See AAREADME.1ST for earlier "readme" file comments. CSWING - Version of SWING written in C by S.J. Brown & modified by M. Akerberg. SWING is an extremely handy directory management tool. I have made several minor bug fixes to version 3.3 from Mats Akerberg. I'm calling this V3.4, but my version maintains the V3.2 key bindings that Mats changed in V3.2.x and V3.3. I think that the original V3.2 keys are much more intuitive to a VMS user than the V3.3 ones, so both of us will probably be maintaining slightly different versions. Mine also includes changes others have made from Mats' V3.2.2 which I got via FTP archives of vmsnet.sources. Here are some of the bugs I fixed: o Did not handle disks in bound volume sets. o Couldn't exit from "@ - change file protection". o Disk quota ("&") option did not stay on screen until key pressed. o Quit option did not work on copy or move files or directory options. o More ("Y") option failed after invoking it a fixed number of times. o More ("Y") option ^W did not reset internally to normal from wide. o More ("Y") option searching did not work in case-insensitive mode unless a lower-case string was used for the search pattern. o More ("Y") option spacing problem with form feeds; now treated just like a non-printable character (replaces it with a "^" character). o More ("Y") option caused the file manager to display the file in lower case after it had been viewed. Please note: If your site makes heavy use of CSWING and you find any bugs, I'd like to hear about them (but I don't promise fixes :-). Also, if you are actively working on CSWING, I'd appreciate a note from you about what you're doing. It looks like I'll be supporting it (at least locally) for some time to come. If your site doesn't use CSWING, you're missing something. Even a techie such as myself finds it useful for browsing and cleaning up directories; it is even more valuable to a general user. CSWING is distributed as three savesets: CSWING_SRC.BCK, CSWING_OBJ.BCK, and CSWING_DOC.BCK. I have made no changes (yet) to the documention. ___ ___ _____ ___ ___ Harry Flowers, Tech Support, Memphis State University | \/ | / ____\ | | | | 112 Admin Building | Domain: FLOWERS@MSUVX1.MEMST.EDU | \ / | \____ \ | |_| | Memphis, TN 38152 | Bitnet: FLOWERS@MEMSTVX1 |_|\/|_| \_____/ \_____/ Ph: (901) 678-2663 | TECnet: MSU::FLOWERS
