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.
- Display graphically directory tree structures and use tree
display to make, remove or list directories.
- 1 -
- 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
