Introduction to Swiss Army Shell
--------------------------------

Swiss Army Shell is designed to make management of hard
disks easy. It provides you with an organized view of the
directory structure on your disk, and can manage up to 20 logical
drives.
Swiss Army Shell makes copying, deleting, moving, and
archiving files simple. You also have options for listing and
editing text files or executing other programs with just a few
keystrokes or mouse clicks.
It has been designed to interface with the PKPAK/PKUNPAK and
PKZIP/PKUNZIP archive systems by Phil Katz. You will need one or
the other of these packages to use the Archive Management
functions, but Swiss Army Shell will work fine without these
programs.
Swiss Army Shell has a point and shoot user interface which
allows you to tag files for copy, move, delete, and archive
operations. Operations may be performed on single files without
tagging. The mouse interface (new with version 2) allows you to
handle most operations without touching the keyboard.
Throughout this document I refer to Swiss Army Shell by
using the acronym "SAS". This is done simply to avoid typing the
full name each time, and is not intended to associate Swiss Army
Shell with the Statistical Analysis System, which is a product of
the SAS Institute in Cary, North Carolina.

What's New with Version 2
-------------------------

Mouse Support !
---------------
Version 2 has added a completely new mouse interface, as
well as an alternative menu driven keyboard interface. The same
commands used in version 1.1 are still available as shortcut
keys, but you may now do everything from menus if you wish.
The Master Menu may be popped up and down by pressing F10,
or the right mouse button.

Fast Loading !
--------------
Swiss Army Shell now stores a file named SASDRV.TRE in the
root of each hard drive. If this file is found SAS will load the
directory tree from that file rather than scanning the drive,
making initial startup MUCH! faster. When you first start this
version you should change to each hard drive so that SAS can scan
and write the .TRE file. After each drive has been scanned and
the .TRE file written, SAS will load and change drives VERY fast!

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 5





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------



* Note : If you add or delete directories while NOT inside SAS,
the next time you start SAS you should Rescan (ALT R) the drive
so that the .TRE file will be updated. SAS has no way to detect
changes since it was last run, and will not know the directories
have changed if you don't do a Rescan!
If you start SAS while in an unrecognized directory, the
drive will automatically be rescanned.

Support for PKPAK and PKZIP !
-----------------------------
Swiss Army Shell now supports PKPAK/PKUNPAK and
PKZIP/PKUNZIP. PKARC/PKXARC are no longer supported, so you will
need one or both of these programs to use Archive Management.

Point and Shoot at Another Drive !
----------------------------------
Swiss Army Shell now allows you to point and shoot at
directories on other drives for Copy Tagged, Copy Directory, and
Archive Extraction operations.
When you invoke Copy Tagged Files or Extract Archive you may
now press Alt D or click on the Directory Window title block, and
select a drive (Escape will abort the operation). If SASDRV.TRE
exists on the drive, a tree diagram will be quickly loaded, and
you may point at the desired directory with the directory cursor
keys.
If SASDRV.TRE does not exist you will have options to scan
the drive or abort the operation. Pressing or clicking on
the highlighted directory will copy the tagged files to the
directory highlighted on the tree.

More Execution RAM !
--------------------
Swiss Army Shell 2 has added the capability to swap itself
to disk or EMS memory during program execution. Through the
Configuration Option you may select whether or not to swap for
each program.
Swap to Disk/EMS capability is provided by the generosity of
TurboPower Software. Swiss Army Shell uses the ExecSwap unit
published in the April 1989 issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal. I can't
give enough thanks to TurboPower for releasing this unit !

-----------------------------------------------------------------


Configuration Capability !
--------------------------
Swiss Army Shell now allows you to configure the following
items :
- Select your favorite File Listing Program
- Select your favorite Editor
- Select your favorite Word Processor
- Select your favorite Colors for All Windows
- Enter up to 10 DOS Command lines for Quick Execution
- Pick PKPAK or PKZIP as your Default Archive Program
- Exit Confirmation
- Select Swap to Disk/EMS for EACH program you run
- Toggle Sound On or Off

Other New Features and Improvements
-----------------------------------
Other new features in Swiss Army Shell include :

- Copy a directory and all subdirectories to another
location.

- Complete control over file attributes.

- Find File speed has DOUBLED !

- Find Files across MULTIPLE drives !

- Support for PKZFIND !

- Improved and more powerful Delete Directory.


It's a LOTTA work!
------------------
I estimate that I now have at least 1000 hours work invested
in Swiss Army Shell through version 2.4. Version 2.4 is freely
distributed without restriction. The registration fee has been
reduced to $20 to encourage registrations.

Registration Benefits
---------------------
The registration fee for Swiss Army Shell is $20. Anyone
who registers will receive a disk containing the next update to
Swiss Army Shell.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 8





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Software Requirements
---------------------
Swiss Army Shell runs under MSDOS or PCDOS 2.0 or higher.
DOS versions below 3 will not be able to rename directories. The
only support files needed are KEYHELP.SAS and MOUSHELP.SAS.
These files must be in the PATH for help to be available.
External programs are called to handle Archive Management, file
listing, and file editing functions, and they MUST be in the
current PATH for those functions to work.
Swiss Army Shell makes working with archive files easy. In
order to make use of the archive management features in SAS, you
will need the following archive management programs:

PKPAK.EXE
PKUNPAK.EXE
PKFIND.COM
PKZIP.EXE
PKUNZIP.EXE
PKZFIND.EXE

If you work only with .ARC files you will not need PKZIP or
PKUNZIP.
Swiss Army Shell also makes it easy to list and edit files.
The configuration menu gives you the ability to choose your
favorite file listing and editing programs. The default list
program is set up as LIST.COM which is intended to call Vernon
Buerg's popular LIST program. The default Editor and Word
Processor will be set up as EDLIN.COM. You should use the
Configuration Option to set up your own choices for LIST, EDIT,
and Word Processing programs.
PKPAK, PKZIP and LIST are ShareWare programs and can usually
be obtained from Compuserve and most bulletin boards. If you use
these programs you should support the authors and register them.
I also recommend that you obtain a keyboard repeat rate
enhancer such as QUICKEYS.COM or TURBOKEY to speed up cursor
movement. Quickeys is a program from PC Magazine and is free.
The BROWSE program from PC Magazine is also an excellent file
lister.
Although Swiss Army Shell is specifically designed to
interface with PKPAK, PKUNPAK, PKFIND, PKZIP, and PKUNZIP, these
programs are not required. If these programs cannot be found,
the commands that call them simply will not work.







-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 9





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Program Limits
--------------
Swiss Army Shell is currently limited to 100 directories,
512 files per directory, and a directory nesting depth of 7 below
the root. The only reason for these limits is my attempt to keep
memory requirements within reason. If you become a registered
user and need a version with higher limits, I will be happy to
supply you with a customized version upon request.
Both color and monochrome adapters are supported.
Monochrome adapters will be automatically detected. Hercules
adapters must be in text mode for SAS to work properly, and will
be treated as standard monochrome adapters. If you have a color
adapter driving a composite monochrome monitor, you may append
"/m" to the invocation line to get the monochrome color setup.
Swiss Army Shell 2.4 requires 210K of free RAM. However,
the addition of swap to disk/EMS capability reduces this
requirement to under 67K during external program execution.
Although the size of the executable file has doubled since
version 1.1, version 2.4 actually allows external programs more
free RAM in which to execute when swapping is enabled.

