UNZIPIT VERSION 2.0
By Ed O'Halloran
Unzipit is a DOS utility written in Turbo Pascal 7.0 that is
designed to automate the installation of Zip Files. Unzipit
will work from any drive or directory, including floppys, as
long as a copy of PKUNZIP.EXE is somewhere on your path.
SETUP is simple, simply copy UNZIPIT.EXE and PKUNZIP.EXE to
your DOS directory and make sure DOS is on your path statement
in AUTOEXEC.BAT. Typically PATH C:\DOS;
RUNNING Unzipit, Type UNZIPIT to start the application, when
asked for the source drive type in the letter of the drive you
want to search and press ENTER. A scroll bar will then appear
under the title box listing the directories on the selected
drive, use the arrow keys to scroll through the directories.
What it does: Unzipit used a Lotus style reverse light bar to
allow you to search all drives and directories on your system
for ZIP Files. Once the Zip File you want to install is located
simply highlight it and press enter. Unzipit will then use the
Zip File name to set up a default directory. Example if you
Highlight the file $JILL.ZIP in the directory C:\Procomm\File
Unzipit will then give you the default INSTALL TO C:\$JILL OR
ENTER YOUR OWN TARGET DIRECTORY __.
Once this option is selected Unzipit will create the target
directory, or warn you if it already exists, copy the selected
Zip File to the Target, Unzip the file, eliminate the unneeded
copy of the ZIP File (The Original Will Be Left Intact) and
exit you to to the target directory.
If no ZIP Files are located use the ESC key to stop the search
then type in a new drive letter to search or Q to quit.
Unzipit is unrestricted for personal use, commercial users must
first obtain permission.
No guarantees of compatibility are expressed or implied.
