Introduction
Computer Shopper Freebie Disk Volume 2
-------------------------------------------------------

Volume 2 of the Computer Shopper Freebies contains 13 
DOS and Windows utilities ready-to-run plus 
comprehensive on-disk documentation and an install 
program. 

Installing the programs
-----------------------
If your PC has a hard disk, you can use the install 
program (started by typing GO) to copy the DOS programs 
onto it. You can then change to the new directory 
containing the programs and try them out. After 
installing the software, you can come back to this
documentation by changing to the relevant drive
and directory and entering the command DOC.

If you have a floppy-only PC or you don't want to 
put all of the programs straight onto your hard disk,
you can run them directly from this floppy. In this
case, we suggest that you make a working copy of
your original disk with the DOS DISKCOPY command and
keep your original somewhere safe as a back-up.

For more information about setting up and starting
the programs, see the "Tech Notes" document.

Computer Shopper Freebie Disk Volume 2
-------------------------------------------------------

This document provides general advice for using and
setting up the Computer Shopper Freebie utilities.
It is divided into these sections...

  1. Disk contents

  2. Installing the programs

         Installing the programs from DOS

         Saving hard disk space

         Working on a floppy-only PC

         Putting the programs in your DOS command PATH

         Loading programs from AUTOEXEC.BAT

         Using TSR (memory-resident) programs

  3. Viewing and printing the documentation


1. Disk contents
================
This disk contains the following files. These are
stored in the root directory as normal and are 
ready to use. Files marked * are part of the 
installation and documentation programs rather
than the utilities themselves. 

*DOC      EXE  Documentation viewer
*GO       EXE  Install program
*FREEBIE2 TXT  Documentation for this disk
*PCLOGO   EXE  PC Magazine logo display


2. Installing the programs
==========================
To install these programs to a hard disk, use the
install program provided (started by typing GO).
Around 150K of free space is required for all of
the programs and documentation... this will be
checked for you automatically. 

The install program initially offers to install the
programs to a new directory on drive C called PCVOL4.
(C:\PCVOL4). 

If you wish to use a different directory or a
different hard disk, simply type in a new name. For
example, enter D:\PCMAG to put the programs into a
PCMAG directory on your D drive.

You can name an existing directory if you prefer in
which case the install program will add the new 
programs to any files already there.

Once you've entered the directory name, disk space is 
checked and then the files are copied across. 

After installation is complete, you can return to the
opening menu (for example, to view the documentation)
or go straight to the new directory.

Installing the programs from DOS
--------------------------------
You can install all of the programs or just selected
ones using the DOS COPY command in the normal way.
For example, to add the file ZCOPY.COM to your 
normal C:\UTILS directory, enter a command such as

   COPY A:\ZCOPY.COM C:\UTILS

If you do this, you might also want to copy the
files DOC.EXE and MANUALS4.TXT to a suitable 
directory so that you have the documentation to hand.

Saving hard disk space
----------------------
If you are short of hard disk space, you can remove
those utilities you are not using from your hard
disk with the DOS DEL command in the normal way.
You may also want to delete the documentation files
(DOC.EXE and MANUALS4.TXT) as you can always print
out those parts you need or use the original floppy
when you need to refer to it.

Working on a floppy-only PC
---------------------------
If you do not have a hard disk, we suggest that you
make a working copy of this disk using the DOS
DISKCOPY command. You can work directly from this 
copy or use the COPY command to copy those programs 
you require onto your startup disk or other working
disks as necessary. For example:

  COPY B:LITES.COM A:

  ...copies LITES.COM from this disk to a disk in 
  drive A

  A:MONO

  ...loads the MONO program from this disk in drive A

  B:
  MONO

  ... loads the MONO program from this disk in 
  drive B by first changing to drive B.

Putting the programs in your DOS command PATH
---------------------------------------------
You can start the utility programs by either:

   Changing to the drive and directory they are
   in and then entering the relevant command.
   For example:

   C:
   CD \FREEBIE2
   DIRSTAT

or 

   Giving the relevant drive and directory 
   before the command name (DOS 3.xx and
   later only). For example:

   C:\FREEBIE2\DIRSTAT

However, it's easier if you make the programs
available from any disk and directory by 
ensuring that they are in your DOS command
search path, set with the PATH command. 

You can do this by either:

   Adding the directory the utilities are 
   in to your normal PATH command in AUTOEXEC.BAT.
   For example, if the PATH command in your 
   AUTOEXEC.BAT file reads

   C:\DOS;C:\UTILS;C:\WINDOWS

   you might change it to read

   C:\DOS;C:\UTILS;C:\WINDOWS;C:\FREEBIE2

   You should be careful when making changes to
   AUTOEXEC.BAT not to disturb other commands
   already in it. See your DOS manual for full
   instructions.

or

   Copying those programs you use often to a
   directory already in your PATH command. Many
   PCs already have a directory called C:\BIN or 
   C:\UTILS for small utility programs like these.
   For example, if you have a C:\BIN directory on 
   drive C and use the DIRSTAT program often, 
   copy it across with a command like this:

   COPY C:\FREEBIE2\DIRSTAT.EXE C:\BIN

Loading programs from AUTOEXEC.BAT
----------------------------------
Many of these utilities are designed to be loaded or
run whenever your PC is working by placing the
relevant command in the AUTOEXEC.BAT startup file.
Before doing this, we recommend that you test the
utilities out by loading them from the command line
as normal to ensure that they operate correctly
with your other software.

