The Mosquito Hawk Utility Pack is a set of five useful MS DOS utilities.
Documentation for each utility is available to the user by simply running
the utility without any parameters.  The five utilities in the Mosquito
Hawk Utility Pack are described below.

SPARKS.COM and STICKS.COM - SPARKS.COM was selected by John C. Dvorak to
be one of the top 30 programs in all of shareware and was included in the
commercial software package DVORAK'S TOP 30.  Sparks and Sticks are
multi-tasking graphical screen savers which run under MS-DOS.  (Most
graphical screen savers like After Dark for example, require MS Windows.)
On-line documentation for Sparks and Sticks is available by typing 
"sparks /?" or "sticks /?" at the DOS prompt.

CODIFY.EXE - CODIFY is a data encryption program which allows the user to
encrypt any type of file or program.  The user specifies a password which
is used as the KEY to encrypt the file.  To unencrypt the file the user
simply runs the CODIFY program on the encrypted file using the same
password that was used to encrypt it.  Codify allows the user to use the
ONLY encryption technique which has been mathematically proven to be
impossible to break!  (This is to use a password longer than the file
being encrypted.)  The on-line docks explain how to do this.  For on-line
documentation type CODIFY at the DOS prompt.

CRC.EXE - CRC returns a Cyclic Redundancy Check Fingerprint number based
on the contents of the specified file.  If any changes are made to the
file then its Fingerprint number will change.
  For example let's say we have two files, FILE1 and FILE2, and we want to
know if they are identical.  First we type CRC FILE1 at the DOS prompt to
get the CRC Fingerprint number of the first file.  Then we type CRC FILE2
at the DOS prompt the get the CRC Fingerprint number of the second file.
If the two numbers are the same then we know the files are the same.  If
the two numbers are different then we know the files are different.
  CRC is the easiest way to compare files that are on different computers or
at different sites.  For on-line documentation type CRC at the DOS prompt.

GO.EXE - GO is what is known as a lazy cd.  Instead of using the cd
command to change to a new directory you may do so via the GO command
without having to specify the full path to the new directory.  
E.g. Lets say we want to go to a directory called 

                      WORK\DATA\CUSTOMER\CREDIT

Just type GO CREDIT at the DOS prompt.  GO will search your hard drive for
the sub directory called CREDIT and move you there.  If you have more than
one sub directory called CREDIT then simply continue to type GO CREDIT
until you are at the desired CREDIT sub directory.  For on-line docks just
type GO and hit return.
