Mon 01-Mar-91: I have acquired some new files which I have looked at
more closely at garbo.uwasa.fi archives:
/pc/dirutil
go_3_0.zip      Go to directories and find files v3.0 Richard Larkin
                This very handy shareware utility comes from the
                binary postings. Absolutely worth a closer look.
                Needs a spell to getting used to, though, but the F1
                help function soon solves that. Configuring the
                advanced options takes some figuring out. Eg I
                wanted to put the auxiliary file go.dtl on my ram
                disk for my testing. It took me quite awhile to find
                out how to achieve this. Simple only in retrospect.
                (Incidentally, if you haven't come to think of it
                dc106f.zip Directory Control can also be used for an
                elementary point and shoot changing of directories.
                Go_3_0 and dc106f are not, however, substitutes for
                each other).
/pc/diskutil
pcopy90.zip     Norm Patriquin's fabulous copy program version 9.0.
                Parti-Soft has produced many excellent utilities
                including this multi-purpose copier which now seems
                to have Daniel Collier as co-author. Excellent as
                pcopy is, I feel that the current version has become
                severely bloated. Therefore I'll retain pcopy85d.zip
                on garbo.uwasa.fi archives. In fact, personally I
                use version 7.87 on my desktop, and version 5.1! on
                my portable. A minor problem in 9.0 was that despite
                the documented claim I did not find any legend on
                the updates in the .doc file.
/pc/fileutil
ps44c.zip       File and text search from Patri-Soft version 4.4c.
                An excellent menu driven text search with one silly
                bug. The program chrashes if ascii beyond 127 search
                strings are used.
/pc/miscutil
xdos202.zip     ExtraDOS utilities v 2.02 from Foley Hi-Tech Systems
                A shareware collection of a little less than 30
                utilities. Worth browsing. Contents:
                EXTRADOS.TXT   CURLOCK.COM    HUSH.COM       SPKR.COM
                TURBOBAT.COM   AREA.EXE       BANNER.EXE     BOOT.EXE
                CAL.EXE        CAT.EXE        CURSOR.EXE     CUT.EXE
                DELAY.EXE      DETAB.EXE      EDIT.EXE       EVAL.EXE
                FF.EXE         FS.EXE         FT.EXE         HEX.EXE
                LASER.EXE      LS.EXE         MAZE.EXE       MOVE.EXE
                SA.EXE         TS.EXE         PAUSE.SYS