Please bear in mind:

* The program file must be available for
  AUTOEXEC.BAT to load it. If it is not
  in a directory already named in a PATH
  command earlier in AUTOEXEC.BAT, you 
  must give the drive and directory where
  it is stored (e.g. C:\FREEBIE2)
  or copy the file to the root directory
  of the hard disk.

* The order in which resident programs are
  loaded can be significant. If there appears
  to be a conflict, try re-ordering the lines
  in AUTOEXEC.BAT.

* If your AUTOEXEC.BAT file starts a particular
  program or menu system running, the command
  to do so will normally be the last in the
  file... add any commands to load TSR programs
  before it.

* Always keep a startup floppy to hand and
  a back-up copy of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
  so that if problems arise you can restore
  things to normal.

Using TSR (memory-resident) programs
------------------------------------
One of these utilities is a 'TSR' or memory-resident
program. DIGCLK will load into memory when first started
and remain there, either operating invisibly or 
waiting to be called up.

TSR programs are very popular and those on this disk
are carefully written and fully tested. However, the
design of DOS means that there is always a chance of
conflict between different TSR programs or between a
TSR and your main software. 

To avoid problems, please note:

1. You should carefully test any new TSR program
   on your system before using it while doing 
   your normal work.

2. Each TSR uses up memory. If you load too many
   at once, your normal software may not be 
   able to run or may perform poorly.

3. If you discover a conflict, loading the TSRs
   in a different order may resolve it.

4. You can change the 'hotkey' used to call up 
   many of the TSRs on this disk to avoid a conflict
   with your other programs. See the manual
   for the program in question and the notes and 
   tables below. 

3. Viewing and printing the documentation
-----------------------------------------
The documentation for these programs is supplied in 
a plain ASCII text file called FREEBIE2.TXT. You can 
view or print this file using normal DOS facilities 
(such as TYPE, MORE and PRINT) or third-party 
products such as most word processor or text editor 
programs.

However, since FREEBIE2.TXT contains multiple 
documents you will probably find it most convenient 
to view or print it using the DOC.EXE program 
supplied. 

To start DOC after installation, change to the 
drive and directory where you installed the disk to 
(e.g. enter C: then CD \FREEBIE2) and then enter 
DOC.

For full information on using DOC, see the document 
entitled DOC.

@@DIGCLK
DIGCLK v1.2 
Digital clock and timer 	    William Cravener
by -Swift-Ware-> Copyright (C) 1991-93
----------------------------------------------------

Purpose
-------
        
This little TSR was created because though the file 
manager displays the time at a glance none of my 
other often used programs do.  For example, I can 
pop up this little clock program within my editor 
and place it at the top where the options are 
displayed without interference with my editing. 
Also when I'm using my modem software and I'm busy 
browsing through the forums it's nice to see the 
amount of time I've been online.

This TSR once loaded into memory takes up around 
2000 bytes. Unlike many such digital popup clock 
programs DIGCLK can be easily turned ON or OFF by 
pressing a couple keys.

DIGCLK works in text mode and when the clock is 
turned ON then OFF it restores the previous screen 
characters.

DIGCLK also supports some graphic modes, but to 
keep the program small it does not save or restore 
the previous screen characters.

The program also includes a count down timer that 
can be set on the fly whenever needed from 0 to 99 
minutes. 

The clock can be set to be displayed at any corner 
of the screen and can be moved to any other corner 
by pressing the appropriate Hot Key.  Once this 
option is requested you press the letter "L" for 
upper left corner "l" for lower left corner "R" for 
upper right corner "r" for the lower right corner 
of your screen. The maximum lower corner Row can be 
set when the program is loaded using the /M switch 
followed by the bottom row value. Look over the 
examples listed below.

If you do place the clock at the bottom of the 
screen and the program you are within scrolls the 
screen up one line at a time (like when the prompt 
is at the bottom of your screen and you press 
enter) the clock will replicate itself up the 
screen. The real purpose of the move clock option 
is to enable placement of the clock where it can be 
best used without un-neccessary interference.  I 
place the clock at the top when using my editor 
because the editors option line is displayed there. 
I move the clock to the bottom of the screen when 
I'm usig my modem software because the option line 
is displayed at the bottom of the screen. 

Installation 
------------

Copy the file DIGCLK.COM into a directory on your 
hard disk, or run it from the floppy disk if you'd 
like.  Type DIGCLK to start the program.

The Very First time DIGCLK.COM is loaded a setup 
screen will be displayed. Press a number key option 
to choose the color for your clock display. Press 
A, B and C to change the default Hot Key 
combinations. If you wish to use the default Hot 
Keys just press the enter key after choosing a 
clock color option. The enhanced keyboard function 
keys F11 and F12 can also be used as Hot Keys if 
present.

When you use the  CTRL, SHIFT  or ALT key in your 
key combo, press that key first then press the 
second key. Be sure and follow this rule when you 
set your own Hot Key combination within the setup 
procedure.

