selected attributes A (Archive), R (Read-only), S (System),
and/or H (Hidden). Type "ATTR a" at the top level of your disk
to see how many files have been modified since the last backup.

NUMOFF: NUMLOCK OFF
Numoff is a small assembly language program which shuts the
"NumLock" off, allowing the arrow keys in the numeric keypad to
work. While it is a standalone program, it is best used in a
batch to start up programs which require NumLock off.


SETCOL: SET COLORS
SETCOL is used to set the text and graphics background colors for the
following programs: BFM BUS RDIR RFILE SETCOL SFT STF. Ver 1.03

SFT: SHOW FILE W/TABS
Show file with tabs. Search for text. SFT is a file viewer
which allows you to adjust the TAB settings or search for text.
It was written to deal with old converted Apple files which had
a tab spacing of 4, and so I could read the program listings of
a friend who used a setting of 3 instead of the usual 8.
It is a companion piece to STF, show two files. Ver 1.12 $5.00



RDIR: DISK USE PIE CHART
Shows Relative DIRectory size in a pie chart. RDIR requires
CGA, EGA or VGA. Graphic representation of subdirectory size in
Pie & Bar charts. This DOS program is compatible with Windows.
Pinpoints where disk space is being used. Latest revision adds
a scrollable directory list. Reviewed in PCM Magazine June 1991.
Also reviewed in the May '92 issue of COMPUTE magazine.
Ver 1.27 $10.00


RFILE: RELATIVE FILE SIZE
Shows Relative FILE size of all files in the current directory
in a graphic presentation similar to RDIR. Another aid to
finding where the disk space is being used up. Requires CGA,
EGA or VGA. Ver 1.02 $7.00


STF: SHOW TWO FILES
STF compares two ASCII text files side-by-side. It can be used
to see if two files are identical, or if not, to pinpoint what
is different between the two files. This helps to identify what
changes you have made between two revisions. Differences are
"Highlighted" by dimming unequal lines of one file.
Version 1.20 was extensively revised to speedup file operations
such as UpArrow, PageUp. An arrow-key filename selector screen
avoids the need to type filenames. Each file can be individually
scrolled using the arrow keys. Text or VGA graphics mode.

ABOUT THESE PROGRAMS

These programs were written by me to meet a need which was not met by either
DOS commands nor by commercially available software. If Norton Utilities or
XTREE could do the job, I would use their version before spending the time
writing code. These programs are intended to improve productivity and save
time. The first utility I wrote was RDIR. The DOS "DIR" command shows the size
of Files, but only the name of the Sub-Directories. I wanted to know how big
they were to help me decide what was taking up so much disk space.
