[comp.os.msdos.misc] Floppy disk registration program

agutter@cs.vu.nl (Gutter A) (07/03/90)

I'm looking for a MSDOS program that keeps an online database of the contents 
of floppy disks.  The database must be kept up to date automatically when 
files are added to or deleted from a floppy.  It must be possible to add 
additional information to the database.

files are added to or deleted from a floppy.  It must be possible to add 
additional information to the database.

I already posed the question above in the newsgroup comp.os.msdos.misc. This
resulted in two suggested solutions, the programs CATD380 and CATDISK (possibly
two names for the same program?). Each should be obtainable from some bulletin 
board.

Does anyone know where I can find these programs (or maybe some other program 
that does the same)?

Thanks,

Catdisk is an excellent disk catalog program.  It is available on many BBS's.
The name of the latest file should be CDISK450.ZIP.  One bbs which I know has
it is Future Technology 617-720-4095 at 2400 bd.  Hayes 9600 v.42 617-720-
1330.  USRobotics 9600 617-227-4170.  (When I got it it was CDISK433.ZIP.)

It is also available from the author: Rick Hillier, 405 Barrington Lane,
Waterloo, ONTARIO, Canada,  N2T 1H9.  Phone (519) 888-6763, FAX (519) 884-4887.
Registration cost is $19.50.  If you want new disk and registration $24.25.

Make checks payable to Rick Hiller.