After this initial setup procedure you must run the 
DIGCLK program again with any of the possible 
switches listed below. Running the program without 
switches will display the clock at the top right 
corner in blue on white when the default Hot Key is 
pressed [SHIFT-SHIFT].

The setup procedure can be recalled whenever you 
like to change colors or Hot Key assignments by 
using the /K switch.

In order to re-enable the default ON/Off 
[SHIFT-SHIFT] Hot Key combination you must use the 
/K switch to re-establish defaults. 

Command Line Switches
---------------------

    /H = This help screen.
    /O = Clock ON when loaded.
    /U = Unload clock program.
    /R = Right corner of screen.
    /L = Left corner of screen.
    /N = Disable Message output when loading.
    /S = Enables beep sound when Hot Key pressed.
    /K = Change clock Color and Hot Key assignments.
    /Mnn = Display at Bottom screen/(nn) = 25, 28, 43, 
           50. Default = 25.
    /Pnn = Beginning Alarm value/(nn) must be two 
           digits.  Default = 99.

The following example sets the clock display at the
top right corner with an alarm setting of 5 minutes.
   
          C:\ DIGCLK /R /P05

The following example sets the clock display to - 
ON - at the left corner-row 50 with an alarm 
setting of 10 minutes.

          C:\ DIGCLK /O /L /M50 /P10

The following example sets the clock display at the 
right corner row 43 with a default alarm setting of 
99 minutes with beep sounds enabled.

          C:\ DIGCLK /R /M43 /S

@@DIRSTAT
DirStat V1.00				Steve Dunn
Display comprehensive directory statistics
--------------------------------------------------

Purpose
------- 

DirStat is an easy to use utility that groups files 
in any given PATH by file EXTension and provides 
you with a means of analyzing  and manipulating 
such groups of files. 

DirStat V1.00 is written for a color monitor, 
and may not be entirely useful on monochrome 
monitors (some color combinations may be difficult 
to read).  If enough people request it, I'll offer 
a future version with the ability to switch between 
color and monochrome display attributes. 

Using DirStat 
------------- 

DirStat V1.00 has an internal limit of 1,560 files 
per PATH and / or subdirectory.  This limit is 
based on the programs internal design, and cannot 
be altered by the user.  

Syntax and Command Line Parms: 
-----------------------------
    
DirStat should be invoked from the DOS command line 
using the following syntax: 

DIRSTAT [/?] | [d:][\path\] [/25] [/43] [/50] [CE] [/NC] 

All the above command line parms are 
OPTIONAL, and are defined as follows: 

        /?  - If these characters appear anywhere 
on your command line, DirStat will display a help 
screen for its syntax similar to what appears on 
this page. 

        d:  - The DOS DRIVE that you want DirStat 
to start off reading. If you omit this, DirStat 
will use the current default DOS DRIVE. 

        \path\ - The DOS PATH you want DirStat to 
start off reading.  If you omit this, DirStat will 
use the current default DOS PATH. 
      - NOTE: Do NOT include a file 
     specification on the command line!  DirStat 
     automatically adds "*.*" at run time. 

        /25 - tells DirStat to start up in 
25-rows-per screen mode. 

        /43 - tells DirStat to start up in 
43-rows-per screen mode.  This requires an EGA or 
better. 

        /50 - tells DirStat to start up in 
50-rows-per screen display mode.  This requires an 
VGA or better. 

You can also alter the number of rows per screen 
page from within DirStat at any point by using the 
F9 menu option, which provides a menu of available 
screen modes. If you use more than one of the 
above, DirStat will pick the largest value for the 
number of screen rows. 

DirStat will not check to see whether you have the 
necessary hardware before attempting to set the 
mode you want.  If you don't have the physical 
hardware needed, you will get an error message. /CE 
- tells DirStat to clear the display screen on 
exit. Normally, DirStat leaves the last screen full 
of display data up when it exits. /NC - tells 
DirStat to NOT clear the screen on exit.

Note that the /25, /43, /50, and the /CE parms can 
also be specified in a DOS ENVIRON string using the 
DOS command, SET, as in the following example: 
             SET DIRSTAT=/CE/43 

which changes the default behavior of DirStat 
such that it starts up in 43 rows per screen mode, 
and clears the screen on exit. 

Parameters on the DOS command line will 
OVERRIDE the ENVIRON parms at run time, so that you 
do not need to alter your "DIRSTAT=" ENVIRON string 
merely to alter DirStat's default behavior. 
DirStat is fully menu driven - the available 
functions are always displayed on the right hand 
side of the display screen.  The following pages 
will detail what each menu function does. 

Detailed Instructions
---------------------
 
After invoking DirStat, a screen similar to 
the following will appear on the screen (the 
"Summary Data" screen):

(This screen will not display completely in the DOC 
viewer program.  If you print these instructions, 
you can see the entire display.)

Line 2: - The DRIVE and PATH currently being 
          displayed.  Note that the "*.*" is added 
          automatically for you and should NOT be 
          included on the DOS command line.

Line 3: - Summary data on the DRIVE and PATH 
          hilighted on line 2 -

    Files = total number of files in the DRIVE and 
            PATH, including Hidden, Read-Only, etc 
            files.
    EXTs  = the number of different and unique 
            filename EXTensions found in the DRIVE 
            and PATH.
    Bytes = the total number of bytes in all the 
            files found in the DRIVE and PATH (this 
            is the DOS File size, not the number of 
            bytes in occupied disk clusters).