Compatibility
-------------
Swiss Army Shell should run on any PC compatible. It was
developed on a 5 year old Columbia MPC with CGA, 512K RAM, AST
Six Pack Plus, Seagate ST225 20 meg hard disk, and a 10 + 10
Bernoulli Box. It is compatible with SideKick, and should be
compatible with any TSR that does not preempt its command keys.
The mouse interface requires that a Microsoft Mouse
compatible drive be installed. Swiss Army Shell 2.4 has been
tested with Microsoft, Mouse Systems, Logitech, and Keytronics
mice.
The Turbo Power Software ExecSwap unit has been tested with
some extremely large programs including AutoCad, Word Perfect, PC
Paint, and Procomm Plus. It has proven extremely reliable, and
also extremely fast when EMS memory is available.
Version 2 has an annoying habit of leaving mouse cursor
blocks when restoring screen segments on some monitors. This
does not affect program operation in any manner.

-----------------------------------------------------------------


Installing Swiss Army Shell
---------------------------

* Note : Throughout this document means to press the return
key and click means to position the mouse cursor on the item
mentioned and press the left mouse button.

If you are an experienced PC user you may want to skip this
section. Just make sure that SAS.EXE, SAV.EXE, SASCFG.EXE,
KEYHELP.SAS, MOUSHELP.SAS and the external programs mentioned in
the Software Requirements section above are in the current PATH
and go to work. You can get help at any time by pressing H,
clicking the mouse on the word Help at the lower right corner of
the screen, or selecting Misc from the Master Menu.
I am not going to attempt to explain the PATH statement or
how DOS finds the programs used by SAS. I will simply describe in
"cookbook" fashion how to set up your disk to work with SAS.
Although a hard disk is not required to use SAS, if you
don't have one then you probably don't need this program. The
following instructions assume you have at least one hard disk
configured as drive C.

1) Boot your computer and wait for the C:> prompt.
2) Enter TYPE AUTOEXEC.BAT .
3) Look for a line beginning with the word PATH. if you see
this line you will notice one or more directory names
separated by semicolons. For example :

PATH C:\;C:\DOS;C:\UTIL

If AUTOEXEC.BAT does not exist then skip to step 7 below.

If AUTOEXEC.BAT does exist but does not contain a PATH
statement, use a word processor or editor to add the PATH
statement shown in step 7.

4) Decide which directory you want to use to store SAS (I
use \UTIL) and change to it. For example enter:

CD\UTIL

5) Place the disk containing SAS.EXE, SASCFG.EXE, SAV.EXE,
KEYHELP.SAS, and MOUSHELP.SAS in drive A and enter
COPY A:*.*
DOS will copy the files to your hard disk.

6) If you have obtained PKPAK,PKUNPAK,PKFIND,PKZIP,PKUNZIP and
LIST, copy these programs to the same directory. If you have

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 11





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


word processing and editing programs you wish to run from SAS,
you will need to set them up using the Configure SAS option
explained later in this document.

7) If AUTOEXEC.BAT does not exist then:
a) Go to your computer store and shoot the salesman who
sold you your computer.
b) Boot your computer, wait for the C:> prompt, and
enter the following keystrokes exactly as they appear
below:

COPY CON AUTOEXEC.BAT
PATH C:\;C:\SAS
Z

( Z means to hold the control key down while pressing Z)
( means press the Enter or Carriage Return key. )

DOS should respond with the message "1 File(s) copied"
and you will see C:> again.
c) Enter MD SAS then CD SAS
d) Follow steps 5 and 6 above.
e) Reboot your computer.

Swiss Army Shell may now be run from any drive or directory
by entering SAS. If you don't understand these instructions
then you may call me at 205-655-3926. I will be happy to talk you
through the procedure.

Included Files
--------------
This disk should contain the following files:

SAS.EXE
SAS24.DOC
SASCFG.EXE
SAV.EXE
KEYHELP.SAS
MOUSHELP.SAS
SAV.DOC
README.SAS

There will also be one or more files named UPDATE. These files
contain revision history since version 2.0. You should check the
end of the file for the latest features and bug fixes.




-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 12





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Starting Swiss Army Shell
-------------------------
Swiss Army Shell may be started from the DOS command prompt
by entering:

SAS [drive:path] [/m]

If the optional drive:path is specified, SAS will change to
that drive and directory and look for the file SASDRV.TRE in the
root directory of the drive. If SASDRV.TRE is found, SAS will
immediately display the directory tree and the files in the
current directory. If SASDRV.TRE is not found, the disk will be

automatically scanned. If the drive:path is invalid, the current
drive and directory will be used.
Monochrome adapters will be automatically detected. The
optional "/m" switch will start SAS with the monochrome color
scheme even if you are using a color adapter. If you are using a
color adapter and a composite monochrome monitor you may prefer
this black and white mode to the normal color scheme.
The video mode is not checked during startup. If you have
an EGA or VGA you should insure that it is in 25 line mode before
starting SAS. Hercules adapters should be in text mode.

Quitting
--------
Swiss Army Shell has three keyboard exit options. Q will
exit in the current directory. ALT Q will exit in the original
drive and directory from which you started. Escape exits in the
directory under the directory cursor.
There is a fourth option for mouse users. Pressing both
left and right mouse buttons simultaneously (called a chord) will
exit in the current directory (same as Q). Swiss Army Shell
usually waits until it detects a button release before taking
action, so you should press and hold both buttons, then release
them simultaneously.

The Directory Tree File
-----------------------
Each time you quit or change drives, a file named SASDRV.TRE
will be written in the root directory of the current drive. This
file contains the directory tree of the current drive. If this
file is found during startup or drive changes the tree file is
loaded rather than scanning the drive. This make startup much
faster.
Version 2.4 will automatically detect incompatible tree
files from earlier versions, and automatically rescan.
Though SAS is not network aware, it will work with may
networks. This has caused some problems in the past where a

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 13





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


network drive may have a different drive letter depending on
which drop it is accessed from. SAS stores the drive letter in
the .TRE file, and when the tree file is loaded from a remote
drop on the network, the root directory on the tree diagram would
not reflect the correct drive letter as recognized by the remote
machine. Version 2.4 will now show the correct drive letter in
the root directory.

* Note : Tree files will not be created on drive A or B. If you
use removable media hard drives such as Bernoullis, you
should rescan those drives each time you change
cartridges.


Using Swiss Army Shell
----------------------
When you run Swiss Army Shell, three windows will be
displayed. If SAS cannot find SASDRV.TRE it will scan the
current disk, then display a tree diagram of your directory
structure in the upper left window, with the current directory
highlighted. The files in the current directory will be
displayed in the upper right window, and statistics about the
disk, current directory, and file under the cursor will be show
in the small window across the bottom of the screen.
The upper left window is called the Directory Window. The
upper right Window is called the Files Window, and the bottom
window is called the Statistics Window.

