; FileList does just that, zips around your open buffers and tells you which
; files you have open, how many lines are in each, the total number of files,
; and the total number of lines. It even shows which line the cursor is on in
; is on in ALL open files! Like PickFile, altho' FileList serves a different
; purpose, an asterisk before the file means it has not been saved since modi-
; fications were last made. Like my STATS macro, I think you will find this is
; one you will use daily. It gives you an instant overview of the swap file.
; TO INSTALL: To put this macro into Sprint, simply load this file, exactly
; as it is. If there is a ruler at the top, remove it. Then type the ALT-U-M-R
; key combination and this macro will be compiled. Next, use the ALT-U-M-E key
; combination. When it reads, "Enter Macro:" on the status line at the bottom
; of your screen, type in the name "FILELIST" and hit the
; may then either execute your new macro, or assign it to a key or key
; combination for ease-of-use in the future. Enjoy!
; FileList and the other unique Sprint macros in this series are all the copy-
; righted property of Ralph Roberts. You may distribute and use them freely.
; They are, frankly, advertisements for my book on Sprint, and the other help-
; ful computer-oriented books that I write. Helping fellow computer users is
; how I make my living, so please look for my books and articles. Thanks.
; Ralph Roberts, the author of this macro, also wrote the comprehensive book,
; COMPUTE!'S USING BORLAND'S SPRINT. Autographed copies of this 100,000-word+
; book are now available for the retail price of $16.95 (ppd) from the author
; at: P.O. Box 8549, Asheville, North Carolina 28814, or you may buy it through
; your local Waldenbooks, B. Dalton's, or other quality bookstore.

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/
