DESCRIPTION
QuickTools is the tool package for the harddisk owner
who is tired of writing long pathnames when changing
directories and who doesn't have the time to search
for files manually. QuickTools consists mainly of four
small utilities and a library where the search
routines are. All search routines support standard
AmigaDOS wildcards.
Qcd:
With this you can change directory by only writing
enough of the directory name to identify it. The
directory can be anywhere on the harddisk. If more
than one directory maches the search word a requester
will pop up and you can select the directory you want
to change to.
If you want to change to a directory with the
Path: NOT-FOR-MAIL
It's several ways to do it: You can write:
'Qcd Harddisk0:Work/SAS/SelfMade/QuickCD' (the hard way)
Or just: 'Qcd qui' (the fast way)
QFind:
Search for files, scans through the database in just a
few seconds.
QPop:
A commodity for file and directory searching.
QMan:
A documentation finding utility which uses the database
to locate the documentation file for a specified program.
The file found can be shown with a configurable viewer.
These programs are a must for any serious hard-disk user!!
