- -----D.COM-----
- OVERVIEW:
- Tells what's different in the directory from when it
- was last set.
-
- USAGE:
- D Lists what has been added or deleted since
- last D SET.
- D SET "Registers" all current file names into D.COM
- D ADD fn.ft "Registers" a single name
- D DEL fn.ft Deletes a single name
-
- D.COM usage: For example, if you have a "system" disk,
- you might like to "keep it clean", but it has a way of filling
- up, and it's not trivial to tell what's different, when just
- doing a directory listing. If you do a D SET on your disk
- when it's the way you want it, then a week later, do "D"
- (no operands) D.COM will tell you what's been added, and
- what's been erase since the last setting.
-
- DEPENDENCIES:
- You may NOT rename D.COM to something else because
- D.COM erases itself ahd writes itself back, in order to not
- have to use a separate file for the registered names.