Mouse Usage
-----------
The mouse will display a character sized block called the
mouse cursor. This cursor will be visible except when the mouse
is being used to select from menus. The usual selection
procedure is to point by placing the mouse cursor on an item and
pressing, then releasing the left mouse button. The left mouse
button may also be used like the Enter key to accept default
choices in data entry windows.
The right mouse button Escapes from menus and other types of
windows. It is also used to toggle the Master Menu on and off.

The Directory Window
--------------------
The Directory Window depicts the subdirectories on your
disk. All first level subdirectories are shown to branch from
the root ("\") directory, with child directories shown below
their parents.
To change directories you must move the Directory Cursor to
your destination directory and select it. Once the directory is

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 14





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


selected it will be scanned, and its files displayed in the Files
Window.
The Directory Cursor may be moved with the keyboard or
mouse. The keyboard commands are shown here :

F1 or Ctrl PgUp Moves up one directory
F2 or Ctrl PgDn Moves down one directory
F3 or Ctrl Home Moves to the root directory
F4 or Ctrl End Moves to the last directory
F5 or Ctrl Left Arrow Moves to first directory in the window
F6 or Ctrl Right Arrow Moves to the last directory in the
window
Selects the directory under the cursor

To move the Directory Cursor with the mouse, point the mouse
cursor to the desired directory and press the left button once.
When the Directory Cursor has been moved, the directory may be
selected by a click on the highlighted directory.
There are several special areas in the Directory Window that
may be used in conjunction with the mouse. These areas and their

The Directory Cursor is free to move around anytime, but it
is important to note that a directory does not become the current
directory until it has been selected by pressing or clicking
on it while it is highlighted by the Directory Cursor.

Files Window
------------
The Files Window shows the files in the current directory.
There may be several pages of files, and Swiss Army Shell allows
up to 512 files in a directory with 60 files per page. Note that
this may not necessarily be the same directory under the
Directory Cursor.
The current file will be highlighted by the Files Cursor,
which is two triangles with the file name bracketed between them.
The Files Cursor may be moved by the keyboard or the mouse. The
keyboard commands for moving the Files Cursor are shown here :


-----------------------------------------------------------------

Up Arrow Move up one file
Down Arrow Move down one file
Left Arrow Move left one column
Right Arrow Move right one column
Home Move to the first file
End Move to the last file
PgUp Displays the previous page
PgDn Displays the next page

If there is no next page PgDn moves to the last file on the page.

To move the File Cursor with the mouse, move the mouse
cursor to the desired file and click the left mouse button. The
File Cursor will move to that file, and the file will be tagged
(or untagged if it was already tagged).
There are several special areas in the Files Window that may
be used in conjunction with the mouse. These areas and their
functions are shown here:


Upper Left Corner First File (same as Home)
Lower Left Corner Last File (same as End)
Upper Right Corner Page Up
Lower Right Corner Page Down

Files may be tagged for Group File operations. Tagged files
will be shown in reverse video. File Tag Status may be toggled
on or off by clicking on a file. If the file is already tagged it
will be untagged, or vice versa.
Multiple files may be tagged or untagged by clicking and
holding the left button on a file that is NOT under the cursor,
then dragging the mouse. Note that dragging the cursor across an
untagged file will tag it, and dragging it across a tagged file
will untag it.
CAUTION : If the mouse is moved too fast, not all files
crossed will be detected.

The Statistics Window
---------------------
The Statistics Window takes up the bottom 3 lines on the
screen and displays information about the current drive,
directory, and file.
Displayed at the left end of the window will be the current
drive size, and the amount of free and used space on the drive.
The top line in the rest of this window shows the number of
files, the number of bytes, and the number of bytes tagged in the
current directory.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 16





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


The bottom line shows information about the file under the
File Cursor. The file name, extension, attributes, date, and
time are displayed under appropriate headers.
There is one special area in the Statistics Window that is
used in conjunction with the mouse. Clicking on the word Help in
the lower right corner will display the Mouse Help File. The
Keyboard Help file may be displayed by pressing H.

Yes-No Questions
----------------
Whenever you are asked a yes-no question, you may press "Y",
"N" or Escape. If you have a mouse, the window that appears will
contain buttons that will highlight when the mouse cursor is on
them. To answer Yes or No, move the mouse cursor to the
appropriate button and press the left mouse button. Pressing the
right mouse button or Escape will return a No answer.


Swiss Army Shell Tutorial
-------------------------
This section will give you a short introduction to the
features in Swiss Army Shell.
If you have a mouse, you make sure that the Microsoft
compatible mouse driver is loaded. If you have a Microsoft
Mouse, just run MOUSE.COM. If you have a Mouse Systems mouse,
run MSMOUSE.COM. For additional details on setting up and using
your mouse you should consult your mouse user's manual.
Start up Swiss Army Shell by typing SAS and pressing the
Enter key. The three windows described above will be displayed.
This is called the main screen.
The first thing you should do is press the F3 key then the
Enter key. This will make the root directory current for the
following exercise.
Press the F10 key a few times. You will see a horizontal
bar at the top of the screen appear and disappear. This is
called the Master Menu, and the words appearing on this line
represent submenus.
With the Master Menu visible, press the left and right arrow
keys. You will see each submenu title highlighted as the Menu
Cursor (sometimes called the Menu Bar) moves.
If you have a mouse, click the right button several times.
When you are in the main screen the right button toggles the
Master Menu on and off just like the F10 key. With the Master
Menu visible move the mouse left and right. The Menu Cursor will
move just as if you were moving the arrow keys.
Move the Menu Cursor so that it is on the left most item,
"DiR". This is the Directory submenu. There are several ways to
select a submenu, and they are described below.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 17