Directly beneath this header data, on the left hand 
side of the screen, is summary data - one line for 
each different filename EXTension found.

The leftmost column (EXT) gives each individual EXT 
name. 
The next column (#) gives the number of files found 
in the DRIVE and PATH which have each EXTension. 

The next column (Smallest) gives the size, 
in bytes, of the smallest file bearing each 
individual EXTension. 

The next column (Biggest) gives the size, 
in bytes, of the largest file bearing each 
individual EXTension. 

The next column (Total) gives the total 
number of bytes found in all files bearing each 
individual EXTension. 

The last column (%) gives the percentage of 
bytes in all files of each individual EXTension 
compared to the total number of bytes found in ALL 
files. 

    Note that, originally, this data is unsorted - 
the EXT names are presented in the order in which 
they are encountered in the DOS directory listing.  
The menu on the right hand side of the screen 
allows you to re-arrange the summary data into more 
useful formats, as follows: 


        F1  - Sorts the display alphabetically by 
the EXT name 

        F2  - Sorts the display numerically by the 
COUNT (i.e., the number of files for each 
individual EXTension). 

        F3  - Sorts the display numerically by the 
size of the smallest file found for each individual 
EXTension. 

        F4  - Sorts the display numerically by the 
size of the largest file found for each individual 
EXTension. 

        F5  - Sorts the display by the total number 
of bytes for all files found for each individual 
EXTension. 

        F6  - Switches SORT order between ascending 
and descending. 

        F7  - Sends a copy of the summary data, as 
it is currently sorted, to a disk file (named 
"SUMMARY.DS1").  This file will be located in the 
DRIVE and PATH as displayed on line 2 of the screen. 

If a file named "SUMMARY.DS1" already exists, you 
will be given the option to either OVERWRITE the 
existing file or to append the current data onto 
the end of the existing disk file.

        F8   - Sends a listing of the display data, 
as currently sorted, to the printer at LPT1.
    
        F9  - Brings up a menu allowing you to 
change the number of screen rows currently being 
displayed.  The valid choices are 25, 43, or 50. 
        DirStat will NOT check your hardware to 
see if your system physically supports these screen 
modes.  (See also the section above on "Syntax and 
Command Line Parms".)

       F10 - Loads the file details for any EXTension 
you specify (see section below, "Detail Data" 

        PGUP, PGDN, HOME, END all move you around 
the display of summary data, assuming there is too 
much of it to fit on the screen at one time. 

        INS - Allows you to specify a different DOS 
DRIVE and PATH to read and work with. 

        ESC - Exits the DirStat program.

Detail Data:
------------
    
When you press F10 from the DirStat Main Menu, you 
are asked to specify one of the EXTension names 
shown in the leftmost screen display column. 
When you do, DirStat loads all the files (from the 
DRIVE and PATH shown on screen line 2), and 
presents you with a screen that shows the contents 
of the the individual directory.  The function keys 
work in a similar way to the section above.  If you 
hit ESC, you're returned to the summary screen.

Color Configuration 
-------------------

Colors are preconfigured, but may be changed to 
suit your taste in a configuration file, called 
DISKLEFT.CFG.  This file must reside in the 
directory in which you install DISKLEFT.EXE (if 
running under DOS 3 or later), or in the current 
directory (under DOS 2).

DISKLEFT.CFG is created if it is not found.  
DISKLEFT.CFG contains instructions to modify the 
default color set.  

This is the contents of the default file:


SETCOLOR
0,2,1,11,9,4,10,15,14

This is DISKLEFT's color configuration file.  Only 
the first two lines above are meaningful to the 
program.  You may change the values in them, using 
your favorite ASCII editor.  Follow the 
instructions below.  The values represent:

On line 1:
  SETCOLOR or SETMONO (if you want to force monochrome)

On line 2 (separated by commas, in the order listed):
  Common background color
  Fixed data areas
  SUBSTituted/ASSIGNed Drives
  Fixed drives
  Network drives
  Unavailable drives
  Floppy drives
  RAM drive
  Grand total (shown only if you have network drives)

The numbers on line 2 are color values and mean this:

  0  Black               8  Grey
  1  Blue                9  Light Blue
  2  Green              10  Light Green
  3  Cyan               11  Light Cyan
  4  Red                12  Light Red
  5  Magenta            13  Light Magenta
  6  Brown              14  Yellow
  7  White              15  Bright White

The only restriction imposed is the common 
background color cannot be the same as any of the 
other colors.  If this occurs, the default colors 
will be set.

NOTE:  If you use the SETMONO option to force 
monochrome (or the /MONO command line option), your 
color choices will be ignored.

DOC
Documentation viewer and printer            version 1.1
-------------------------------------------------------

Purpose
-------
DOC is a simple on-disk documentation viewer to present 
the manuals for the programs on this disk. It displays
a list of available documents down the left side of the
screen and shows the text of the currently selected 
document on the right. DOC has a simple printing ability 
which will produce a neat printout of a document so 
that you can have a manual to hand while working
with a program.

