" Introduction|
" -------------
" " "ZTreeBold" is a text-mode file/directory manager for OS/2. It has
" been developed as a native OS/2 alternative to the DOS product,
" XTreeGold (tm), at least until its makers can come up with the goods.
" While I am sure you are well aware of the virtues of XTreeGold, you
" know the disadvantages of it being a DOS program. I wrote ZTreeBold
" to provide all the functionality I am so accustomed to, while avoiding
" all the DOS imposed limitations.
" " This version (1.00) of ZTreeBold is the fifth public release. It is
" virtually identical to the original in operation and appearance, so
" you will find no online help or documentation - my reasoning is that
" ZTreeBold is for people who already know and love XtreeGold.
" " Features|
" ---------
" " Using OS/2 filesystem APIs, ZTreeBold avoids several of XTreeGolds'
" limitations.
" " - Doesn't hog the CPU while waiting for keyboard activity.
" - Trying to log an in-use device will be dealt with gracefully.
" - The ability to copy and search open files.
" - Copy and Move functions will deal with a files' EAs. " - Directory Grafting
works.
" - Support of long HPFS filenames.
" - The ability to launch OS/2 programs.
" - Flexible support of *ANY* archiving program present and future.
" " Being a native OS/2 application, ZTreeBold loads very quickly, as
" there is no DOS session to start first.
