■ What is DCFR?
As PKunZIP on ZIP files, DCFR lets you manipulate image files created with
DCF. You can view the contents of an image, or extracts files from it.
■ How to do it?
DCFR is _very_ easy to use.
Here's the DCFR usage (type DCFR at dos prompt to get it):
|| usage: DCFR [options] <filename> [filespec] [destpath] [options]
||
|| where <filename> is the DCF image file
|| [filespec]: optional: filespec with wildcard (ex: [0-9]*c.asm)
|| options: -e extract files
|| -o overwrite existing files
|| -a restore attributes (Hidden System RO Archive)
|| -d create directories when needed
|| -v list image file (default)
|| -x<filespec> exclude files (wildcards ok)
Some examples:
Suppose you've created an image file of a 1.44 diskette using DCF, and
this file is named FOO.DCF.
To view the contents of foo, just do:
DCFR foo.DCF
You may use some strange filespec:
DCFR foo.DCF [a-e1-5]*g*.*[8-9]
you want to extract all files, in the current directory:
DCFR -e foo.dcf
extract all files, overwriting existing ones, with original attributes:
DCFR -o foo.dcf -e -a
extract all ASM & C files, create subdirs if needed:
DCFR -e -d foo.dcf *.asm *.c
or DCFR foo.dcf -ed *.asm *.c
extract all PAS & ASM files, create subdirs, overwrite existing,
exclude FOO*.* and FAA*.*
DCFR -e -o -d -xfoo*.* -xfaa*.* foo.dcf *.asm *.pas
or DCFR foo.dcf -eodxfoo*.* *.asm *.pas -xfaa*.*
or DCFR -o foo.dcf -e *.asm *.pas -d -xfoo*.* -xfaa*.*
extract all files beginning with (a,b,c or d), to f:\toto\titi:
DCFR -e foo.dcf [a-d]*.* f:\toto\titi
or DCFR -e foo.Dcf f:\toto\titi [a-d]*.*
Type DCFR if you want to get help.