Running DOC
-----------
To start DOC, enter the command DOC. If you're looking
for a particular manual, you may also give it at the
command line. For example:

    DOC CDX 

starts DOC and asks it to look for the manual for the 
CDX program.

To select documents, use the up and down arrow keys to
move through the list on the left. Typing the initial
letter of a document name will jump directly to the
next matching document. Once you've found the document
you want, press TAB or the right arrow key to move
to the text of the document on the right. The cursor
keys (Home, End, Up, Down, PgUp, PgDn) will now move
through the text. Press the left arrow or TAB key 
again to go back to select other documents.

The DOC menu
------------
To call up DOC's menu, press the ESC key. DOC 
presents various options which you can select with
the cursor and Return keys or by pressing one of
the highlighted letters. The options will vary 
depending on your PC's configuration and the 
document files available.

Pressing ESC a second time cancels the menu.

Quitting DOC
------------
Choose the Quit option from the menu to leave
the DOC program and return to DOS.

Color Display Off
-----------------
Choose Color display off from the menu to ask
DOC to work in black-and-white. You may wish to
do this if you're using a laptop with an LCD screen
that doesn't show colors well or with some greyscale
or CGA composite video monitors. 

If you need to do this, you might also enter the
DOS command MODE BW80 before running DOC. This makes
DOC and many other programs start up in black-and-
white. Adding /M to the DOC command at the DOS prompt
also forces monochrome operation.

This menu option does not appear on PCs that do not
have a color capability.

Extended screen on
------------------
Choosing this menu option switches the display to
43 or 50 lines so that you can see more text without
scrolling. You can go back to the normal display by
choosing Extended screen off subsequently.

If you have a Super VGA display card and a program
to set extended text modes, such as 60 lines deep,
you might like to try setting an appropriate mode 
before starting DOC. DOC will usually operate with 
the non-standard format.

This menu option is only available on EGA or VGA
equipped PCs.

Fast screen on
--------------
This menu option only appears on PCs fitted with
CGA standard or equivalent displays. Normally the
DOC program deliberately slows down on this type
of display to prevent the screen flicker or 'snow'
that genuine IBM CGA displays (and some compatible
makes) can suffer from. If your system does not
suffer from snow, choose 'Fast screen on' for a 
faster screen display. There's no harm in trying
this option either way on your PC... snow does
no harm and you might prefer to have a fast display
that flickers to a slow one that doesn't.

Print Document
--------------
Choose this menu option to print the currently selected
document. A menu appears from where you can make four 
print settings, choose Go to start printing or Cancel 
to return to viewing documents. You may need to alter 
the settings to suit your system before choosing Go 
as follows: 

1. Output port

   This is the printer interface that DOC should print 
   the document to. By pressing O you can step through 
   the ports fitted to your computer. The default LPT1, 
   the first parallel printer port, is correct for 
   most PCs. DOC can work with a serial printer (COM1 
   or COM2) if you have one but you must make sure that 
   the port is correctly set up (e.g. with a command
   such as MODE COM1:9600,n,8,1,p) BEFORE running DOC. 
   X-On/X-Off handshaking is automatically provided 
   for serial printers.

   You can set the output port to "FILE". In this case, 
   DOC will ask for the name of a disk file when you 
   start printing and will then print to disk rather 
   than to a printer. If the file you name already 
   exists, DOC will append pages to it.

   Note that DOC will not print on PostScript printers.
   If you have one of these, you might like to use the 
   print to FILE option and then use a PostScript 
   conversion program or word processor to print the
   resulting file.

2. Lines per page

   This is the number of printable lines on each page 
   on your printer. DOC will print with this set 
   incorrectly but will not be able to put page breaks 
   and headers in the right place. The default is 66 
   lines for standard fan-fold paper. Other common
   values are 60, 62, 64 and 70.

   If you have difficulty with this setting, a 
   workaround is to set the form-length correctly on 
   your printer, enter a small number of lines per 
   page (e.g. 60) and then select the "Use form-feeds" 
   option.

3. Use form-feeds

   Set this option to Yes if you're using a LaserJet-
   style printer or any printer with the form-length 
   set correctly. DOC will work with this option set 
   to No by counting output lines but this is slower.

4. Pause between pages

   Set this option to Yes if you're feeding single-
   sheets to the printer... DOC will pause for you 
   to get the next sheet ready between each page. 

Working with document files
---------------------------
Document files should be kept in the same directory as 
the  DOC.EXE program. Under DOS 3.0 or later, DOC will 
find the files when it starts no matter which drive or
directory is current (with older versions of DOS, you 
should change to the relevant drive and directory before 
starting DOC).

Multiple document files
-----------------------
You can, if you like, place more than one document file 
in the DOC.EXE directory. DOC will display a menu of 
available files when first started and offer a 'Select 
document file' option on its menu to let you switch
between documents.

You can start DOC with a particular document file from
the command line by entering its name. For example:

    DOC FREEBIE2

You can also search for a particular program.
If you enter a command such as:

    DOC WINLIST

DOC will search each document file in turn looking for
a ZCOPY document. If you know which document file 
the document you want is in, you can reduce the search
time by telling DOC on the command line. For 
example:

    DOC FREEBIE2 WINLIST

This little utility was written by a "lazy" 
programmer type who likes to take short cuts 
whenever possible.                        

