OTHER PROGRAMS AVAILABLE
========================
The program included in this arced file is only one of the five hard-
disk management utilities I wrote. These programs are: Sub, SubA, Fill,
DDup and Sin. You may find these programs where you got this one (they
were all originally uploaded to the Compuserve's IBM Software Interest
group, IBMSW's data library).
These programs are describes below. If you cannot find them or if you
want to save on connection time, you can order them by mail. Send me a $30
check and I'll return you a floppy disk containing these programs. Allow
me a few week for delivry. If you want to confirm the availability of
these programs and my adresse before sending me a check, you can join me
online on Compuserve (ID: 76606,671) or on BIX Info Exchange (Bix name:
jlalonde).

is done at no cost (except floppy's cost) if the documentation files and
the copyrights remain intact. They are all written in MODULA-2/86 Rel. 2.0

receive those text files, please send me a $25 check per program.
Sub v3.2
--------
Search file (or files with wild cards) on hard-disk down from any
directory. This version add the ability to apply DOS functions (delete,
move, list, rename, or change attributes) to files found. Search according
to files dates, size or attributes (r-o, hid., system, arc, etc). Sum
*total* bytes for given files.
SubA v1.0
---------
Search file (or files with wild cards) on hard-disk down from any
directory including inside the arced files (*.ARC). Every search criteria
(dates, size or attributes) and options you found in Sub are available in
SubA except the DOS functions (delete, move, etc.). It add the ability
to search in arced files or to ask for a list (verbose listing) of files
inside given arced files.
Fill v1.4
---------
Copy files of a big directory or of a sub-directory on a minimum
number of floppies. Files copied are still executable on the floppy.
Restore with "A>copy *.* c:\directory". Tells you how many floppies are
needed and allows you to dir, cd, md, rd, del or format the target floppy
within the program. Any floppy configuration compatible with DOS 3.0 is
supported. Restriction: biggest file to copy must fit on one floppy
(360k or 1.2 meg).
DDup v1.0
---------
Allows you to delete or rename duplicated files. Modes: twin files
(same name and specs), duplicated specs (same size and date-time) or
duplicated names. DDup can scan multiple drives for as much as 2,400 files
per 100k of available RAM.
Sin v2.1
--------
Search for a given string in specified files down from any directory.
Skip binary files (by extension at your choice). Displays filename, line
number and the text of line containing the string. Fast screen output. This
version requires monochrome display, a new color configurable version is on
the way. Sin can send its output to the printer or a text file.
Generalities
------------
Sub, SubA, Fill, DDup and Sin commands can be included in batch
files. Sub and SubA can read permanent parameters in your environment
(see the DOS command "SET"). All but Sin support redirected i/o via DOS
commands (refer to documentation). With this feature, output can be sent
to the printer or to a text file. Also, they can be used through a modem
with any DOS shell program. All five programs require PC-DOS or MS-DOS 3.0
or later.
Sub v3.2 and SubA v1.0 will be available in a near future. Actually,
only Sub v3.1 is available.
