Subject: SWEEP40 file copy program available on SIMTEL20
SWEEP version 4.0 by Robert Fisher is now available on SIMTEL20. This
utility program is for maintaining file directories, and transferring
files between drivers and user areas under CP/M 2.2. When SWEEP is
invoked, you will see a menu of commands and the first entry in the
directory. You will also be given a total space (in K) occupied by
the files and the remaining space on the disk. Typing 'space' or
'return' moves you forward in the directory; typing B moves you
backward. The directory is circular, so typing space at the end of
the directory moves you to the beginning.
This program was written in PL/I and the complied .COM file is 28k,
which is much larger than NSWP or DISK7. However, SWEEP40 has been
around for a long time and there have been no bugs reported. I have
received two reports of NSWP205 trashing hard disk directories.
SWINIT is a setup program which allows you to customize SWEEP40 for
your terminal's screen clear command, maximum number of drives
allowed, maximum user number allowed, etc.
No .DOC file is needed because the program has built-in help and
because SWINIT allows customization which was formerly documented in a
.DOC file and required DDT to patch.
Here is a list of the files (the .HEX files are for those who cannot
FTP binary files):
Filename Type Bytes Sectors CRC
Directory MICRO:<CPM.FILCPY>
SWEEP40.COM.1 COM 28032 219 = DBH 0599H
SWEEP40.HEX.1 ASCII 68232 534 = 216H 7549H
SWEEP40.TXT.1 ASCII 249 2 = 2H EE98H
SWINIT40.COM.1 COM 13952 109 = 6DH D80BH
SWINIT40.HEX.1 ASCII 33975 266 = 10AH 41A7H
