FATCAT SOFTDOC
by
Mr. Floppy
Fatcat is a disk directory manager from Beagle Brothers. It will make a
text file containing all of your floppy's catalogs. It will work with
both DOS 3.3 and Prodos automatically. The commands for this program
are as follows:
Key Action
--- ------
1 Catalog of disk in drive 1
! Catalog of disk in drive 2
2 Disk name command:
1=Display disk names in memory
2=Display name of disk in D2
3=Change name of disk in D2
3 Add disk in D2 to file in memory
4 Clear memory [asks if sure first]
5 Load file from disk to memory
6 Save memory to disk
7 Turn printer on
8 Print file in memory
9 Add descriptions to files in memory
0 Delete an entry in memory
: Sort files in memory
- Search for specific file, etc.
esc Quit or abort
These commands assume that you have configured Fatcat to read from drive
two, if you have not, the commands above will always access drive 1. To
change the parameters (drives, 40/80 columns, etc.) just run the program
and when it asks if the current parameters are OK, respond with No and
change the param- eters you wish to change. Fatcat will remember the
parameters you used last time so that you will not have to modify them
every time you run Fatcat. The rest of the questions asked by Fatcat
are self explanitory.
NOTE: Do not write protect your Fatcat disk, because Fatcat sometimes
writes to the disk (when running Fatcat at first, when changing
parameters, etc.)
