]Heh. Meanwhile, news release from EFF recently posted might be
interesting. Sent it to you on chinet. The CFPconf is widely
discussed on the WELL BBS and that is where I got the little item I
first used.

Msg 46160 is 13 line(s) on 03/18/93 from WARD CHRISTENSEN
to DAVID JOHNSON re: R/DISK CLEANUP
Sheesh, I completely forgot about it! One thing I try to do to manage
what I have, for chinet, is to have a fully qualified subdirectory that
matches chinet. Thus I have a directory: D:\YAM\CHINET\USR\PUBLIC that
had the file in it - it was sort of "invisible". I forgot to put it on
my "todo" list.
My apologies for the effort you put in then I dropped the ball!
One thing I DID do to help manage my disk, is to buy a REALLY big tape
drive - I can back up everything multiple times to one tape. Heh. I'm
thinking of BLOWING AWAY the system, and being more systematic: like
Randy Suess recommended - Windows in its own dir, with NO applications
under it; etc. That way you can blow away a root dir entry. (though
I could just as easily blow away \win3\coreldrw, etc.).
I'll try to remember to take a look at PCMANAGE!

Don't know if this is along the lines of what you're looking for, but
there's a program called PC-MANAGE (I believe it was put out by PC-Magazine
or such), that will PKZIP files that haven't been used after a specified
time automatically

01 ? Uh, OK, I cranked it up. I didn't "trust" it so I put it on my laptop,
02 ?but I couldn't get it to do anything. Perhaps I didn't have a large
03 ?enough file. I'll experiment more. Just to have it record the last ref
04 ?date for a file would be useful, but the limit of 100 is a SEVERE limit -
05 ?I have for example 300 files in several directories.
06 ? Ah, but come to think of it, there is source, and I could change it...
