GOFILE.MNU Copyright 1989 by Marc Perkel
This example allows you to find a file on your hard disk or
network and go to the directory where it is.
It requires that you have WHEREIS from the Computer Tyme DOS
ToolBox, or a WHEREIS type program that can scan your drive and
output complete file names that can be redirected to a temporary
file.
Make sure to create a file called GOFILE.BAT containing:
@ECHO OFF
MARXMENU GOFILE %1