NOTICE:  This is Windows version 3.1 
specific, it will not run on any earlier 
versions of Windows!                                

Installing FASTEXIT
-------------------

Copy the files FASTEXIT.EXE and BWCC.DLL to your 
Windows directory.  

Using FastExit 
--------------

When you run FASTEXIT it will display an icon on 
your desktop that looks like a missile firing 
button.  A simple 'double-click' with the left 
mouse button will shut down Windows.  A 
'double-click' with the right mouse button 
will shut down Windows and then restart 
it.                                                        

                                                                          
A single click on the icon with either the left or 
right mouse button will cause FASTEXIT's popup menu 
to be displayed.  From there you can access the 
shut down options, a quick wallpaper changing 
utility and you can exit the FASTEXIT 
utility.            

Add FASTEXIT.EXE to your STARTUP group and every 
time that Windows starts up you will have a fast 
and easy method of getting back     
out.                                                               
                                                                          

Changing Wallpaper with FastExit
--------------------------------

One of the main reasons that I wrote this little 
utility was that I have a lot of colorful 
wallpapers.  To save space I was turning them into 
RLE files.  Unfortunately, the Windows ClipBoard 
won't let you select from RLE files but FastExit's 
popup memu will let you select from either BMP or 
RLE files to use as a Windows 
wallpaper!                                                         
                                                                          
There is no online help yet, but this is a fairly 
simple little utility.

"G" (short for "GOTO") 	             Timothy Campbell
An alternative to the DOS CD command.
-----------------------------------------------------

Purpose
-------

If you have  a lot of directories -- spread over a 
few drives, perhaps -- and you prefer  the familiar  
DOS prompt  to a "shell" program,  you've  probably 
wished that DOS had a  quick  way  to jump around,  
using  abbreviations  for directories.

After all, how many times can you type

  CD \TURBO\PASCAL\APPLIC\DATABASE\ACCOUNTG\PROG

before you get a little bit annoyed?

"G" lets you place  any number  of abbreviations  in 
a data file (G. TXT)  and then switch directories by 
providing the abbreviation.  For example, if you'd 
assigned the abbreviation "DAP" to the directory 
above, you would simply type

  G DAP

at the DOS prompt.


INSTALLATION
------------

Installation is a two-step process:


  1.  Copy the G.EXE program to a directory in your DOS PATH.

If you don't know what the PATH is, refer to 
your DOS manual's description of the "PATH" command.

  2.  Customize the data file (G.TXT).

For this, you will need a DOS text editor,  
such Edit in DOS 5 or 6.   You can  also use a  
programmer's editor  (such as the Turbo Pascal 
editor),  or a  word  processor  in  non-document 
(generic DOS text) mode.

The copy of G.TXT included in this package includes 
examples of how the "G" program is used at Pinnacle 
Software.  You can erase our definitions and replace 
them with your own.


USING "G"
---------


The format of the G command is:


  G [abbreviation]


For example,  if you have defined the abbreviation  
"XYZ",  you would jump to the directory 
corresponding to that directory by typing:


  G XYZ


If "G" can't find an abbreviation,  it will try to 
find a directory with that name on the current 
disk.   For example, if it could not find an 
abbreviation named XYZ, it would then try these 
names:

  XYZ
  \XYZ

If that doesn't work,  G will look for those 
directories on any hard or RAM disks on your 
system.   (To spare you having to  load a diskette,  
G does not do this extended search on drives A: and 
B:)

If all else fails, G displays an error message.

If you  omit the abbreviation  (i.e. just type G at 
the DOS prompt), "G" will display the list of 
abbreviations, along with their equivalent 
directories.

See also the section entitled  "THE DATA FILE"  for 
a note about  how you can even abbreviate your 
abbreviations!


THE DATA FILE 
-------------

The data file (G.TXT) contains a list of 
abbreviations and their corresponding 
directories.   There is no limit to the number of 
abbreviations you can place in  the file.  For ease 
of use  you may find it  advisable  to give several 
different abbreviations to the same directory.

Null lines and lines that start with semi-colons are 
ignored.

"G"  recognizes  partial  abbreviations.  For 
example,  if  you  defined  the abbreviation "XYZ", 
"G" would understand the shortened abbreviation 
"XY".  It would not, however, recognize "YZ";  
abbreviations are  compared  starting at the first 
character.

For proper processing of partial abbreviations,  
make sure you insert them in alphabetic (ASCII) 
order.  For example:


  A0     before A01
  A01    before AGE
  AGE    before BEAUTY
  BEAUTY before BEAUTY2


LIMITATIONS  
-----------

- No spaces are allowed in the abbreviation.

- The maximum length for an abbreviation is 10 
  characters.

- The maximum length for a directory name is 70 
  characters.

- You can rename the program G.EXE to something 
  else, but the data file must be named G.TXT.

- "G" does not mind if your text editor pads out 
  "white space" with the tab character (ASCII 09).


