I needed to recover some space on my hard disk and a good candidate was
the gaggle of batch files to change into a particular directory.  For each
file of 20 - 50 bytes I was eating an allocation unit of 2048 bytes.  I have
written a small C program to read a data file and match a mnemonic passed
on the command line with a directory entry in the file.  In this manner,
with only two files, the program and its data, I can accomplish the same
thing as 40 batch files.

If anyone is interested in this program, let me know and I will E-mail
directly.  If lots of interest, I will post.
