There is a Hypercard stack called something Floppy_Cat that could serve as a
basis for your program.  It includes a XCMD that quickly reads the contents
of a floppy and puts it on a card.  It has a lot of parameters to obtain
file information.  It provides an easy and quick way to catalog your
floppies, but the rest you have to write yourself (except the standard
hypercard find etc.).

I think it is on sumex-aim.stanford.edu in the directory card.  

			Good luck,

PS, I am interested in what you write or find.