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


The fastest way to select from any menu is using the menu
HOT keys. Notice that each item on the menu has a capital letter
displayed in a color or intensity different from the rest of the
line. This is the HOT key for that item.
The HOT key for the "DiR" submenu is "R". If you press "R",
the Master Menu will disappear and the Directory Menu will
appear. The Directory Menu allows you to Add, Delete, Rename,
and Copy subdirectories. This menu also contains the Rescan
Drive command.
Notice that the items in the Directory Menu also have HOT
keys. Now press "A" to select Add Directory. A small window
will appear in the center of the screen requesting a directory
name. Type "abc1" and press the Enter key. The subdirectory
"abc1" will be created using the current directory as the parent.
The Directory Menu has now disappeared, and the Master Menu
is visible again. Some menus are "sticky", meaning that they
remain on screen until you exit the menu using Escape or the
right mouse button. Other menus will return you to the Master
Menu or the main screen. Whether a menu is "sticky" or not
depends on whether Swiss Army Shell must return to the main
program loop to execute the operation.
With the Master Menu visible, move the Menu Cursor to
"Drive". Another way to select menu items is with the arrow and
Enter keys. With "Drive" under the menu cursor press Enter. The
Drive Menu will appear showing a list of the disk drives in your
computer.
If you have more than one hard disk in your computer you
should select a different drive each time during this part of the
tutorial so that Swiss Army Shell can scan and create a .TRE file
for each drive. If you have only one drive you should simply
select drive C each time.
There are several different ways to display the Drive Menu.
Press the F10 key or the right mouse button until the Master Menu
is not visible. From the main screen you can simply press "D" to
pop up the Drive Menu. Once the Drive Menu is displayed you can
select a drive using the HOT key, the arrow and Enter keys, or
move the mouse and select with the left mouse button. The
fastest way to change drives is to press "D", then the letter of
the desired drive. For example, pressing "DDDCDE" would rapidly
change to drive D, drive C, and drive E in that order.
You may also pop up the Drive Menu by placing the mouse
cursor on the Directory Window title block (point to the word
"Drive") and click the left mouse button.
The final way to bring up the Drive Menu is by toggling the
Master Menu on with F10 or the right mouse button, and selecting
Drive.
Now we will try moving around in your subdirectories. First
press F10 or the right mouse button so that the Master Menu is

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 18





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


not visible. Try pressing the F1 (or Ctl PgUp) and F2 (or Ctl
PgDn) keys a few times. You will see the Directory Cursor move
down when you press F2, and up when you press F1. F3 (or Ctl
Home) and F4 (or Ctl End) act like Home and End keys, and will
place the cursor on the root directory or last directory. F5 (or
Ctl Left) and F6 (or Ctl Right) will position the cursor to the
first and last directories on the current page.
Using the F1 and F2 keys (or Ctl PgUp and Ctl PgDn),
position the cursor on any directory other than the current one
and press the Enter key. The Files Window title block will
change to show the name of the new directory, and the files in
that directory will appear in the Files Window.
If you have a mouse, move the mouse cursor to another
directory and press the left mouse button. The Directory Cursor
will move to that directory. Try moving the Directory Cursor
several times, making sure that you do not click on a directory
that is actually under the cursor. Now try clicking on a
directory that IS under the cursor. This will have the same
affect as pressing the Enter key.
Now move the mouse cursor to the upper left corner of the
Directory Window and click the left button. The upper left
corner acts like the F3 (or Ctl Home) key, and the directory
cursor will be placed on the root directory. If you click on the
lower left corner it will place the cursor on the last directory.
Try clicking on the upper and lower right corners. These corners
act like the F5 and F6 keys (or Ctl PgUp and Ctl PgDn), and if
you have many directories on your disk it will move the cursor up
or down a page (20 directories) at a time.
Now try placing the mouse cursor on the top and bottom bars
or lines of the Directory Window, being sure to avoid the title
block. Press the left button and hold it. The Directory Window
will rapidly scroll up or down as long as you hold the button.
Now we will add some temporary directories to practice file
operations. Press F3 or click on the upper left corner of the
Directory Window to move the cursor to the root directory.
Earlier we created a directory named "abc1" by using the "DiR"
submenu through the Master Menu. Swiss Army Shell was originally
written as a completely command driven program with very few
menus. Those commands are still available, and are now called
"shortcut" keys. The shortcut keys are completely described in
the Swiss Army Shell Commands section of this document.
Press the Insert key. Insert is the shortcut key for the
Add Directory command. The Add Directory window will pop up and
ask for a directory name. Type in "abc2" and press Enter.
"abc2" will be added to the tree diagram directly under "abc1".
Now move the Directory cursor to "abc2" and press the Delete
key. The directory you just created will be removed. If the
directory is empty and is not the current directory, it will be

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 19





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


removed immediately. If the directory is current or contains
files or subdirectories, you will be asked to confirm TWICE that
you REALLY want to do it.

CAUTION : The Delete Directory command is extremely powerful. If
you answer yes to both confirming questions, the
directory under the cursor and ALL its subdirectories
will be removed.

As you can see, moving around your directory tree and
inserting and deleting directories is easy. Now we will do some
file operations.
Make sure you are in the main screen, with only the three
main windows visible. As long as you are in the main screen you
can use the arrow keys to move the File Cursor. Swiss Army Shell
can handle a maximum of 512 files in a single directory. If
there are too many files for one page, PgUp and PgDn will allow
you to browse through the files. Home or End position the File
Cursor to the first or last file.
If you have a mouse, place the mouse cursor on the lower
left corner of the Files Window and click the left button. The
lower left corner acts like the End key and moves the File Cursor
to the last file. The upper left corner acts like the Home key,
and the upper and lower right corners act like the PgUp and PgDn
keys.
Place the mouse on a file and click the left button. The
File Cursor will jump to that file, and the file will appear in
reverse video. Files shown in reverse video are tagged. If you
click on a tagged file it will change to untagged and normal
video. Now place the mouse cursor on an untagged file that is
NOT under the Files Cursor. When you press the left button, hold
it and move the mouse up or down.
The File Cursor will follow the mouse as long as it remains
inside the Files Window. Whenever the cursor crosses a file, the
Tag Status of the file will change. If the file is tagged it
will be untagged, and vice versa. This feature is handy for
tagging groups of file.
Now make sure that you have some files tagged, then pop up
the Master Menu and select "Group". The Group Menu allows you to
copy, move, delete and archive tagged files. The menu also has
options for tagging and untagging ALL files in the current
directory.
Select Copy Tagged Files from the Group Menu. The
Statistics Window will clear and you will be prompted to enter a
path. At this point you have a number of options. The first
option is to simply type in the destination path and press the
Enter key. This is the option you should use if you are copying
to a floppy disk.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 20





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


If you are copying to a directory on the current or another
hard disk you have a much better option. If the destination is
on the current drive, you can select the destination directory by
moving the Directory Cursor with either the F1 through F6 keys or
the mouse, and pressing Enter or clicking the left mouse button
on the desired directory.
To try this now, move the Directory Cursor to the "abc1"
directory created earlier and press Enter. The tagged files will
be copied to that directory. Copying may be aborted at any time
by pressing the Escape key.
To copy tagged files to a directory on another drive, you
can press Alt D or click on the Directory Window title block.
This will pop up the Drive Menu, and you can select a drive from
it. When the drive has been selected, Swiss Army Shell will look
for the file SASDRV.TRE on that drive. If SASDRV.TRE is not
found, you will be asked if you want to scan the drive or abort
the operation.
If SASDRV.TRE is found, it will be quickly loaded and a tree
diagram of the other drive's directories will be displayed. You
may select a destination directory just as if you were in the
current drive. This operation may be aborted by pressing Escape
or the right mouse button.
You have now learned how to navigate and modify your
directories, tag files and initiate copy file operations. In
general, all group file functions work in the same way. There
are far too many features in Swiss Army Shell to cover in this
tutorial.

