I have posted the d'Librarian package to comp.binaries.mac. Here are
some notes that will help you understand what it does.
Enjoy!

d'Librarian 2.0 is a fully-fledged disk catalogger that is shareware.
d'Librarian 2.42d is a demo of the registered user's version you receive
if you pay me for the use of d'Librarian 2.0 and the postage (you provide
the disk). As it is merely a demo, printing, saving and opening of files
are disabled. However the demo has many extra features that are not found
in 2.0.
These include :
% Multi-column printing. You can print 1 to 255 columns ! (not really
available in the demo version as printing is disabled - sorry, but you can
see an example of it in the enclosed FullPaint file).
% Edit attributes - so you can display only the file-name if you want to
or everything, and in whatever order you want. This works both when saving
as text and when printing.VERY USEFUL !! (Invoke it using Command-E).
% A little bit of colour so your mac]['s don't look so dull.
% A Ruler marker so that you can visually adjust the width of your display
and ensure all text will fit when you do multi-column printing.
% Copying using the clipboard. Useful with disk-labellers and when editting
text.
% Fine-tuning the number of characters in a file-name to display. Useful to
tighten your columns when printing. (Invoke it using Command-E).
% Fully switcher and multi-finder compatible.
% File-filtering to prevent printing of unwanted files.(Invoke it using
Command-L).
I have decided to bundle the general distribution version this way as an
inducement to people to register. I suspect many people out there are using
my d'Librarian 2.0 but are unaware of the vast improvements I have made to
the program. These improvements will only benefit registered users.
So I'm waiting for your cheques with anticipation !
