Special Requirements: None.                                             
                                                                        
Finally, a nice looking disk cataloger.  PMCAT+ is designed to allow you
to arrange, track, and sort the file information DOS stores in the      
directories of any hard drive or multiple diskettes.                    
                                                                        
PMCAT+ stores files in memory as it reads them, in the form of a 'linked
list' of files.  Therefore, each file and directory has 'pointers' (an  
address of 4 bytes, in RAM, which tells PMCAT+ where the record for that
file or directory is, physically).  Every record (file, directory, or   
disk) has pointers as a portion of itself which tell where and what it  
is linked to--is it a subdirectory? are there subdirectories stemming   
from it? is it a disk? what files are on the disk? etc.                 
                                                                        
This detailed linking makes file searching and organization a snap.  You
can keep track of your disks, every file on those disks, or the layout  
of your hard drive.  Categorize and organize your collection however you
want, with as much detail as you need.  Although PMCAT+ was originally  
intended to be used with small to moderate (50 - 200 diskettes)         
catalogs, it is quite capable of managing truly huge diskette           
collections.                                                            
                                                                        
PMCAT+ offers a DOS shell for command execution and has the ability to  
read, de-archive, and catalog files that have been archived in ARC, ZIP,
LZH, and PAK formats.