FILES 
-----

The "G" package contains the following files:

  FILE NAME    DESCRIPTION
     
  G.EXE        The "G" program
  G.TXT        The "G" data file -- this contains 
               the abbreviations you'll use

 For noncommercial purposes you are hereby given the 
right to use unmodified copies of  "G"  without 
paying a licensing fee.  If you wish to tailor  "G" 
to your own requirements,  order the  Turbo Pascal 
source code ($5).   When you order the source code 
you also obtain license to distribute the program in

RCL - Real Control Lite			Richard Nichols
View and Edit Windows Desktop 
-------------------------------------------------------

Copyright 1993, AT-Ware. All rights reserved.


Purpose
-------

Real Control Lite allows you to view and edit your 
Desktop without using the Control Panel.  This is a  
Windows 3.1 utility and will not run under prior 
versions of Windows.

RealCtrl was primarily written as an easy way to handle 
the inconvenience of dealing with the Control Panel. If 
you have a larger applications package to install it 
may take long enough for your screen save to be 
enabled. This would be fine except that everything slows 
way down when this happens! With RealCtrl one click of 
the mouse and you can disable the screen saver, for 
instance.

Have you ever wanted to change the fonts for your icon 
titles?  Well, even though you can't access it through the 
Control Panel you can change the  both the font and 
whether it is bolded or not for the icon titles in the 
WIN.INI file!

Here's what you can easily do with Real Control Lite:

	Turn the Warning beep off or on.

	Turn the Fast task switch off or on.

	Change the window border width.

	Change the grid granularity.

	Change the keyboard time delay .

	Change the keyboard repeat speed.

	Turn the screen saver off or on.

	Change the screen save time-out.

	Change the horizontal space between icons.

	Change the vertical space between icons.

	Turn the icon title wrap off or on.

	Select a different font for the icon titles.

Installation
------------

Copy the files RCL.EXE and RCL.HLP into your Windows 
directory.  Start Real Control by adding the program to 
an existing group, or by using File-Run.  


Using Real Control
------------------

The Desktop option of the Windows Control Panel is a 
modal (keeps control) dialog box which means you cannot 
immediately see the effects of the changes you have 
made. Not only do you have to exit the Desktop to 
enable any changes you make you must also remember what 
the settings were in case you wish to put them back!

RealCtrl [Lite] is a regular resizeable window that 
allows you to see any changes made the moment you make 
them. 

With RealCtrl [Lite] you not only get instant feed back 
to any changes made, the program also remembers the 
initial settings so you can put everything back by 
simply clicking on one button! 


Functions
---------

To see a brief description of any of the 12 functions 
RealCtrl [Lite] allows you to change simply place the 
cursor on the desired function and click to left mouse 
button once.

To change any function simply double click the left 
mouse button on the desired function. 

If the function is a simple OFF/ON type it will be 
toggled between OFF and ON each time you double click 
on it..

If you select a numeric functions an edit widow will 
appear over the displayed value. If you enter a value 
that is out of range then RealCtrl [Lite] will set the 
value to the minimum or maximum value allowed depending 
on whether the value you entered was either too high or 
too low.

If you select the font function the "Font" common 
dialog will appear displaying all of the fonts, styles, 
and sizes you can select from.

Beep
  This command either turns off or on the Windows 
  warning beep. 

Fast task switch	
  This command either turns off or on the Windows fast 
  task switcher (ALT-ESC).

Border width
  This command allows you to select the with for 
  non-dialog windows. The valid ranges are between 1 and 
  50. If you enter the value will be changed to 1 and if 
  you enter a value greater than 50 the number will be 
  changed to 50.

Grid granularity
  This command allows you to size and invisible "grid" 
  than the icons at the bottom of the screen are lined up 
  on. This value should be a multiple of 8. 

Keyboard delay
  This command sets the time delay Windows uses before 
  the key begins repeating. 

Keyboard speed 
  This command sets the speed with which keys are 
  repeated.

Screen saver
  This command turns off or on the screen saver.

Screen saver delay
  This command sets the number of minutes that must pass 
  with no keyboard or mouse activity before the screen 
  saver will be enabled.

Horizontal icon spacing
  This command sets the reserved space on each side of 
  an icon.

Vertical icon spacing
  This command sets the reserved space on the top and 
  bottom of an icon.

Wrap icon title
  This command tells Windows if an icon title that is 
  wider than the icon it should be wrapped around to 
  another line.

Icon title font
  This command allows you to select the font, size and 
  styles Windows will use when displaying and icon's 
  title. 

Note :
Even though RealCtrl [Lite] will show you the new icon 
title font the original font is not replaced until 
Windows is restarted. When you exit RealCtrl [Lite] 
you will be asked if you wish to have Windows
restarted. If you do not restart Windows you will not 
see a font change until the next time Windows is 
started.

Another Note :
RealCtrl [Lite] uses the new Windows font selection 
dialog in the COMMDLG.DLL. This dialog allows you to 
select an "Italic" or "Bold Italic" character style but 
when Windows load the desk top information contained 
in your WIN.INI file it will only allow the "Bold" 
style.

So if you select either the "Italic" or the "Bold 
Italic" style RealCtrl [Lite] will remove the "Italic" 
flag from your selection.

Command Buttons
---------------

RealCtrl [Lite] has the following Command buttons:

	Help	
This accesses the context sensitive help.

	About	
This displays the standard about box.

	Restore
This command restores the Desktop values RealCtrl 
[Lite] found when the program was executed. If you 
decide you don't like the changes you have made then 
simply click on restore and everything will be put back!

