C Swing is a file and directory management utility.
These are the patches to upgrade from C Swing v3.6.3 to v3.6.4.
New in v3.6.4:
o Upgraded MOST to 3.03FM, as described in the header of its main.c.
(by Foteos Macrides)
** This version will also appear on the US DECUS Fall VMS Systems SIG tape. **
For those not familiar with C Swing, here's an excerpt from the readme file:
SWING is a VAX/VMS utility for displaying the graphic representation of the
VMS directory structure on any terminal that can support the SMG routines -
that is primarily the VT100, VT200 and VT300 series of terminals. SWING is
designed to make life easy for a user who frequently performs directory or
file operations within his or her directories.
SWING displays the top eight directory levels of the user's directory
structure. If there are more than eight levels a diamond is displayed in the
right-most column indicating that there are non-displayed directories.
SWING has a two level help facility. Quick menus are available via the ?
option. Standard VMS help is available via the H or HELP (LK201) option.
The C language version of SWING was written by Simon Brown, and maintained by
him through V3.2. It has been modified by many people, and is currently
maintained primarily by Mats Akerberg, Harry Flowers, and Foteos Macrides.
Most of the documentation has been rewritten by Chris Butler. Although the
online help is good, you should read the manual. The re-write was necessary as
he did not have a Fortran compiler, and felt that C was a more appropriate
language. Also, colleagues required major enhancements, so the software was
started from scratch. The result that you see here consumed something in the
region of 400 to 500 hours of spare time. The software has been placed back in
the public domain.
As always, we're interested in any bug reports/enhancement requests that you
might have (not that we promise to fix/implement them ;-), but chances are
much better if we know about them).
