        DDATE is a utility program that lets you delete files from
        your floppy or hard disks by date.  DDATE is able to search 
        all directories and sub-directories.  DDATE can also search 
        directories which are "Read Only" and "Hidden".  
                        
        Switches [Optional]:
                The /s switch will tell DDATE to search all the 
                directories and sub-directories on the current
                working drive.
                
                The /d switch will turn off the file delete 
                confirmation. DDATE automatically deletes files, 
                with dates that match the one you typed with the 
                command, without your consent. 
                
                      !!! BE CAREFUL AND RESPONSIBLE!!!
                
        You can use any one of these date formats for a valid 
        date entry:
                n-n-n    n-n-nn    n-nn-nn    nn-n-n                   
                nn-n-nn    nn-nn-n    nn-nn-nn
        Slashes ("/") are also legal separators that can be used
        instead of hyphens ("-").
        
        To see instant help from DDATE just type "DDATE" without
        a date. 
        
        DDATE is "free" of charge for you to use, which means I am 
        not liable for any data loss that may occurr during use.