	Exit
This command will exit RealCtrl [Lite] and return 
control to the program that launched it. If you have 
selected a different icon title font you will be given 
a chance to change you mind before RealCtrl [Lite] 
makes the change.

You can either click on the button or press the "H" for 
"Help", "A"  for "About", "R" for "Restore", or "X" for 
"Exit". Do not use the "Ctrl" or "Alt" keys. 

RealCtrl [Pro] - What's the difference

@@TIMETOO
TimeToo Version 1.3.fzd                David B. Hughes
------------------------------------------------------

Greetings from David B. Hughes
&
Ziff-Davis Publishing Company
&
Wizard's Toybox, Inc.
249 S. Hwy 101 Su. 213
Solana Beach Ca 92075

Purpose
-------

TimeToo Version 1.3.zfd is a simple scheduler that 
will start a program or display a message (up to 
50!) on the day and time you select. The goals in 
the design of TimeToo were to keep it simple to use 
and to keep the size of the program small.

Installation
------------

First copy the file TIMETOO.EXE into a directory of 
your choice (the Windows directory is not a bad 
choice). Then using the program acting as 'Program 
Manager'  (we of course recommend OnFire! (tm) but 
then we wrote it...), run 'timetoo.exe'. The program 
should then be running as an 'Icon' on your desktop. 
You may wish to add the program to the 'startup 
group', to the 'run' or 'load' section in the WIN.
INI file (or your PM's equivalent). This will allow 
TimeToo to automatically startup when Windows starts.

Using TimeToo
-------------

With a mouse, double click on the program icon. This 
will bring up a dialog box that displays previously 
defined events (if any). Available buttons in this 
dialog box are:

Delete	- Deletes the highlighted event
Add	- Add a new event
Edit	- Edit the highlighted event
Run Now	- Run the event program or display the message
Done	- Returns you to the program Icon

When you choose the 'Add' (for new events) or 'Edit' 
(for previously defined events) button a dialog box 
will appear that allows you to edit the event. If 
you have already defined items, you can 'double 
click' with the mouse on any event of interest to 
edit it. Note that the program will create a new 
event as a 'Message' (you can change them at any 
time). Available controls in the Edit/Add dialog box 
are:

Select Day Group Box
	<  -	Go back to the previous event day
	>  -	Go forward to the next event day

Select Time Group Box
	AM -	The event will happen in the AM time 
                selected	
	PM -	The event will happen in the PM time 
                selected
	Hour
		< -	Go back 1 hour
		> -	Go forward 1 hour
	Minute
		< -	Go back 1 minute
		> -	Go forward 1 minute

Select Event Type Group Box

Message	- This event is a message
  First Edit Box - The Title of the message
  Second Edit Box - The Text of the message

Program	- This event is a program to run
   Prgm	- Browse hard drive to search for a program
     First Edit Box - The name of the program
     Work - Browse hard drive for work directory
     Second Edit Box - Connect to this work directory


When a message box pops up, you can click on the 
'SpaceBar' button with a mouse or press the spacebar 
on your keyboard and the message will then clear. 
Also note that there is a 'Snooze' button the will 
redisplay the message again at the current time + a 
default that you select. You can select the 'Snooze' 
time by entering Alt+S when the program Icon has 
focus or selecting the "Setup Snooze" from the 
system menu item.

Error Messages
--------------

If you mistype a program (or try and run a message 
event as a program) an error message will appear 
that will help you find why the program did not run.

It's that easy to use TimeToo! 

This version of TimeToo (1.3.fzd) is being offered 
as 'freeware' (it can not be sold nor do you need to 
register it). The ability to 'use' TimeToo Version 1.
3.fzd free of charge is our (David B. Hughes, 
Ziff-Davis Publishing Company and The Wizard's 
Toybox, Inc.) gift to you. However, there are many 
other programs around that are distributed as 
'shareware'. This means you get to try the program 
before you buy it! The authors of these program work 
hard to create these programs and spend considerable 
time supporting them. So, please help support the 
shareware concept and register those shareware 
programs that you use.

Enjoy!

Accelerator Keys:

When the Icon has 'focus' :

Alt+A	Displays the 'About' TimeToo box which list 
        program version and etc.

Alt+B	Toggles if a 'beep' is output when a Message 
        is displayed.

Alt+L	Displays the 'Defined Events' dialog box.

Alt+S	Select the 'Snooze' time for messages 
        (redisplay message 'x' minute from now).

Alt+T	Toggles if the time is updated under the 
        Icon. Note if the time is updated, the 
        Windows screen saver will not be displayed 
        when the timeout period is reached.

Purpose
-------

This program creates an alphabetical list of buttons 
out of your Program Manager groups in Windows.  


Using WinGroup
--------------

Copy the file GROUP.EXE to your Windows directory.  
WinGroup will create the file GROUP.INI in your 
Windows Directory.  WinGroup will read the Program 
Manager Groups and display them as an alphabetical 
list of buttons.  When a button is pushed an 
alphabetical button list of the items in that group 
will be displayed.  A push of a button will start 
the application.  Every time WinGroup is started it 
reads the groups so as to stay current.  

You might want to put WinGroup in your Startup group 
so that it automatically generates the lists as soon 
as you begin a Windows session.
