---------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking ahead to future releases.

I have many ideas to be incorporated into future releases.
But, I'm really concerned with what you, the users of QuickDir want.
Version 2.0 will be my rewrite version. There may be intermediate
1.X versions, but 2.0 will be a complete internal rewrite of
QuickDir, it may take a while to finish. Now is the time to make
suggestions so I can add them to V2.0.

Please fill out the survey when you register. That is the only way
I can add to QuickDir the options you need.

I'm planning on adding CD Rom Extensions and Logical EMS/DISK
swapping to release 1.3 or 1.4.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. 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/
