I originally wrote these tools under MS-DOS because I found a need for them and there were no commercially available products which provided these functions. Some ExtraDOS tools were designed to enhance programs already found in MS-DOS. Other tools were familiar to the Unix world, but were not available in MS-DOS. In addition, ExtraDOS compliments PC-Tools and Norton Utilities with added tools these programs do not provide." Here is a list of the programs which are included in this package: ADDCOMM - Serial Port Management Program ALARMCLK - Alarm Clock Program ALLSUB - Perform Task In All Subdirectories AREA - Telephone Area Code Search Utility BANNER - DOS Banner Display BOOT - PC Rebooting Utility BOOTLOCK - Lock Out Reboot Keys and Break Keys BOOTPAST - Boot Past a Floppy to the Hard Disk BRKBOX - COM Port Break Out Box Display CAL - DOS Calendar Display CAT - DOS Cat Text File Utility CHIMES - DOS Clock Chimes CLEAN - Floppy Drive Cleaning Program CLEANUP - Cleanup Your Drives from Duplicate Files CURLOCK - Lock Cursor Shape Permanently CURSOR - Change Cursor Shapes CUT - DOS Cut Text File Utility DELAY - Batch File Delay Utility DETAB - File Detabulation Utility DISKINFO - Disk Drive Information Reporter EDIT - Full Screen Editor EVAL - DOS Command Line Calculator FILEATTR - Change File Attributes FILEINFO - File Information Program FILESIZE - File Size Listing Utility FILETREE - File Directory Tree Listing Utility FINDFILE - Find File on Disk HELP - DOS Command HELP HEXDUMP - File Hex Display Utility HUSH - Speaker Silencing Utility KILLDIR - Remove Directory and All Contents LASER - Control HP Laser Jet from DOS LS - DOS Listing Utility MAZE - DOS Maze Creator MOVE - MOVE Files Across Disks NAMEDIR - Name Directory Utility PATHFIND - Path Find File Utility PSPRINT - PostScript Text File Print Utility SCNATTR - Set Screen Attributes SPEEDRAM - Speed up CPU by Reducing Refresh TEXTSRCH - Text Searching Utility TIDY - Clean up .BAK and 0 Length File Utility TOUCH - Touch File Date Utility TURBOBAT - Turbo Batch File Compiler VOLLABEL - Disk Volume Label Update Utility Revision notes: 05/16/91 - Version 3.20 Fixed the problem with some programs that had been compiled with 286 instructions and would not run on XT type machines.

I did not repack it, although I was tempted to break it into two ZIPs because of the size: 602349 bytes. Complaints about this to the author, please, not to me.
