Filename : EDDY.USE
; EDDY.USE - Defines "Point-n-Shoot" commands for EDDY
;
; This file is an example, illustrating how the EDDY.USE file may be
; set up to define the programs to be executed by EDDY in response to
; the "Point-n-Shoot" commands - [Shift+F9] and [Shift+^F9].
; Refer to EDDY.DOC, Section 14.2 for details.
;
; You should build your own EDDY.USE file (with any editor or word
; processor - even EDLIN! - that can create ASCII-only text files), to
; define the types of files and the programs you use most frequently.
;
; Lines beginning with semi-colon are COMMENTS ONLY, ignored by EDDY.
; They are included here to only clarify the examples. Command lines
; have a leading blank, for readability only - the blank isn't required.

; Use IBM Personal Editor, with 'assembler' key profile
*.ASM C:\PE\PE2 /PC:\PE\ME.PRO %
;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; Use IBM Personal Editor, with 'C'/'C++' key profile
*.C C:\PE\PE2 /PC:\PE\CE.PRO %
*.H C:\PE\PE2 /PC:\PE\CE.PRO %
*.CPP C:\PE\PE2 /PC:\PE\CPE.PRO %
;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; Use PKZMENU (PKWare's ZIP file manager) on .ZIP files
*.ZIP X:\UTIL\PKZMENU %
;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; In the following lines, the "|" in the first position means...
; ...pause after executing, to allow review of screen display
;
; Use 'View' option of LHA (from Haruyasu Yoshizaki) on .LZH files
|*.LZH X:\UTIL\LHA V %
; Use 'View' option of PKARC on .ARC files
|*.ARC X:\UTIL\PKARC V %
; Assume "EXE" is self-extracting archive (else why use [s-F9]?)
|*.EXE X:\UTIL\FV V %
;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; Use Bob Montgomery's picture file viewing program on .GIF files
*.GIF X:\UTIL\VPIC %
;
;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; Use the A.S.P. "CATALOG" program to update catalog data files
*.DTA A:\CATALOG %
;
;*********************************************************************
; After defining all the file extensions you want to associate with a
; specific program to use with "Point-n-Shoot", you may want to
; define a default for any other types of files.
;*********************************************************************
; Use IBM Personal Editor, with word processor key profile...
; ...for any files not explicitly defined above
*.* C:\PE\PE2 /PC:\PE\WP.PRO %
;
;*********************************************************************
; Finally, to use Point-n-Shoot on ALL matching files in the working
; directory (except any tagged "Ignore"), put a "^" at the beginning
; of the line. If you also put a "|" after the "^", EDDY will pause
; before resuming control, to give you a chance to look at the screen
; before continuing.
;*********************************************************************
; Assemble all .ASM files (except 'ignored' files), pausing...
; ...after each file is assembled - to check any error messages
^| *.ASM D:\MASM /N/ID:\ %,NUL,D:\;
;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; Print all .LST files, without pausing between files
^ *.LST C:\DOS\PRINT %

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
