Hmmm. When I remember correct I once had a file with C source
that claimed to do the same thing as NCD but via multiple drives.
It used norton's treeinfo.ncd and could even bulid it up when it
was not yet there.

I think the name of this program was GO or something like that.
Sorry, I can't find it here. Possible I deleted it because it
didn't work correctly on multiple drives.

Yes it seems to work.
