I really enjoy VMARC and really appreciated someone writing the QVMARC front end. The NOTE file on VMSHARE does not give the name of anyone, just that it came from the 1990 Workshop tape. If anyone knows who did it, please pass on my thanks. QVMARC is a fullscreen front-end to VMARC like the PC versions for ZIP, ARC, etc. It was on VMSHARE and the SHARE Workshop tools tape for 1990. Since I use QVMARC so much I found that there were things that I wanted to do that it didn't support yet, so I added them. My changes include 1) specifying the disk to unpack to, 2) getting Temp disk if #1 isn't accessed, 3) adding Unpack to the initial screen to do an entire VMARC file, 4) changing code to work with 32 and 24 line displays, 5) allow sorting of display by various fields, 6) use LISTFILE output for more information about each VMARC file and probably a few minor things which don't come to mind right now. If you would like QVMARC you can get it from me via FTP 144.11.100.1, userid ANONYMOU, password GUEST, files QVMARC VMSHARE and LOCAL. If you don't have FTP you can send me mail and I will send you a copy.