Configuring Swiss Army Shell
----------------------------
The configuration menu is actually a separate program named
SASCFG.EXE. It may be run from the DOS command line, or called
up while inside SAS by pressing Alt S, or selecting it from the
Misc Menu through the Master Menu.
SASCFG allows you to configure SAS to use your favorite
lister, editor, and word processor. You configure the colors for
every window, up to ten programs which may be executed with two
keystrokes, and toggle PKPAK or PKZIP as the default archive
program.
Version 2 has added the capability to swap itself to disk
during execution of any external program. You may also turn
swapping on or off for each program by using SASCFG.

Selecting List, Edit and Word Processing Programs
-------------------------------------------------
To select the list, edit and wp programs you may use the
arrow keys or mouse to move the menu bar and press , press
the left mouse button, or simply press the highlighted Hot Key to

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 21





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


select a menu item. A window will pop up allowing you to edit or
replace the existing entry. You may backspace over the current
entries and replace them with your own choices.
The full program name including the .COM or .EXE extension
must be included. The programs must be in the PATH for SAS to
find them. The file under the File Cursor will be appended to
the program command lines when they are called.
When you have entered the program name, you should press
. You will then be asked if you want Swiss Army Shell to
swap to disk during execution. If you do not have EMS memory
available, I recommend that you do not use swap for your LIST and
EDIT programs. If you use a large word processing program, such
as Word Perfect, you should enable swap for the Word Processor.
Swap to disk makes response slower, and small programs do not
need to use it. Large programs may not run at all without it.

Setting Window Colors
---------------------
The Set Colors selection will display the Set Colors Menu,
which lists the windows used in Swiss Army Shell. To change the
colors, just select the desired window from the menu and a window
showing the current color scheme will appear. The window will
contain text telling you how to change the colors of different
items such as the foreground, background, title, etc. When the
window looks like you want it just hit Escape, and the Set Colors
Menu will be displayed again. You may choose another window to
change, or hit Escape or select Exit Set Colors to return to the
Configure SAS main menu. The windows used by Swiss Army Shell
are described here:

Directory Window
----------------
This is the upper left window which contains the tree
diagram displaying the directory structure of the current drive.
The highlight foreground and background colors will be used for
the Directory Cursor.

Other Drive Window
------------------
This window replaces the Directory Window when you point and
shoot at another drive. I recommend you use colors which will
contrast it with the Directory Window.

Files Window
------------
This is the upper right window which displays the files in
the current directory. Tagged files will be displayed in reverse


-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 22





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


video, and the cursor is displayed in the selected highlight
foreground and background colors.

Statistics Window
-----------------
This is the small window at the bottom of the screen. It
displays statistics on the current drive, directory, and file.

Path Entry Window
-----------------
This window replaces the Statistics Window when entry of a
path is required.


Message Window
--------------
This window is used to display warning and informative
messages.

YesNo Window
------------
This window is used to ask Yes No questions. The question
will be displayed in the highlight color.

Name Entry Window
-----------------
This window is used by Rename File, Rename Directory, and
several other commands.

Help Window
-----------
This window is used by the help screen. You may only set
the foreground and background colors.

All Menus
---------
Allows you to set the Menu colors.

Monochrome adapter users will not be able to use this
feature. If a monochrome monitor is detected, SAS defaults to
the standard monochrome colors regardless of the configured
colors.
You are not prevented from setting unreadable colors. SAS
will attempt to detect use of the same color for foreground and
background, but only the main screen windows check for this.

Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Program List and Program Execution Menus
----------------------------------------
The Program List is extremely handy, and I use it every day
at work. By setting up different entries to edit note files or
display graphics files, with two keystrokes I can display the
graphics file under the cursor or edit a project note file. It
may be popped up by pressing P, or through the Master and Exec
Menus.
The Program List selection displays a menu which allows you
to enter up to ten DOS command lines. You may enter any valid
DOS command line up to 45 characters long. The line length is
determined by the maximum window width of the Program Execution
Menu.
These command lines may be executed while inside Swiss Army
Shell by pressing P then the number of the command line, or by
pressing the right mouse button, selecting Exec from the Master
Menu, and selecting Program List from the Exec menu. When the
Program Execution Menu pops up it will display the command lines
you have entered. Command lines may be executed by selecting
them just like any other menu item. You may move the menu cursor
and press , move the mouse and press the left button, or
press the highlighted Hot Key.
To modify the Program List, select Program List from the
Configure SAS menu, then select the entry number you want to
modify. A window will pop up with the current entry, and you may
backspace over it and enter the modified line. You MUST enter
the full program name including the extension. If you would like
to append or insert the filename under the file cursor into the
command line, you may include a percent (%) sign anywhere in the
line, and SAS will insert the filename (only once per line).
If you select an entry, then decide to leave it alone you
may hit Escape or the right mouse button and the previous entry
will be retained. When you have completed a command line, press
or the left mouse button to accept it. You will then be
asked three questions.
The first question is "Do you want to change directories?"
If you would like SAS to change to the directory which contains
the program, you must have previously entered the full path to
the program being executed. You may want to do this when you
execute programs that require support files, and don't know how
to find them. In this case the program does not need to be in
the current PATH. SAS will change to the directory containing
the program and execute it.
The second question is "Do you want to drop to a command
line?" If you would like to drop to a command line to enter
additional parameters prior to execution you should answer Yes.
SAS will clear the Statistics Window and display the command line
when you select this Program Execution Menu choice. You will not

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 24





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


be able to edit the command line, but you will be able to add to
it before executing it with .
The third question is "Would you like to swap SAS to Disk ?"
If you would like for the ExecSwap to provide maximum free RAM
for the program you should answer Yes. EMS memory will be used
if available, otherwise the disk will be used.
Here are a few typical Program List entries as they would be
displayed in the Program Execution Menu :

1 c:\pcp\pcplus.exe +CD+S
2 format.com a:
3 sort % +CL

These entries would be invoked from inside SAS like this:

Pressing P then 1 would change to drive C,
directory \PCP, swap SAS to disk or EMS
memory, and execute PCPLUS. When you exit
PCPLUS you will be returned to the same
directory you started from.

Pressing P then 2 would format a disk in
drive A.

Pressing P then 3 would drop to a command
line and append the filename under the File
Cursor to the program name SORT. You would
then be able to enter additional parameters
before initiating execution by pressing
or clicking the left mouse button.

* Note : The last selection, sort % + Cmd, would actually load a
secondary copy of COMMAND.COM to execute the sort command. If
the program name includes either a .COM or .EXE extension, Swiss
Army Shell will execute it directly or through ExecSwap. If
there is no file extension, swap will be disabled, and
COMMAND.COM will be called to execute the command line.

Program Execution Option Codes
------------------------------
The Program List uses the following codes in the menu line
to show options in affect for each choice :

+CD - Change Directory before execution
+CL - Drop to command line before execution
+S - Swap to disk/EMS before execution



-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 25





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Archive Program Default
-----------------------
The Archive Default selection allows you to select PKPAK or
PKZIP as the default archive program. The default archive
program will be the one selected when SAS is started. The
selected archive program may be changed during a session through
the Switch menu choice in the Archive Management Menu, but the
default program may only be changed in the Configure SAS Menu.

