QSORT.EXE Version 1.01                             By Mike Reveile

QSORT is a very useful little Windows sort utility for anyone who
keeps a lot of lists like I do. All the books on your bookshelves,
all the tapes in your video collection, and all the records or CD's
in your rack can easily be kept in lists inside your computer and
sorted whenever you add or subtract from them to keep them organized.

Sure, DOS has a sort program, but if I wanted to work in the DOS
environment, I wouldn't have purchased Windows, and setting up the
DOS sort program to work in a window is kind of like taking two steps
back instead of one step forward.

Yes, I have a database program for windows, but why use a huge
application when a small one will work just fine... and faster.
Yes, it even works in conjunction with Excel and Word for Windows.

When you register QSORT, it will create a file called QSORT.INI in
your windows directory, where it will keep your registration number.
This file must not be deleted or given away to anyone. It may, however
but backed-up for archival purposes.

After QSORT is registered, it will handle lists up to 8000 lines in
length or 65000 bytes long and the AUTO function will work. Until
then it is limited to 200 lines.

QSORT sorts the clipboard contents, so if I am listing a few things in
a document and add or subtract one or two of them, it's an easy thing
to mark them, copy them to the clipboard, get QSORT to grab and sort
them, and copy them back into my document.

The QSORT controls are pretty straight forward so that there is no HELP
button in the program.

1	You can sort by any column in the data, and limit the column
	 width of the data that is sampled as well.

2	You can sort numbers with plus and minus signs.
	 {Sorry, but QSORT does not have the ability to ignore dollar
	 signs yet, it might go in the next version, but for now,
	 columnize them and set the sort column past them.}

3	You can have it eliminate the blank lines in the data as it
	 reads from the clipboard.

4	You can have it trim off the leading or trailing spaces as it
	 reads from the clipboard.

5	You can sort ignoring or respecting the case of the letters.

6	And of course it will sort into ascending or descending orders.

7	Automatic mode: (Registered version only) You set up the defaults
	and simply press Alt-A, the contents of the clipboard are grabbed,
	sorted and replaced. Makes operation very simple.

Sorry, but QSORT only understands valid DOS-type CR/LF combinations, this
may change with the next version.

QSORT requires that it's runtime library: VBRUN100.DLL (not included in
the distribution package because you can get it everywhere) be in the path,
preferably in the Windows directory.

QSORT is Shareware, and as such, you may distribute it freely as long
as you distribute the original ZIP file only. You may not sell QSORT
without my written consent, but you may where applicable, charge a
nominal fee for duplication.

Try QSORT for 30 days, and if you're not happy with it, give it away
to somebody else and don't ever use it again. But if you find that
it's a handy little Windows tool, and you continue to use it, please
register it by sending me $20.00 in U.S. funds along with a self-
addressed-stamped-envelope, and I'll send you a registration number.

I don't promise to provide support of any kind for this product, however
if you are a registered user, and have questions or suggestions, you can
write to me at the below address or send me EMail at: LSCC@ix.netcom.com

Questions about Site Licensing Discounts can also be send to me via either
Snail-Mail (the U.S. Postal Service) or Email.
