I am about to release Disk OrGanizer version 2.02 and would like some feed back on likes and dislikes of version 1.01a.

I use DOG a lot and think it's great. One mode that I would like to see is a "directory-only" compression, moving all directories and contained subdirectories to continguous sectors on the outer tracks. (Speeds up directory searches with large paths.) Another change is a mode that would automatically pack all the files in a directory, without having the name them in an ORDER.DOG file. This operation should be applicable to selected directories. Another option would allow me to specify a directory size greater than the default, for those situations where I know in advance that I will have lots of files. This would avoid directory fragmentation. -- Philip Burton burton.osbunorth@parcvax.xerox.COM Xerox Corp. {backbone}!hplabs!parcvax!burton.osbunorth 408 737 4635 ... usual disclaimers apply ...