PKZIP Compression Switch
------------------------
Toggles PKZIP between Fast and Maximal Compression. The
default is Max compression.

Confirm Exit
------------
When you exit Swiss Army Shell, you will be asked to confirm
that you really wish to exit. This configuration option allows
you to turn exit confirmation on or off.

Sound ON/OFF
------------
This option allows you to turn sound on or off.

Duplicate File Check
--------------------
Starting with version 2.4, Swiss Army Shell provides an
option to check for duplicate files before copying. This
configuration option allows you to turn this option on or off.

Write Configuration File
------------------------
When you have made all your configuration changes you should
press Escape. You MUST answer Yes to the Write Configuration
question to save your choices.
A file named SAS.CFG will be written in the directory
pointed to by the SAS Environment variable. You can set an SAS
environment variable by including the following line in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT :

SET SAS=pathspec

where pathspec is the desired directory.
If no SAS Environment variable is found, SAS.CFG will be
written in the directory pointed to by the COMSPEC Environment
variable. SAS will not check to see if the drive is a floppy



-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 26





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


drive, so if you boot from a floppy, you should include a SET
COMSPEC= statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to point to a hard
disk.
Swiss Army Shell reads SAS.CFG only once during program
initialization. Any changes you make to the configuration file
will not take affect until the next time you run SAS.


Swiss Army Shell Commands
-------------------------

Shortcut Keys
-------------
Shortcut keys are single key and ALT or Control key
combinations that directly execute commands without using the
menus. Some commands prompt for input. The Help screen may be
displayed by pressing H.
Some commands pop up menus with available options. Menus
are of the moving bar type and selections may be made by moving
the bar with the cursor keys and pressing , or by simply
pressing the letter highlighted for that selection. You may also
use the mouse and left mouse button to make menu selections.
Commands that require a path entry place a window at the
bottom of the screen. Some commands will supply a default entry
which may be edited using the backspace key. You may enter
either a relative or full path (including drive) or move the
directory cursor to the desired directory and press return.
A new feature with version 2 is the capability to point and
shoot at other drives. During Copy, Move, and Archive Extraction
operations you may press ALT D and select a drive from the pop up
menu, then point at a directory on that drive by using the
directory cursor keys and shoot by pressing . As always,
Escape will terminate the command.
You may also point and shoot at other drives with the mouse.
To pop up the drive menu just point the mouse at the Drive Window
title block and click the left button. You may then select a
drive and pick a directory on that drive with the mouse.
Some commands such as ALT F - Find File (Normal or Archived)
allow entry of multiple filenames. These commands will provide a
wide window and prompt with "Enter Filename(s)".
Escape will abort any window or menu and return to SAS.
Escape also terminates copy, move, and delete operations in
progress.

Alt C - Copy Tagged Files
-------------------------
Tagged files will be copied to the destination directory.
You may enter the destination in the window provided, move the
directory cursor to the desired directory, and press , or
press ALT D to point and shoot at another drive.
You will be asked if you want to check for duplicate files,
and if you answer yes, SAS will check before copying each file.
If duplicates are found, the size, date and time for both
versions will be displayed and you will have an option to skip
copying the file. You may turn this option off using the
configuration option.
As each file is copied the filename will be displayed in the
files window. Copying may be aborted by pressing Escape.
If readonly, hidden, or system files are encountered, you
will be given the option of copying or skipping them.

May also be reached through the Master and Group Menus.
Copy tagged files is used for the Copy File option on the File
Menu.

Ctrl C - Copy Directory
-----------------------
This command provides the ability to copy all files in the
directory under the directory cursor to another location. You
will first be asked if you want to copy the directory. You will
then be asked if you want to copy any subdirectories. You may
enter a path or point and shoot at a directory on the current
drive or another drive. SAS will check to see if the directory
already exists, and if it does will give you the option of using
it or aborting the operation. If you choose to continue, you
will be asked if you wish to continue without interruptions.
Answering yes will suppress further prompts if additional
duplicate directories are found.
If the directory does not exist, it will be created as a
subdirectory of the directory pointed at, and all files will be
copied to it. If you have chosen to include subdirectories, they
will also be created, and their files will be copied. This
operation may be aborted at any time by pressing Escape.
If you copy a directory to another location on the current
drive, the drive will automatically be rescanned to recreate the
directory tree. If you copy to another drive, the SASDRV.TRE
file on that drive will be erased to force a rescan the next time
you access the drive.
If you choose to copy the root directory of a drive to a
subdirectory on another drive, you will be prompted for a name to
substitute for "\". The word "root" will be supplied as a
default, and my be replaced with a name of your choice. This

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


option allows you to clone a drive, and the entire directory and
file structure will be duplicated on the other drive.
If readonly, hidden, or system files are encountered, you
will be given the option to copy or skip them.

May also be reached through the Master and DiR menus.

D - Drive Change
----------------
A menu will pop up showing the drives available. You may
use the arrow keys and to select a new drive, or simply
press the letter of the desired drive. The quickest way to
change drives is to press D then the drive letter.

May also be reached through the Master and Drive menus, or
by clicking on the Directory Window title block.


Alt D - Delete Tagged Files
---------------------------
You will be asked if you are sure you want to delete the
tagged files. A Yes response will start the delete operation.
Each filename will be displayed in the files window as it is
deleted. The delete operation may be aborted at any time by
pressing Escape.
If readonly, hidden, or system files are encountered, you
will be given the option to delete or skip them.

* Note : The Y/N response is 'hot', ie. is NOT required to
initiate the operation.

May also be reached through the Master and Group menus.
Delete tagged is also used for the Delete File option on the File
menu.

E - Edit File
-------------
SAS will execute the program you have entered under Edit
Program Name in the configuration menu. The filename under the
cursor will be supplied as a command line parameter. If you have
not configured for your favorite editor, SAS will attempt to
execute EDLIN.COM.

May also be reached through the Master and File menus.





-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 31





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


F - Find File
-------------
SAS will search the current drive for the filespec entered,
and if it is found will display it in the files window. Wild
cards may be used. The directory cursor will be placed on the
directory containing the file and you may move to that directory
by pressing . When the directory is displayed the cursor
will be on the target file. F2 or Ctrl PgDn will continue the
search.
Version 2.4 has added the ability to search multiple hard
disks for a filespec. If multiple hard drives are found, you
will be asked if you wish to search all hard drives. If you
answer no, only the current drive will be searched. If you
answer yes, SAS will search all hard drives until the filespec is
found, or the search fails. Searching will begin with the
current drive, then wrap to the first hard drive when the last
drive has been searched.

May also be reached through the Master and File menus.

Alt F - Find File (Normal or Archived)
--------------------------------------
SAS will attempt to execute PKFIND.COM, supplying the
filename(s) entered as command line parameters. If PKFIND exists
and is in the current PATH, it will search all directories and
archives on the current drive. SAS does not attempt to interface
with PKFIND, it simply executes it. Read the PKFIND
documentation for further details. PKFIND will not search inside
.ZIP files.

