FRONTWINDOW UTILITIES Soft Vistas for Windows Registration:L30 (UK)
WIN_UTIL MAR92 FILE MANAGER
Files:FRONTW11.ZIP
"FrontWindow is a sophisticated file manager for Windows 3.0 (standard or
enhanced mode). You can use it to copy, move, delete and rename files
and directories and also change file attributes. The find facility lets
you search for files and directories across hard partitions or on floppy
drives. You can also compare directories to find duplicate files.
"An important feature of FrontWindow is its use of the Multiple Document
Interface (MDI). This gives moveable and resizeable windows. They can also
be minimised and maximised. The minimise icons appear behind the Notes Window,
if this is enabled. All of the windows are coordinated to give a smooth
integration of tasks.
"Two of the unique features of FrontWindow are the Bin and the directory
notes. The File Bin is used to hold files that you have selected from
different directories which can be on different drives or partitions. You
can then carry out an action on all of the files in the Bin, such as,
moving files from different directories to a single directory.
"The directory notes facility gives a text editor for entering directory
documentation. The notes for each directory are saved to disk. As you
move around a directory tree the notes for the current directory are loaded
into the Notes Window.
"For registered users there are two very useful backup and restore facilities.
An entire subdirectory tree or all the files in the File Bin can be backedup
and restored.
"FrontWindow lets you print complete documentation for the whole or part of
a directory tree, consisting of the path, the notes and the file list for
each directory. Alternatively, you can print a graphical representation for
the entire drive or partition tree.
"You can run applications from within FrontWindow. You can also add command
lines to customise a FrontWindow menu, in this way frequent tasks are instantly
accessible from within FrontWindow.