May also be reached through the Master and File menus.

Ctrl F - Find File (Search Archive Only)
----------------------------------------
Operates exactly like Alt F but searches only inside
archives.

May also be reached through the Master and File menus.

L - List File
-------------
This command will execute the program entered under LIST
Program Name in the configuration menu. The file under the
cursor will be supplied as a command line parameter. If you have
not configured your favorite file lister, SAS will default to a
list program named LIST. This feature was originally intended to
execute LIST.COM by Vern Buerg, but numerous requests prompted me
to make the program name selectable.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 32





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


May also be reached through the Master and File menus. If
the file is not an executable or archive file, this will be the
default choice when the File Operations Menu pops up.

M - Move Tagged Files
---------------------
Tagged files will be moved to the specified directory. You
may enter the path in the window provided or move the directory
cursor to the desired directory and press . Move works much
faster than copying and deleting. Move may be terminated by
pressing Escape.
I have had a number of requests to make Move work across
drives. Since a Move across drives would simply be a copy and
delete operation, I have decided not to implement it. When you
copy files to another drive, the tagged files will remain tagged
and may be deleted with Alt D - Delete Tagged Files.
The Copy Directory command was also added to help cover this
request, and will allow you to create and copy a directory, its
files and subdirectories to another drive. The directory may
then be deleted by placing the directory cursor on it and
pressing Del.

May also be reached through the Master and Group menus.
Move Tagged files is also used by the Move File option on the
File menu.

Alt N - New Screen
------------------
Alt N has replaced Ctrl R as the refresh screen command.
This was done so that Ctrl R could be used for Rename Directory.
Refresh screen will redraw the screen if it becomes garbled.

O - OS Shell
------------
SAS will load a secondary copy of COMMAND.COM. Enter EXIT
at the DOS prompt to return to SAS. SAS will restore the default
path in effect when this command was issued.

May also be reached through the Master and Exec menus.

P - Program Execution
---------------------
A menu showing the command lines entered in the Program List
in the configuration menu will be displayed. A command line may
be selected by using the arrow keys and or by pressing the
number corresponding to the desired selection. The Program List
is explained in Configuring Swiss Army Shell elsewhere in this
document.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 33





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


May also be reached through the Master and Exec menus.

Alt P - Print Tagged Files
--------------------------
Tagged files will be submitted to the DOS PRINT utility.
Printing will take place in the background, but will run much
faster if you exit SAS after executing this command.

* Note : If you use this feature, PRINT.COM should be loaded
before starting SAS. If you don't, then PRINT will grab
a chunk of memory above SAS as well as some interrupt vectors,
and you might have problems running other programs after exiting
SAS.

May also be reached through the Master and Group menus.


Q - Quit in Current Directory (See Escape)
------------------------------------------
Exits SAS leaving the currently selected drive and directory
as the default.

Alt Q - Quit in Original Directory (See Escape)
-----------------------------------------------
Exits to DOS after changing to the drive and directory from
which SAS was originally started.

R - Rename File
---------------
Rename the file under the cursor. You will be prompted for
the new filename.

May also be reached through the Master and File menus.

Alt R - Rescan Current Drive
----------------------------
SAS will rescan the current drive and directory.

May also be reached through the Master and DiR menus.

Ctrl R - Rename Directory
-------------------------
This command will allow you to rename the directory under
the directory cursor. It will only work in DOS versions 3.1 and
above. You will be prompted for a new directory name.

May also be reached through the Master and DiR menus.

Configure SAS Menu. See Configuring Swiss Army Shell elsewhere
in this document for details on use of this menu.

May also be reached through the Master and Misc menus.

Ctrl S - Sort Options
---------------------
A pop up menu will allow selection of a file sort method.
The default is Sort by Name. Other sort options are by
Extension, Size, and Time (Date and Time). Sorting is always in
ascending order.

May also be reached through the Master and Sort menus.

T - Tag File
------------
Tags the file under the cursor and moves the cursor to the
next file. Tagged files will be displayed in reverse video.

Alt T - Tag All Files
---------------------
Tags all files in the directory.

May also be reached through the Master and Group menus.

U - Untag File
--------------
Untags the file under the cursor and moves the cursor to the
next file.

-----------------------------------------------------------------


V - View Archive
----------------
The cursor must be positioned on a file with a .ARC or .ZIP
extension. SAS will invoke SAV.EXE. Swiss Army View (SAV)
allows tagging of the files in the archive, and invokes
PKPAK/PKUNPAK or PKZIP/PKUNZIP to extract or delete the tagged
files from the archive. SAV.EXE is summarized in the Archive
Management section and fully described in SAV.DOC.

May be reached through the Master and Archive or File menu.

X - Execute Program
-------------------
The cursor must be positioned on a file with a .COM, .EXE,
or .BAT extension. SAS will prompt for command line parameters
then execute the program when you press . This command may
be terminated with Escape.

May also be reached through the Master and Exec Menus.
Clicking the left mouse button will act as .

Ins - Add Directory
-----------------------------
To Add a directory, position the directory cursor on the
parent directory and press Ins. You will be prompted for the new
directory name. The directory will be created and the directory
tree will be updated.

May also be reached through the Master and DiR menus.

Del - Delete Directory
----------------------
To Delete a directory, position the directory cursor on the
directory and press Del. If the directory is the current
directory or is not empty you will be asked TWICE if you REALLY
want to delete it. If you answer yes both times, the directory
and ALL files and subdirectories will be deleted. You may abort
this command at any time by pressing Escape.

May also be reached through the Master and DiR menus.

Archive Management Subsystem
----------------------------
The Archive Management Subsystem is a series of pop up menus
and windows which allow you to perform various functions which
aid in managing archive files. It may be reached through the
Master Menu, or you may simply press A. The Archive Menu
functions are described below.
Pressing V invokes SAV.EXE which allows tagging and
extracting or deleting of individual files contained in the
archive. Swiss Army View (SAV) is summarized below, and fully
described in SAV.DOC. This option is also available through the
Main and File menus.

The Archive Management Menu contains the following options:

Add Tagged Files
----------------
SAS will call the currently selected archive program to add
the tagged files to the archive. The archive program may be
toggled between PKPAK and PKZIP using the Switch menu selection
described below. SAS will default to using PKPAK, but you may
change the default to PKZIP through the configuration menu.
You will be prompted for the archive name. If the archive
resides in a directory other than the current, you must provide
the path as well. The path may be relative or fully qualified.
The currently selected PKPAK/PKZIP parameters (explained under
PKPAK/PKZIP Options below) will be in effect (ie. '-a' - Add,
'-u' - Update, '-f' - Freshen, or '-m' - Move). The
documentation for PKPAK and PKZIP should be reviewed for details
on these parameters.

Extract File Under Cursor
-------------------------
The file under the cursor must have a .ARC or .ZIP
extension. SAS will call PKUNPAK or PKUNZIP (depending on the
file extension) to extract the file under the cursor. You will
be prompted for the destination directory, and may enter the
destination in the window provided or position the directory
cursor on the desired directory and press . You may also
Press Alt D to point and shoot at a directory on another drive.
The mouse may also be used to point and shoot at directories
on the current or other drives, just as with the Copy Tagged
Files command.






-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 38





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Extract Tagged Archives
-----------------------
SAS will call PKUNPAK or PKZIP (repeatedly if necessary) to
unarc the tagged archives. Archives with .ARC and .ZIP
extensions may be mixed, and SAS will automatically select the
correct program for each file. All tagged archives will be
completely extracted to the directory specified. As usual the
destination may be entered in the window provided or the
directory cursor may be positioned on the desired directory and
pressed to select that directory. You may also Press Alt D
to point and shoot at a directory on another drive.
The mouse may also be used to point and shoot at directories
on the current or other drives, just as with the Copy Tagged
Files command.

Compress Directory
------------------
The currently selected archive program will be called with
the -m parameter and archive all files in the current directory.
You will be prompted for an archive name. The files will be
deleted after they are added to the archive.
Compress Directory ignores the PKPAK/PKZIP Options you may
have selected. When PKPAK is selected, directories are always
compressed using new (ntc) compatibility. Add tagged files
should be used if you need old compatibility or any non-default
PKPAK/PKZIP options.

* Note : If this directory was previously extracted and the .ARC
or .ZIP file was not deleted the .ARC or .ZIP file will be added
to the archive. Use the UnCompress Archive menu selection when
extracting compressed directories to avoid this problem.

UnCompress Archive
------------------
SAS will call PKUNPAK or PKUNZIP to extract the archive under the
cursor. The archive will be extracted to the current directory.
You will have the option to delete the .ARC or .ZIP file after
extraction.

PKPAK/PKZIP Options
-------------------
SAS will pop up a menu showing the current PKPAK/PKZIP parameters
in effect. The menu will allow toggling these options on or off.
The menu selections are as follows :

Add Option - Enables PKPAK/PKZIP Add ('-a') parameter. Update

('-u'), Freshen ('-f'), and Move ('-m') will be disabled. This is
the default when SAS is loaded.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 39





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Update Option - Enables PKPAK/PKZIP Update ('-u') parameter.
Add ('-a'), Freshen ('-f'), and Move ('-m') will be disabled.

Freshen Option - Enables PKPAK/PKZIP Freshen ('-f') parameter.
Add ('-a'), Update ('-u'), and Move ('-m') will be disabled.

Move Option - Enables PKPAK/PKZIP Move ('-m') parameter. Add
('a'), Freshen ('f'), and Update ('u') will be disabled. Files
added to an archive will be deleted.

Encrypt Option - Enables PKPAK Encrypt ('g') parameter. SAS
will prompt for a password before calling PKPAK or PKUNPAK. The
password will be echoed with asterisks. This option is not
available in PKZIP 0.92, but should work when PKZIP adds
encryption capability.

* Note : Experimentation has shown that encrypted archives may be
viewed and PKUNPAK will extract them with a Failed CRC check
message, however the extracted files will contain garbage if
extracted without specifying a password.

Comment Archive- Enables PKPAK Archive Comment ('x') parameter or
PKZIP Zipfile Comment ('z') parameter.

Optional Comments - Enables PKPAK File Comment ('c') parameter.
PKZIP 0.92 does not support individual file comments, and if this
option is used with PKZIP selected, you will get the standard
Usage screen displayed by PKZIP when it cannot understand the
command line. If future versions of PKZIP use 'c' as the command

option for this function, it should work fine.

* Note : You should consult the documentation for PKPAK/PKUNPAK
or PKZIP/PKUNZIP for further details on these parameters.

Make File Self Extracting
-------------------------
The file under the cursor must have a .ARC or .ZIP
extension. SAS will search the current path for PKSFX.PGM if the
file has a .ARC extension and will concatenate the file under the
cursor with it to make a self extracting archive. You may accept
the default .EXE file name displayed or backspace over it and
enter another name.
If the file has a .ZIP extension, SAS will call the program
ZIP2EXE.EXE to make the file self extracting.





-----------------------------------------------------------------
SAS24.DOC Page 40





Swiss Army Shell Version 2.4 (c) 1988,1989,1990 Steven C. Lee
-----------------------------------------------------------------


Toggle Compatibility
--------------------
Toggles PKPAK between new ('ntc') and old ('otc')
compatibility. The default is new compatibility, so if you want
old compatibility, when SAS is run press A then T to toggle it
on. This option has no affect on PKZIP.

PKZIP Compression Toggle
------------------------
Toggles PKZIP between Fast and Maximal compression. The
default is Max compression, but may be changed in the
configuration menu.

Integrity Test
--------------
Calls PKUNPAK or PKZIP with the -t parameter. Each file in the
archive under the cursor will be tested for integrity.

Switch
------
Switches the currently selected archive program from PKPAK to
PKZIP (or vice versa) for the current session only. To
permanently change the default, use the Configure SAS option.

Swiss Army View
---------------
Swiss Army View (SAV.EXE) is a stand alone program which may
be distributed freely. SAV extracts and displays the file header
information from .ARC and .ZIP files in a pageable display and
will allow tagging and untagging of files for extract and delete
operations.
Special thanks to Basil Copeland on the IBMSYS forum for the
ARC and ZIP header structures and scanning routines.
You should read SAV.DOC (included in this archive) for
complete instructions on the use of Swiss Army View.

Support
-------
I will be happy to answer any questions you have about Swiss
Army Shell. I may be reached at 205-655-3926, or on The ST BBS
at 205-836-9311, 300/1200/2400/8/n/1.

SAS Entomology
--------------
This program probably contains some bugs. I have tested all
features, and have tried entering garbage to find potential
crashes, but I know better than to claim it is bug free.
Crashes should return a run time error number and an address
consisting of a segment and offset separated by a colon. If you
encounter any of these please copy them down and let me know. It
would also be helpful if you could give me a brief description of
what you were trying to do at the time.

Kudos
-----
First, I would like to thank my wife and kids for putting up
with the long hours of writing and testing. They have endured
quite a lot, and deserve most of the credit !
I want to thank Steve Turner, Sysop of The ST BBS for being
a willing and enthusiastic guinea pig during the development and
testing of Swiss Army Shell since version .001 !
I would also like to express thanks to Turbo Power Software
for publishing and allowing the free use of the ExecSwap unit.
This unit has solved most of the problems with executing large
external programs.
Thanks to Basil Copeland for AZD10, a Turbo Pascal arc, zip,
and lzh file viewer. I used the arc and zip header structures
and scanning routines almost unchanged in SAV. I am considering
adding LZH to SAV in the future.
This program was originally intended to emulate Directory
Scanner written by Nat Martino. Although it has now taken
directions of my own choosing, I would like to thank Nat Martino
for coming up with the basic keyboard user interface.
And finally I would like to thank Phil Katz for his
excellent archive management programs, and Vern Buerg for
LIST.COM. If you use these programs you should support the
authors and register for them.
